Seems to me to be just another administrative exercise in ‘extortionate’ Hell for soap makers. More regulatory Control. Thankfully I don’t reside in the UK, nor sell my soaps…despite many requests. Yet, I do find it interesting that those self same Regulations do nothing to prevent the unnecessary use of neurotoxic Additives that are rife through the Soapmaking world…if the many You Tubers’ usage is any indication. And then there’s the Group 2B classified carcinogen Titatium Dioxide….

I came here from your link, Soap Challenge Support team 🥰. Really enjoyed that one and wanted to see the in-depth tutorial. So happy I did so. This content strengthened what I saw in my first video and reinforced what I learned. Lisa, you’re a fabulous teacher and well, Thank you for sharing your gift. So here’s a little sharing and pssssst-every word is true and what my heart and brain say together. (Sometimes they are like a naughty set of twins. Lol) 1) voice and voice over work: calming and you are careful with word choices. Clear, simple yet not “babyish”. 2) maths and details. Perfection. Easy to follow and for someone who LOVES the technical background-yay. And for someone who is scared of the maths and calculations-it was easy to follow. 3) your working and then using the voice over made it clear. (I find your style is relaxing-not a stressed or worried voice if something happens and you must figure out why. I do know this happens (but I have to say I follow your philosophy-plan for the work and the majority of “things that pop up” either don’t pop up or one is aware and can deal with the issue calmly. 3) Last and to me biggest: enjoy your soaping. Talk to yourself and allow yourself to be happy, frustrated and ultimately smile as the soap walk is done. (Kinda compiled that one from the many videos of yours I’ve watched and loved)

@IDreamInSoap3 жыл бұрын
So pleased you like the salt bars, to reduce soda ash reduce your water and keep your soap covered for a couple of days - that's for normal soap, for salt bars you have to get them out of the mould and cut. Salt bars do sometimes end up with a different type of ash ' efflorescence' . Efflorescence is the migration of a salt to the surface of a material, where it forms a coating. The essential process involves the dissolving of an internally held salt in water, or occasionally in another solvent. The water, with the salt now held in solution, migrates to the surface, then evaporates, leaving a coating of the salt.

@@IDreamInSoap 2 quick questions.... are you able to stamp your salt bars? I assume you might be able to at the beveling stage or right after unmoulding?
@IDreamInSoap3 жыл бұрын
@@Mrsnatyg You can do it, but I've not had much luck, if you do them when you unmould they van be too soft, at the bevel stage I find them to hard to get a good impression without damaging them, so I tend not to bother as they never look great

P. S. In my first attempt at a Salted Soap soap, I very bravely decided to do a salt sole and salt combo with a dropped swirl into the middle of each poured individual soap = (: 0. Thankfully they turned out beautifully. Whew! 😀😀

What a great tutorial on salt bars. I appreciate you and the time you take to explain things for us new Soapers. I’ve made quite a lot of “regular” soap using many different oil combinations and now introducing different additives to my loaves. I want to make this recipe, however I don’t think I’ll be fooling with the hombre look with salt. :-). I will however attempt that hombre with one of my recipes that stays thin for some time. I do want to know though, how long must these cure? Is it the same as other soaps, 4-6 weeks?

Thanks so much. Yes still the normal cure time, but they get even better with a longer cure

Great video! It's lovely to see more information about the assessment process in the UK/EU. I've never made or used a salt soap before, so I'm curious to know how this soap feels when lathering it up. Does the majority of the salt dissolve? How exfoliating are these bars compared to ones with other exfoliant types?
@IDreamInSoap3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Emily. I use fine salt so in fact they are super smooth and not exfoliating at all. If you used bigger grains then they would be, I was surprised how lovely they felt the 1st time I used them

Lisa, thank you, for sharing your time and gift of soap making. The salt bars look amazing. How long do you let them cure before using them? I am just respectfully learning this artistic medium and your teaching gift shines through!!! I have some chemistry experience in my past and find this intriguing. Hope to try making some soon. Blessings from USA.
@IDreamInSoap3 жыл бұрын
HI Linda, thank you so much. I let all my soaps cure for a minimum of 6 weeks before I sell them. 4 is actually good enough, but the longer, the better. Also you can keep on letting them cure and they will keep on improving (although most of that is done earlier on)

Thank you for all your wonderful videos. I've learned so much from you. You're a great teacher! For my last three salt bar batches, I did try stacking them after cutting. I left them stacked and covered for two days since I live in a humid environment and try to avoid ash. Unfortunately, when I uncovered them tonight the bars were stuck together. I was able to separate them with minimal damage but it gave me a scare. I should probably have de-stacked them after 24 hours? Thanks again! You're wonderful!
