This soap is now mature and it is absolutely wonderful! I used no scent or coloring. Works miracles for my grandsons skin as since birth he has had skin issues. Soap lathers well and leaves a clean scent! Thank you

[@chriskelly509]

I tried some Olive oil soap and I've decided to just take the plunge and just start making my own

[@LashusJourney]

@@chriskelly509nice I’m here learning, I’m going to make my first one as soon as my LYE deliver

[@hootsmagoon]

I made the soap just like you said, only I didn’t use anything to scent it. I then let the soap cure for a year. OMG this is the best soap ever. Thank you very much.

[@SunshinePearl]

Good to know. I'm willing to try this recipe out. Question for you: Where did you keep the soap to cure for that long? Did you cover the bars to avoid dust? Thanks in advance!

[@hootsmagoon]

@@SunshinePearl I kept in a cardboard box on the plastic knitting board and covered with paper towel. The box is on a shelf in my basement.

[@marialourdescallejo3925]

I went into this page because me and my aunt got fond and fell in love with Olive oil soaps straight from Jerusalem. It is so soft and gentle to the skin. But we didn't want to wait for someone to go to the Middle east or in Jerusalem just to get this soap. Usually we wait for our friends to go to Jerusalem to have this soap for us. Luckily, though I found this awesome video in soap making tutorial. Thanks you soo much for this video we can now have it in our very own bathrooms as well.

[@Eleidig007]

Soap from Palistine is the best i agree

[@littylazaneo]

People normally wait for a year for the 100% olive oil soap to be ready and hard

Made this soap except used dandelion infused olive oil & I absolutely love it thanks for making this easy to follow video !

[@Crochetcomegethooked]

Hi Becky! I was looking through my Prime one day and came across this video and decided to look you up on KZbin! I had never made soap before and this video made me confident to try! I am now making all kinds of soap with this recipe as my base for friends and family. Thank you so much for all your videos!

[@ornkanravee]

I like your video so much after watched many of other person video. I like your clear voice and short conclusion of describing. Your smile made me smile too. Thank you very much for your recipe. 😍

[@ValerieJohnson-i5n]

I’m overflowing with gratitude 🙏 for you sharing your cherished homestead recipe and techniques. You’ve truly kindled a spark of inspiration in me to create soap for my loved ones 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. I’m a firm believer in the beauty of simplicity! I do have one query - could you kindly share where you procure your lye beads and essential oils? The quality of ingredients can indeed be the deciding factor between a good and a great recipe. 🌿🧼

[@MDC2020]

I never worry about getting my soap to trace. I just mix it well then pour it in the mold. Not allowing it to trace allows me to pour it in my mold and it self levels nicely

[@absunshine6906]

Does it take longer for it to become solid if your not mixing it longer??

[@godfamilycountry4211]

Awesome soap. Mine came out great. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. Great teacher.

[@ericlaflamme8625]

Thank you for this :). With the confinement it’s a great time to try making soap for the first time :)

Thanks Becky. I always wanted to know how to make domestic things.As a child at three years old , I tried to make perfume from Cuscus grass.!( smile) didn't succeed.

Thanks for the video. What happens if you use regular tap water instead of distilled? Would rain water be okay to use?

[@Erica-yr3gf]

Do you not warm up the oil? Cold oil warm lye? Commercial soap melts fast because they want to sell more. That is why I’m making home made soap. Thank you for sharing your recipe. God bless👍❤️🌺🌎

[@jorunnhoney721]

Hi! What kind of colour did you use in this video? Just food colour?oil based?

[@jonathonandketurah]

Instead of using olive oil would it work with MCT and tallow and Squalane oil as long as the fat still equals the 50 ounces? (I have sub derm, and malassazia safe oils like MCT and squalane don’t feed it, that is why I make my own soap, it’s hard to buy).

[@innocentqueen8047]

[@RiseRevive365]

[@twinfin8571]

Did you use eucalyptus essential oil? What coloring do you use and where do I buy that? Thanks so much. I’ve never made soap but I think it’ll be fun and a better product for my skin.

[@abbeywaitt5011]

Love your channel! I'm watching from the UK, so when you want the Lye and water to be 100 degrees do you mean Fahrenheit or Celcius?

[@thibomeurkens2296]

Fahrenheit probably, it’s annoying we don’t have the same measurements around the word right?!

[@sherazade8562]

she is considering 100 Fahrenheit , that means 37.7 Celcius

[@juliemarr65]

Hello. I like this recipe, and I measured everything exact. I did exactly what you did going along with you, however, my mixture is more like a gravy and isn't clump thickening ad yours. I pulsed with the stick blender a few times and manually stirred. How many times do I do this before the thickness is achieved...I hate if I ruined 50 oz of olive oil. Help😒

[@cassidygallagher766]

Is this considered hot or cold process?

[@hungsu9204]

I bought some olive oil/baking soda soap from Palestine and it is amazing. I tried to make the 2 guys soap but it came out soft. Hoping it will cure.

[@fun56shine]

Wow, Jean Willis, may i ask you where you bought the olive oil/baking soda soap? i love that.Love & Light

[@Eleidig007]

Baking soda was a mistranslation he said lye

[@nowirehangers2815]

No such thing as baking soda soap from Palestine

[@purplelissh]

They translate lye to baking soda that is why Love

[@the3xtr3mist]

I did this for the first time today and I'm thinking of placing the soaps in 2-3 places separately in my wardrobes while curing so that the essential oils scent keeps my clothes smelling fresh. has anyone tried this is that a good idea ?

[@aydin3931]

Becky Sunshine I just wanted to get your permition to use this recipe to sell it my self! Thanks!

You could have used the bottle (I kept my empties) that lye came in to mix the lye and water. Put the top back on and shake it. No fumes just be sure to loosen cap to release pressure every now and then.

Hi I watch a lot of you videos and this is one of them. How would I weigh colladial oats in this recipe. I am a beginner soaper

[@littylazaneo]

Like two tablespoons per pound and discount some of the water to dissolve it and add after trace. Because it can cook and give salad trace

Love that bowl!! What kind is that?

Thank you!! Can we use it for hair as well?

[@purplelissh]

I as of 2 1/2 years only use this on my hair it is so wonderful this is a awesome castile soap I cut them is extra then slices (I highly recommend and wash my hair with it and because the slices are so then soap does not get wasted

[@ginag7]

Can you use Lye Powder? or does it need to be Lye Beads?

[@farmsteadpreps]

Instead of olive oil, could one use avocado oil? Thank you.

[@iwannaapple7190]

Avocado is softer oil. Olive is too but its unique property is it gets harder and harder as it cures. But I say go for it. Why not? I took the time to figure it for you. She is superfatting at 6.6%. I recommend 3.5% so I'll show you both and how to do it for your mold amount. Measure your mold = W x D x H x .42 = oil amount your mold will do. (this takes into account of other liquids also). Then calculate your lye. Lye = oilAmt(convert to grams not ounces) x .133 = Answer is in grams only. Now subtract 3.5% to 6.6%. Every one usually subtracts 5% from the lye amount and that is the lye that you use. 100% lye could result in crusty, cracked, not as good for skin soap. Now you need water. You ALWAYS need at the very least the same weight as your lye but I wouldn't recommend that. Makes soap to hot, might crack or be lye heavy with crust. I recommend multiplying your lye amount by 1.85 and that will be your water amount. This video, for example, is 2.38 x lye amount= amount of her water. If you don't have a stick blender you can use a wisk. Mix till you see a solid color and no darker spots and if you can bring it to a slight trace that would be better. Notice the top of her soap batter. It looks shiny. Almost like silk on top. Thats what it looks like when its mixed up good. It DOES NOT HAVE TO HAVE TRACE. Just make sure its all solid in color as best as you can when you pour. Good luck. BTW, 50oz of avocado oil at 3.5% SF would be 337 grams of water, 182 grams of lye. 5% SF = 179 grams of lye, 331 grams of water. Either one of these would work.

You can't "just dump a little in there"!!! There are safe usage rates for EO and FO!

Please please check the safe usage rate for any fragrance you add to your bath and body products. It's just smart soaping!

[@willr7849]

The benefit of this recipe is that you avoid artificial fragrance and colors which can irritate the skin, they just aren’t needed.

[@JayHendricksWorld]

Ideally, metal utensils should be avoided when using lye, especially pewter and aluminium. Wood or plastic is better.

[@karijaneify]

Oof...not wood, lye and other alkalines degrade it and will cause splintering. And a good quality stainless steel, like 18 gauge is great for soaping. But not aluminum or tin. I don’t know about pewter.

[@zahabiyahusain2321]

[@niknabeelah7084]

Where can you buy lye

[@arabiantxn]

So what happens if it splashes

[@khione8044]

@Arabiantxn If it splashes on your skin, flush with COLD running water. Never use vinegar for a lye spill on the skin. You can use vinegar to neutralize a lye spill on a countertop/floors, but never with skin (water only). Vinegar neutralizes Lye but in the process, will cause an exothermic reaction (heat). It will burn your skin worse than just the lye/water would do.
