Earl Grey Tea Cold Process Soap Making

[@ChaiLatte13]

I've really appreciate your videos with no talking and just music. It's so peaceful and soothing to watch you make soap. Thank you for making this style of videos! This soap is a really pretty color combo.

Thank you 🥰🥰

I love it too...

[@drnttah]

It's interesting to learn that I could use hot lye straight away. Thanks.

I love a good cup of Earl Grey tea and I LOVE the aroma and flavor. I bet that soap smells fantastic!

I never would have imagined those colors together, but they're gorgeous!

[@susanboshaw3083]

I really like that mica line and that you used the tea as an exfoliant. ❤

I LOVE THIS❣️❣️❣️

[@geoffrayment7811]

Just wondering where you got the round mold you squashed the scraps into? I’ve never seen one other those before.

Beautiful soap, love your videos. If I may ask, where do you get your micas in such lovely large quantities? Amazing colors too! 😊❤️🧼

[@OpheliasSoapery]

I buy the containers from Amazon and I just order 1 pound bags from Nurture soap :)

The last time I used the lye water to melt my oils ,my batch was destroyed,and turned into an oily mess right after swirling it to perfection ,what happened ?The only other thing I did differently was not completely dissolving my sugar before adding it to the oils ,do you think that was the problem ?

[@dianam3836]

Hello, may I inquire about the temperature at which you begin incorporating the micas? Your blend appears wonderfully fluid 😍. I typically soap between 90 and 96 degrees, but my batter tends to thicken rapidly.

[@OpheliasSoapery]

I use the heat transfer method so my oils are around 100-110°F. There could be a couple causes of the batter thickening quickly. You could be stick blending too much and the fragrance could cause it.

[@fionaward8540]

Your soap looks lovely and I’ve still not yet tried the heat transfer method. If you don’t mind me asking, where did you get the soap press from that you use at the end? Being in the UK, there are not a lot of soap suppliers as it’s not really a trend, so I have bought a few items from the USA and my soap cutter from Russia, which have been brilliant. 😊

[@OpheliasSoapery]

It’s called a bath bomb or shampoo bar mold. If you have Etsy over there or Amazon you might be able to find one. I linked where I got mine in the description box :)

[@patt1136]

Beautiful! Was this previously steeped tea that was dried out or fresh tea?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Fresh tea :)

[@nabeelaijaz5395]

My soap solidify quickly during pouring can you mention the mistake? Kindly

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Could be a number of things, over mixing/ stick blending, accelerating fragrance oil too steep of a water discount. Most of the time it’s one of the first 2 :)

[@ohtheprofanity]

If you don’t mind me asking, where did you find the earl grey tea fragrance?

[@JM-sd5dt]

Brambeberry's Bergamot and Black Tea smells amazing. Here is the description from their website: It has notes of bergamot, lime, earl grey tea leaves, cucumber, beeswax, amber, and musk.

[@jennifergregory6730]

I'd check Nature's Garden, that's where she gets a lot of her fragrance oils

[@ohtheprofanity]

@@JM-sd5dt I'll check that out -- thanks!

[@ohtheprofanity]

@@jennifergregory6730 The description for their earl grey fragrance matches the one here, so I think you're right. Thanks for your help.

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Yes it’s from Natures Garden :)

[@geoffrayment7811]

Ah, don’t worry.i just saw an answer to my question.
