I think I am even going to try a moringa or avocado soap wish me luck ..you have inspired me but if ...you can show your way of how you may make either one I would be so greatful i will tune in to watching that video ..Now here comes my question what benefits does the goats milk soap offer if I may ask ...I used it once but I just found it to be to dry and inexperienced I forgot to add the oil.soo..yeah it was a hot mess ..Now they do have the shea butter soap .But I think I will keep it practical and simple it is best..But if you have any tips for me like adding any herbs or flowers or even raw honey to the soap I am open to your suggestions thank you so much for listening to this long message I just want to learn how to do it right .😊 Like how I am learning how to make my own homemade butters that benefit my whole family from hair to skin..But I am still even learning how to do that .Bye have a great day.

[@malindacarr933]

I’ve been using Turmeric for years in my teas and food, it’s a wonderful herb. I’m happy that I came across your terrific video a week ago. I decided to try making the soap, well I didn’t do something right 😂 I ordered Shea Butter as my base, I couldn’t get it to melt. Will you please advise me as to what I did incorrectly? I did the double broiler method using a glass bowl. I’ll appreciate your feedback. Thanks, for sharing your inspiring video 😊

[@michelletalbot1646]

Malinda hi Malinda when you say you used the she butter base and did the double boiler method did you use a she butter melt and pour base? Or just the Shea butter? Because to do soap you need Shea butter soap base and to microwave or cook over the stove to melt completely. If you’re doing body butter then you just use Shea butter in a double boiler method with whatever additives you want and hit the fridge for a bit then whip it up. It sounds like you did the directions for Shea butter body butter but expected the soap consistency. I hope this helps and you don’t take offense just trying to help ☺️

[@malindacarr933]

Michelle, I did it! Thanks to your method my turmeric soap came out perfect 🤩 Thank you 🙏

[@michelletalbot1646]

Malinda Carr oh my goodness I’m so happy for you ☺️ I know how awesome a feeling it is to get diys done correctly or at least how YOU want them done lol especially if it takes an attempt or two. Congratulations 🎊🎉 and I hope you enjoy every moment using your very own soap made with your own two hands doll 👏👏

[@GROWingInLov3]

Hi Malinda! I'm happy to hear that you have been enjoying Turmeric for years and I'm sorry that your first attempt at the melt and pour did not work out, but it seems that the Shea butter might not be an actual soap base and rather the actual oil?? Ahhh I see the thread between yourself and @Michelle...lol..thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and I'm glad it worked out once you tried the recipe again. Happy soapin 😊

Hi there 😊. I personally have not tried to replace the alcohol, but may I suggest pouring and stirring your melt and pour slowly when placing them in the molds. This may help to reduce the bubbles. The purpose of the alcohol is to actually prevent the bubbles and break them up though, so perhaps it's a matter of not spraying enough. Hope this information helps you. Thanks for watching!

[@lovethodiase2851]

@@GROWingInLov3 ok thanks , why is it that the soap used is hard to dissolve on heat?

[@GROWingInLov3]

Hi friend! From what I've heard the asanti soap base can be difficult to melt due to its high glycerin content, solid oils, or natural additives like shea butter or essential oils. These ingredients raise the melting point, requiring a slow and steady melting process at low heat to prevent burning or clumping. Additionally, overcooking can cause the soap to lose moisture, making it harder and less pliable during the melting process. Hope you find this information helpful 🙂
