Greetings from Maryland (USA). I don't know that I would ever make my own soap but found you to be quite delightful, easy to watch and interesting. At age 58, I'm new to the wet shaving/safety razor world and still trying to figure out the pucks, loading a brush and the best razor blades. The only thing I can say for sure is that it gets a little easier each day.

Ellys, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge for free! You are amazing! ❤🤩 I’d like to share my experience making this recipe today. I started by just mixing with a whisk, but I found the texture too thin, so I decided to use a mixer, fearing I hadn’t mixed it enough and might ruin the recipe. The mixture thickens very quickly due to the soywax, and for those planning to make it for sale, be careful, as it’s hard to pour it neatly into the moulds. I’ll be back soon to say whether my recipe worked and share my opinion. 😊

Hi Elly, I have just made your shaving soap and it was so easy thank you very much. It was a first for me using soy wax and bentonite clay. I was going to use the stick blender as it was taking a few minutes to come to trace but just as well I didn't, wow just got there in time. I think it was because I used ice for my water. Thoughly enjoyed making it. Once again thank you very much.

Hi Elly! Seen your video after soo long… I wanted to make shaving soap and got the perfect recipe…. Firstly I thought how to make soap with soy wax? Secondly when it done I was rubbing it on my hand and it’s not lathering at all 🤭 I thought all my hard work gone waste.. But! After that I use my husband’s shaving brush and after rubbing it sometimes it’s started lathering… and after that I was like …. ‘YES! Elly I did it’ 🥰🥰🥰 Thanks for the recipe 😘😘😘 Lots of love from India 🇮🇳

Thank you, Elly, for your organized thoughtful teaching. It is lovely to hear an Aussie too. I have been wanting to make soap for at least 40 years and your video gave me the confidence. I made this yesterday and didn't have a spritzer bottle to spray and as a result I got soda ash. I can see it has soda ash on top and it is speckled down the debth of it ...about 1 cm. Is that ok to use? Does it just reduce the quality somehow?

Hi Elly, thanks for your amazing videos. I just made this and about a week later it seems a bit lye heavy still when I test the pH. Can I recook this as a hot batch soap? I am not sure what I did wrong, as I very precisely followed your excellent instructions, but it did seem to take a long time to trace then went thick quickly - perhaps the essential oils? It did transform like normal soaps then just took ages .. I am concerned that it solidified simply because it got cool enough to because of the soy wax...

Thanks for the video. Apart from hard/soft water, what is the most prominent feature/ingredient/process to ensure a residual slickness? Many shaving soaps will leave you with a moist but 'sticky' skin, one can basically pass a razor over your skin once or twice, but once the lather is removed by the blade, that's it. Then there are others where I can do stroke after stroke (up to 10 strokes with a straight razor) and the slippery sensation simply remains. The soaps in the latter category also takes quite some time to rinse from your brush.
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 2 жыл бұрын
I think that commercially made shaving soaps have more residual slick to them, whereas this performs more like a normal soap and washes off quite readily. To be honest, I have not used this soap a lot myself - mainly made for friends and regular face shaving folk!

Hi. I really loved your simple recipe :-). 2 questions a). did u measure soy wax as a stearic acid in soapcalc? b). Only GB 464 is available in my country, is this ok to use in making this soap?
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 2 жыл бұрын
I think it's better to use the wax without additives if you can get it. The wax is called 'hydrogenated soy oil' in soap calc :)

Hi Elly I made this shaving soap yesterday and it came Our crumbly like feta cheese. My group is telling me too much Lye - what do you think . I can post pic here but the round ones seem ok and are curing but the rectangular ones broke in half

Hi Joanne, sorry for the extremely late reply. Any chance you didn't wrap and gel it? This soap can become crumbly if it's exposed to air too early. Needs a good warm wrap up for the first couple of days I think.

Hi Elly, could you please share the details for your scales (big and small). I have some scales but after using them for a year I feel they aren't the best and I always struggle measuring my EO. This recipe looks so good too! I've made shaving soap before but not with soy wax, so excited to try this one. Thanks, Sam.

Thanks Sam! My big scale is a Salter brand, which is quite accurate and I love it for bread making as well www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/1073789410/salter-leaf-electronic-kitchen-scale-5kg-black My little scale is just a cheap 'gram scale' from ebay. You just want one that can measure as low as a tenth of a gram (or less). I find the small scale great for weighing tiny amounts of things accurately.

Great question Stella, you can use a wooden spoon but the lye will eat away at it somewhat. Stainless steel or silicone spoons are best.

Hello Elly, great recipe, a question how long it can last once done, thanks for your contribution you are fantastic, la calculadora que usa es soapCalc, If so, this would be like a fully hydrogenated soybean.Thanks for your answer

hi elly , loved your video , what are the percentages that you used for this recipe ? and what did you put as soy wax in soapcal ? (cant find it)
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking
@EllysEverydaySoapMaking 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jose, you can work out the percentages by dividing each part by the total and multiplying the result by 100. Soap calc is hydrogenated soy oil in soap calc :)
Looks can be deceiving. This is one of my TOP FIVE soap recipes!
