Hi. Thank you for this video. I am new to soap making and now I understand why Kaolin Clay is used.

[@msTsoap]

You're welcome! I'm so glad it was helpful. Thank you for watching! I have an entire playlist of beginner videos that may also be helpful to you. It's SUCH a fun hobby/art form; I hope you get as much enjoyment out of it as I do! 🥰❤

[@heatherperry5621]

Thanks!

[@msTsoap]

Thank you so much, Heather! 🥰

[@delacotta360]

Thank you, thank you, thank you - you just taught me how to mix the clay in the FO and then how to add that to the soap. I struggled when trying to make a "gardener soap".

[@msTsoap]

You're SO welcome! I'm really happy that I was able to help! Thanks for watching and for commenting! ❤🥰❤

[@heatherperry5621]

I definitely learned something, I have kaolin clay and that base. I also have the haircut and a shave too! I'm going to make this for sure. Thanks Terry 😊

[@msTsoap]

That's awesome! That's such a nostalgic fragrance, reminds me of my dad! Let me know how it turns out, or if you have questions. Thank you for watching and commenting- it's so helpful for growing the channel and community! 🙂❤

It turned out great Terry, my husband uses it daily and I have sold some bars at craft fairs. I made a men's line of soaps that are masculine I call them granite, copper, onyx, bronze and leather. I marbled my soaps I used St Terra palm free glycerin as my base, and I made shampoo bars from CC DF Moroccan and Argan base. I sold as a set or individual. They were beautiful. I used haircut and a shave, bay rum, very sexy and drakkar type for fo's in the soaps .I didn't add a fo to my shave soaps. I am hoping to launch a website this year. You have inspired me so much Terry. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us all. ❤❤❤

[@jeanijackson4768]

[@msTsoap]

You're welcome! So glad you liked it! 🙂❤

[@jchang7655]

Thank you, Terry! ❤ You have inspired me once again to create something I didn't think of 😊

[@msTsoap]

You are quite welcome! That's exactly what I hope to do. Thanks for watching and engaging. 🙂❤

[@jackiejohnson8445]

Thanks, Terry! I've been thinking of adding a shave soap. Appreciate the information you shared!

[@msTsoap]

You're welcome! I'm stoked about doing another shave soap video- so many cool options! Thank you for watching and commenting! 🙂❤

Going to give it a go for my boys ty for Shari g. How much soap base did you use with the 4tsp clay? , I must have missed it.

[@msTsoap]

I may not have said, I've got to get better at that! I believe I used about 34 oz. I was going for eight 4oz soaps, and I prefer to go over rather than under, so I added in about extra oz and made a half soap for my love! 🤣Let me know how they go! 🙂🥰

[@brandicampbell2001]

how much of the fragrance did you use? Can't wait to try this.

[@msTsoap]

In general I use 1-1.5% per pound, rarely I will take it up to 2% if allowed by IFRA. Hope you have fun with it! ❤🥰
