Making Activated Charcoal Facial Soap

[@debramartinez9652]

I just re-ordered another bar of the charcoal soap. One bar lasted me 6 months. I wash my face with it every day and I made my skin so smooth and clear. All blemishes are gone. I get so many complements on my skin. I am 59 years old and I had 25 year old women saying it's their goal to have skin like mine. I tell you, it's this charcoal soap that did it. I tried Biore charcoal soap but it dried my skin a bit. This is the soap to use if you want soft clear skin.

[@ArianeArsenault]

Debra Martinez awesome! I’m glad! Will be shipping out soon 😁

[@SoapyOaksFarm]

You really are the Celine Dion of soap making, love your videos.

[@Police644]

How cute! I love this comment!♥️🥰

[@vegangelo_29]

I am a Chemistry teacher and I am planning for my students to make a soap, until I saw your video. This video gave me a good idea for making a soap, infused with activated charcoal. When I was in college, I tried to make one but apparently, the act. carbon was just afloat or it didn't mix well. Luckily, now I learned that I should mix it with the essential oil before adding the lye water. Thank you. God bless you!

[@zubedadahir8373]

Hi Ariane. You are my inspiration. I make some of my own products using some ingredients from Africa. Using your way of mixing staff together has made my life easier. I love watching your videos. When I start watching them I don't want to stop until my kids say Ariane is your celebrity. You are my celebrity for sure.

[@viridian8258]

Btw teatreeoil also goes very good in combination with peppermint and/or lavender (I'm a hairdresser and we've got a shampoo with that mixture an d I love it)

[@ArianeArsenault]

Odo Ital yes I know and I do have other products blending tea tree and lavender but I wanted to try something different

[@viridian8258]

An I bet this soap smells delicious. I gotta repeat my self it's a shame I can not order your products from Germany

[@aetinvtarpara6902]

What is name of essential oil company which are you using ma'am?

[@zusujara]

I know is mostly a face soap but I have serious problems with acne due some hormones unbalance, so my back started to cover to with acne. Nowadays I used also for my body and my back is recovering. Far the best soap for this problem!!! Highly recommend!!!

[@TwoWitchyMoons]

Thank you for this awesome video! I scrolled down pretty far to see if anyone had suggested it yet and didn't see it, but you can eliminate the soda ash from showing up on your soap (and it won't affect your soap setting up at all) by just spraying the soap down with rubbing alcohol before it sets up after you pour it into the mold. You can spray it on the finished tops or cut bars and it'll prevent the ash from forming.

[@judyD.]

I want that log cutter and huge mold. You have the best equipment

[@traciademello4460]

I got my order of this soap in today. my youngest daughter is so happy. haha we know sometimes a young woman's skin can get a bit upset. this should do very nicely. Merci, Madame!

[@ninarivers]

Great soap! Thanks for the tip about the castor oil, I recently made a soap that thickened up way too quickly and I couldn't figure out why, now I know it was too much castor oil!

[@nangahndome2145]

Great.

[@jinxydoll]

Your work space is a major goal. Wow. I'll be happy just to have a bigger table!

[@vampyrelilo]

I drool over your set up. Wish I had the equipment, space, and skills

[@michaeljones1715]

Wow that poured really nicely and looks great. so that you are aware heating honey in the microwave will destroy the beneficial properties at any heat you are better off heating it gently with warm water. Well done on the nice big block.

[@AntheaNairhappyA]

Thank you so much for sharing. Watching your videos helped me so much in understanding soap making not forgetting your valuable tips and explanation 👍💯

[@tracie8619]

Your soap are so beautiful as well as the quality of your videos. You are so very talented and thank you for demonstrating your artistic talent. I also have purchased several of your soaps and absolutely LOVE them.

[@vorswijkismael9621]

hello how are you I live in Suriname I want to know more about making soap ...maybe you are on Facebook or can I reach you via wathsap ...I just started making soap

[@anarerazedar991]

I love that you go through this step by step and make sure that we all understand how to handle different ingredients. Keep up the good work because the soap looks fantastic and I bet it is even better for your skin. :)

[@myab3369]

You're my inspiration in making soaps. I'm so new to this venture. I am actually planning to make this kind of soap, can you please write down your recipe for this soap? It would greatly appreciated. More vids please🥰

[@OZARKMEL]

Beautiful! Great idea regarding adding another EO to cut down on the Tea Tree....it's not a scent I care for so I may just try this. Thank you :)

[@jorgediaz780]

Soy Colombiano y vivo en un pueblo de España que se llama Gandia de la comunidad de Valencia, llegué hace un año y vi su página y me gustó mucho, ahora la sigo a pesar de que no se el idioma pero me defiendo. Quiero darle las gracias por todo lo que enseña con las claces en videos

[@vickynichols7990]

Beautiful! I just receive my order from my supplier today with intent on making charcoal soap today. First video suggestion in my feed just now was yours! The universe must be telling me something!!! 😃

[@oranit9447]

Hi! Love your videos. I watched so many of your videos and have gotten inspired. Can you please make a video for a beginner with a recipe.? Thanks

[@AromaDelightBeautyCareProducts]

Hi Ariane, I started off watching your videos long before I was ready to make soap. I still love watching them.

[@tencyross3156]

I absolutely love all of your videos! Thank you for making such good precise entertaining videos to inspire some of us at home soap makers.

[@immaculateorganicsoaps3533]

You are awesome!! I make an activaed charcoal soap hot process. I coul not believe that your CP soap did not hit trace faster with the essential oils in there.

[@jeanne1271]

Wow !!! You’ve come so far !!! Just look at your little slice of heaven !!! So happy for you !!! Been watching your videos since the beginning , you go girl ❤️❤️❤️

[@barbrahatereire4682]

You inspire me to be a Soap maker 💟💟💟💟🇺🇬from Uganda. Loved soap

[@danwalsh6919]

Well, you sold me ! Just placed a little order with some of this nice soap included! Keep those videos coming - love them.

[@lisafacciponti7223]

I really appreciate your videos, Ariane. They are clear, calm, and focused, very helpful to me as I continue to learn more about soap-making. Thank you, so much. :)

[@lindachandler2293]

Beautiful work. Everything seems to go so smoothly. Have you ever had a huge batch that failed? I can't even imagine trying to get away with a batch this big!

[@simphonyxo1494]

You are such a pleasure to watch Ariane!

[@relivestaybeautiful7632]

A simple and beautiful soap.

[@Artiefrog]

I wish you sold a book with recipes.

[@nogeorge1162]

She does share some on Patreon I think

[@dianahaynes8521]

Tiffany has

[@NYHellCat77]

She wont cause she sells her own soaps and lotions

[@50Scarlet]

The videos are ok, if you wish to get an inspiration,but she never shares recipes, if you wish to learn, go to 101 soaping. There are many options in getting the recipes until you learn to combine yours.

[@cryingbroken8824]

I think we ALL DO!

[@AllieSchott]

I was inspired by you so I am hopefully opening my own soap shop

[@vaiqdabom]

Did you open it? How is it going?

[@margieadams4622]

grapeseed oil avocado oil and coconut oil are great for skin. grapeseed oil is said to tighten the cologens in the skin reducing wrinkles

[@kusnezoff8705]

I finally subscribed, it is just a no brainer because we want to make our own products and you show us how so the only think left to do was join you.

[@EasyMealschannel]

I know this is 4 years old video and you are a very talented soap maker.... but as a cook i have to say this do not put honey to the microwave or backing stuff and dont add honey to the boiling water ( not warm water.... it is good ) if the honey reach over 90-95° C it can be poisonous. plz ... this isnt a hate coment.... love u ❤

[@tessagalindo9924]

I am a newbie in soap making. I was wondering, how do you determine the volume of oils or lye water or charcoal that you mix? do you use soap calculator? btw, I super love how you make your soap! super neat! 😍 I wish I could make one someday.

[@daphneydonegan5680]

Go to soapclac

[@lindachandler2293]

I love watching you work your magic.

[@TheOriginalOrkdoop]

I have been watching all of your videos! ❤ I have noticed in a lot of videos your camera doesn't auto focus or something, it's often blurry. But still I love watching, it's very relaxing.

[@Mandiiixd]

Yes!! Another video! And facial soap bar! Thank you so much!!! 💜😊

[@cillawalker9]

I find your tutorials so motivating, thanks! Could you share where you purchase your moulds and cutting decks from? Thanks so much.

[@shesellsfish]

I love watching your videos. You make it look so effortless to make these lovely soaps full of organic goodness.

[@poppypavot6806]

Hey Ariane, I like to let you know that I love your videos and your passion making them. I‘ve always enjoyed watching them, even before I made my first soap. I wondered wheter you have ever made a video about how you started your soap making business? If no I really would like to know how you got to making soap. What were your first experiences with making soap, what did fascinate you about them? I‘m really curious to hear the answers to those questions. Love from switzerland

[@noranoni2907]

Am so in love with your soaps, wish to learn

[@recipefromnature]

Charcoal soap is great, good luck, sister

[@LoveIsAlwaysHereChooseLove]

Does anyone else find that charcoal soap stains clothes? And your video is captivating, Ariane! Thank you!

[@JonMcPhalen]

How often are you confused with Ally Sheedy? I saw a soap-making demo at a fair a couple years ago, and am now really wanting to try it.

[@maxineromero7873]

I absolutely love watching your videos

[@asmashokri1911]

Thank you for this video it was amazing you convinced me to do it, but I want to know the weight of ingredients if it possible ☺️❤️❤️❤️i am from sudan

[@amyhartley4863]

You have really awesome molds and a cutter that is large enough to fit the mold, where did you order it at?

[@danielollis1376]

I do enjoy watching people make soap! I do have a question though: where is the large stick blender kitchenaid sent you?

[@LadybugLaneSoaps]

Hello from Auburn, WA, USA Those look wonderful! What a great set up you have too :)

[@kmv3280]

Thanks for sharing your soap recipe.❤️ Loved it ❤️ Regards

[@TheTferrer]

Recommendation - instead of canola oil please use avocado oil. Activated charcoal is used in the medical emergency field to treat patients who have ingested poison and/or large amount prescription drugs to quickly neutralize these substances. Can you explain the benefits activated charcoal on the skin? I am curious -Thanks

[@areefali9442]

Your videos are so valuable and excellent

[@dakota5660]

would also be cool to use lavender scent and make split batch for pattern, use purple mica powder to draw attention to the lavender

[@ArianeArsenault]

Sure, but I created this soap in part so that my employees could use it. One is allergic to lavender

[@aipooalice]

This soap is so cool 😍 probably because it’s all black!

[@makeit2649]

She has made clear in many video and posts that she does not share recipes. The point of the videos is to advertise the soaps she sells in her shop and on her website. As a bonus, we get to learn some of her techniques and suggested ingredients, but not her proprietary recipes. Much hard work and expense goes into developing those recipes, and she must make her living and support her family from the sales. Many good soap recipes are available online from other sources, and she links to some of those in the description box on the videos where she is using a public recipe.

[@melissah1140]

Can this soap be made without the palm oil? Do you have a recommended substitution?

[@caboogie]

Would be helpful if you could also educate us on costs so we can figure out how to actually make a profit. Have rapidly fallen in love with these videos. Thank you kindly.

[@BarrenFieldsofDust]

Thank you for this very informative video. I quite respect how you share your detailed recipe. I was wondering what is your capacity of your mould? how much do you cook per batch? Thanks

[@kikisoaps6544]

It looks like 30. Or 40 pounds of soap. It looks like each bar weighs about 6 oz. Each.

[@cindyneby9509]

Hi Arianne! Your videos are wonderful! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I was wondering if you ever use 91% Isopropl Alcohol to spray the soap tops to prevent soda ash? And also, do you ever use Sodium Lactate to harden your bars? Thank you in advance!

[@mythiscollections8360]

I like a way you deal with large volumes... That's amazing....I subscribed to your channel.... All your videos are just wonderful!!!

[@jennifertejeda4275]

I am fairly new to your channel but I'm LIVING for your videos! Small question, is there a specific reason to use aluminium containers instead of plastic or glass? Does it help preserving the temperature maybe? Thank you so much!

Never use aluminum. Use stainless steel or chemical grade plastic..

Hi Ariane!!! I hope you can read this message although you have a ton of new videos ahead,,,, by the way the video is awesome!! very instructive, I'm from Mexico starting my own Beauty product Company.

What a wonderful soap! You used to make shampoo bars. Do you still do that? I would love to see the tea tree combo in a shampoo bar as it would be awesome for scalp psoriasis. Most of the shampoos out there have tea tree but they load it down with pine tar and it smells like you have put asphalt on your hair!

[@quetzallishalom9525]

I loved this!!!! How can I measure the ingredients for a 1kg bar???

A really nice video to watch; but I was thinking if that small amount of charcoal is actually doing anything in that large batch besides coloration.
