Must Watch Now! 2-Ingredient Body Wash Recipe!

[@amandadawn5740]

Thank you so much, Dora! With inflation taking over the household budget, I'm looking to make more things myself, to save money. Body wash, among other things, has become so expensive. This looks simple, fun, and could be a huge money saver for my household. Really great idea! Just finished grading up some soap, and am excited to get started.

[@CreativeBathLab]

Wonderful!

[@pammywammy]

I am grading up some soap also, but have a question for you. What are you using for a preservative, or you even using any. I was thinking Poly 80. What is your opinion?

[@believerinhumanity]

try the body wash at dollar store

[@salima9722]

Wow! Thank you. I just made body wash, per your instructions. It came out perfect. I added coconut oil, a coconut fragrant , with a bit of vegetable glycerin.❤️

[@CreativeBathLab]

Sounds great! I LOVE hearing this!!!!

[@taylure5433]

This is amazing! I just tried it with melt and pour and it came out so nice and creamy. Thank you!!

Love this comment😂

[@azlewashington5132]

Well since it’s coming from a bar soap yes since the bar already has all the ingredients

[@joelpocalips]

Might as well go for a better natural soap bar instead of these that have chemicals. So, this is perfect since you're adding the water making it last longer. I love trying to Make things myself. Such a great video!

[@FASTONKADZONGOLA]

I really thank you mama. This is amaizing. Thank you

[@creolenolamix1164]

Baby!!! I don't know how you came up with this one. GENIUS i would say!!! Anyway!! what a easy way to do body bath wash out of body soap. Love it.

[@handcraftedbyhelen1963]

I got so excited when I saw this video, it looks so thick and luxurious. I am a cold process soap maker and seller, and i thought it might be a way of using up off cuts, and beveling shavings etc. I have just tried it with a Santa soap that didn't sell, and it looked lovely when they mixed (it was a red and white soap) it made such a pretty pink, but alas, it hasn't got thick at all, it has stayed a really thin mixture, so it doesn't look like it will work with my recipe. Oh well a bit of a shame but keep up your amazing videos, you are such an inspiration to me, and do some very inventive products.

[@Chadica14]

what you put xanthan gaum or gur guam?

[@handcraftedbyhelen1963]

Neither as Dora only used grated soap and water

[@CreativeBathLab]

Helen!!! I haven’t heard from you in a while. Glad to hear from u! You can still save it! Add a bit of crothix… or try adding more soap & less water! My point here is that u can DEFINITELY save it!!!

[@handcraftedbyhelen1963]

Thanks for replying Dora, I have been quietly watching all your videos and taking it all in. I wondered if I could just add more soap, or use a thickener, we cant get crothix here, but wondered about xanthum gum. I will give it a go, the other thing I am going to try is using it in a foaming pump bottle (have to get one) and see if it worked in one of those. I will keep trying 💜💙💚

[@CreativeBathLab]

@@handcraftedbyhelen1963 you have the right attitude for sure! Yes! 1. Try adding more soap. If it doesn’t work 2. Try a thickener- any thickener. Doesn’t have to be crothix. Believe me, it can be saved! The first 3-4 batches I tried with dove Olay & caress didn’t thicken at all. Then I added more soap & voila, worked like a charm!

[@tonyabrowninghikes]

I have a batch of soap that lost its scent and never came back after fully cured. I think I'll give this a try with that. Thank you

[@CreativeBathLab]

Do it, then let me know how that turns out. Watch out everyone - now Im on a hard soap to body wash kick.... I don't let these kicks go easily. lol

[@tonyabrowninghikes]

@@CreativeBathLab I will let you know for sure. I'll make a small batch this weekend.

[@nicolemitchell446]

I love this! I’m just getting back into soap making and although the formulation and performance is perfect, we got us some ugly bars! One looks like cheddar cheese but with the holes of a Swiss cheese. I also made a hot process where the mica didn’t mix evenly and looks like raw turkey mince 😂

[@CreativeBathLab]

I make cold process soaps and I fight with body wash so hopefully this will help 😂😂 and I recently found an almost exact replica of the bath and body works sweet on Paris recently and I am totally using that in this 🙃! That was my absolute favorite scent from there and then it just disappeared.

[@CreativeBathLab]

Good luck, let me know how it works out for you

[@x1dl]

did you end up making it? i also make cold process soap from scratch and i don’t think i am able to make body wash from it. it comes out like mashed potatoes, not creamy like hers :< i wonder what ingredient i’m missing

[@ladymsoaps]

@@x1dlI know this is long overdue but yea I did end up trying and failed. But after research on the bars she got the best results from I found the reason is because they are not actual soap, they’re beauty bars. So they’re made of surfactants rather than being actual soap made using lye and oils.so being that it was made of surfactants mainly is why it was able to come out a body wash like that.

[@j9696copper]

So, just as Handcrafted by Helen had issues, I have had the same. For one- my water/shaved soap wouldn't come to a boil at all. It just stuck to the bottom of the pan and burnt. Now it seems to be a mess. I transferred it to another pan (tried to pull out as much of the "burn" as I could) and added more water- Still no boil just wanted to burn. So I finally took it off heat and now trying to figure out what to do or how to save it

[@Helenjojoful]

The author of the video most likely is using a syndet type of soap which is not technically a soap. It's a combination of surfactants, thickeners, preservative etc. Traditional soap does not need a preservative because the pH is so high. Either way you'd be better of without making this recipe because there are so many potential issues that I don't even know where to start.

Once you added the water the preservative is not optional. The preservative is in soap is only calculated for soap. You don't see the bacteria but it's definitely there but it's still a good video.
