The the clay color is such a beautiful earthy green. Beautiful soap.

[@meflagg3741]

beautiful!!!

[@Marthawehrly]

I absolutely love the swirls!

[@christinelowndes4766]

Loved this video. You are so calm and clear. The soap looks lovely

[@ArianeArsenault]

Thank you!

[@hildebecker2647]

Who would believe that such a muddy colour can create a wonderful Pattern. I love it! And I love that you do not use micas. Nature creates the most beautiful colors itself.

[@pearsrtasty3326]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@winstonandwalter]

Thank you Ariane for always supporting small businesses around the world! You are such an inspiration! I can’t wait to see you make soap live at the conference! 🫢🙃

[@engwatch]

Omg, I LOved how she said: "This brings dignity to their income, just like the shea butter..". Omg..it strikes a chord..That shows what soul and character she has...So THAnk You!❤

[@mikesewchok5978]

I always learn from your videos...thanks so much! Awesome soap, love those swirls!!

[@boop7313]

Those bars are so beautiful and i can just imagine the glorious texture from that clay!

[@SirenaSpades]

Very pretty!

[@luckysportQuick]

I’m not a soap maker, but I make MP soaps occasionally. I love watching your videos. It’s so relaxing. And your soaps are always amazing.

[@ArianeArsenault]

MP is soap! You may not make soap professionally, but you are a soapmaker too. 🙃

[@NaturalMackie]

I love the colours.

[@jenivee7]

I love how they smell also!! I know what you mean you just wanna take a bite!! ❤

[@naasika6217]

Hi Ariane am watching from Ghana,I love your videos, I'm inspired by them. want to start a soap business and I need your help

[@lisahaasecustomsewing2106]

I always enjoy watching your makes. The fact that your product line is natural and simple when other makers use micas, glitters and complicated swirling techniques is refreshing. Good work.

[@ArianeArsenault]

I have an all natural line as well as a colourful line. People can choose what suits them best. ☺️

[@lynntrueman5149]

Ariane, I watched you make the soap at the conference and I loved it! I have watched so many of your videos and it was lovely to see you in person. Can you please tell me where you got your trays for curing your soap? It would be perfect for storing them all together.

[@ArianeArsenault]

Yes absolutely! The trays are from soapequipment.com

[@larimorefamily]

I really enjoyed the double camera angles! You and your team have really worked hard on a better presentation.

[@ArianeArsenault]

Thank you! When I have an extra pair of hands, I put them to good use! 🙂

[@joannelishman204]

i love your video's and also try to make sure i buy shea butter from a women's co-op; it has to be one of my favourite butters. I love the smoky sticky unrefined butter. However, unrefined cocoa butter- let me just say; yes it just smells delicious. SO good you want to take a bite. Erm - yep - did that - not so much any more 🤦‍♀😅

[@vernahrris5601]

Those are beautiful soap designs...I thought you'd swirled too much, but it is just right!

[@sl4983]

What a tough job you have! 😊

[@ArianeArsenault]

Well yes and no! Physical but not tough. 😊

@@ArianeArsenault I was being facetious 🙂 What a fun job it seems to me! To have your own soap business? 👍😊🧼

What I wouldn't give to get essential oil blend education from you.

There is a great website you can use called EOCalc 🙂

Is plants power cheaper than new direction aromatics?

Hi, do you still use the lye tank ( from soap equipment)? Thank you

[@cynthiacardinal3896]

what percentage of your total weight is essential oils that you put in it ?

Very beautiful soap 🧼 I'm just curious what is the dimension (measurement} of your soaps

The molds I am using are 14x16’’
