Lye is completely natural. It occurs naturally and doesn't require human intervention. Lye is nothing more than water that has passed through hardwood ashes. It's not a standard strength therefore we do regulate the strength but lye happens people. Lye just happens. We can use that natural process and make it whenever we want but it is just water that has run through hardwood ashes. Oldtime soapmakers made their own lye so it's traditional too.

[@erin9868]

Isn't lye or soda ash the only reason we really have soap to begin with, discounting very regional things like soap berries? I thought the Babylonians accidentally dripped animal fats into wood ashes from their cooking fires, and it soaponified, and then they realized it made things easier to clean.

[@elise1227]

@@erin9868 Yes

[@beckstheimpatient4135]

@@erin9868 Even people saponify >.> because fats do that in certain conditions. There are relatively few chemicals which aren't naturally occurring. Lye is natural and people seem afraid of it. Teflon isn't and I doubt the lye-haters refuse to use a new non-stick pan every year.

"Lye is unnatural"? Who's saying this? You can extract it from wood ash. That's how soap used to be made-- with ash and lard. It's not pleasant, but it's effective.

I believe she means the lye used by most soap makers today. :) It's probably not naturally-sourced.

She talked about this in the past it has to do with not being naturally occurring and has to be manufactured.

i really love the look of this bar, even the ashing on top makes it look a little more festive, even if it's technically considered "not good." Even the swirl is nice, its lazy and easygoing, not too busy and theres lots of colour mixed with the nice plain soap. the pomegranate flowers on top with the berries looks so nice too :D

[@sigispider]

I adore that swirl just how you did it. I'd really love it with a white and navy bar.

[@zelamorre1126]

I actually think that the ashing added a bit to the soap. It kind of looked frosted, which works with the theme of the bar.

Have you ever considered doing some of the slab molds as a smaller/mini cut for the bars of soap? Maybe sets of 3 one inch square soap bars (the equivalent of a single large bar). That way a single bar of soap can make 3 really great little stocking stuffers.

[@TopAnimeLoverEver]

Omg yes I would love this. Like, 12 dollars for the same amount as a regular block but it would be 3 small blocks so my family could each get one for christmas to sample : D I actually just bought my first bar from her for myself, and sliced it up into 5 chunks to ration out use. Was very enjoyable, and it's much easier to use a small little block for washing up : )

Hi Katie! Regarding Rakuten: It is not available in Europe. Also, I was curious as to where the money comes from, so I found out: They get paid by the companies for "sending you" to their page. They then share the money with their customers (aka you). They write, that the company generally pays for the click, that sends you to their page, and in this case, part of that payment ends back with you. I thought that was nice to know! Ps Also thank you for EVERYTHING. I did not even like soaps, and now I want to make them, but your videos are about so much more than soap. So thank you :-)

Lye can come from natural ingredients. Soaps were made before there were labs to make the NaOH. And the chemical reaction used to make and manufacture NaOH could hypothetically occur in nature. AND micas and oxides also occur in nature. I could say only the synthetic fragrance is the unnatural ingredient.

Mum got fed up of Xmas dinner one year after 8 work or friend group parties before Dec15th. So on Xmas Eve, she ordered an Indian takeaway for collection just before Midnight closing, and we got given free samosas someone ordered and didn't show up to collect. Shoved it in the fridge immediately, and just reheated all the foil containers in the oven on Xmas Day, and it was actually fun to have the difference.

I actually really like those simple soaps a lot! It looks very calm and just like a mistletoe that's hanging above the front porch on a snowy december/january evening

[@chilibeans66]

This is my favorite type of swirl, so pretty!!

[@ktw72]

I actually really loved the way you poured this. It reminded me of snow covered pine trees

[@emie395]

This is my most favorite soap so far!! I want💖☁️ (couldn't find a soap emoji so I thought a cloud would look like bubbles)

[@maggiebauer7533]

I think the green will mellow out into a nice green!!😀

[@apriltruran1592]

I love how you make your soap making videos so interesting lol and the soap looks amazing i love the red flower amd how green the green stayed

[@floramew]

I'll look into Rakuten, for sure. But "buying the Christmas gifts you were already going to buy"... no lmao. I don't know that many people and I'm broke 😂

TIME TO DIY!!! 💗

Same tho...

[@Banana-gk4go]

Also hi Katie!

[@lazyperfectionist3978]

I don't know that many people either. You have any skills related to making stuff? Because if you do you could just buy supplies and make something handmade like I usually do, even if it's just a handmade card or two

[@edwardvalentino3835]

I personally like the totally random appearance from bar to bar. Looks great

[@karagrant5037]

It’s so beautiful and I love the simplicity of it.

[@jakefarm7833]

I want to take a bite out of one of those bars of soap

[@jacobking7840]

I've used Rakuten for all of my Chewy orders since I got my cats, and honestly, it has really helped so much!

[@puppychowpuppychow601]

This whole thing is cute but the soap is just plain awesome.

[@lilannegirl03]

I really *actually* like the way this soap turned out! 😍

[@DonutBoxers]

i slept through the artisan coffee soap release and i’ll be DAMNED if i sleep through the release for this soap!

[@megansaumure802]

Last year's evergreen soap is still getting used in my shower 😂 started using it in August 🙈 the bars are huge!

[@judevicious3333]

I love everything about this soap and to be honest for this soap I'm not even mad at the soda ash. It kind of adds to it. Also I don't th ass no you should change the swirl. I love it the way it is ❤

[@msknottyknits]

Awe! This soap was my first ever RS purchase! Fingers crossed that I can snag another bar!

[@LocdNative]
