My (Almost Disaster) Melt & Pour Soap Tutorial

[@beautymuse2688]

Hey, i am still fairly new to soap making but i think that the magic is in learning via mistakes. Different from learning by your mistakes. Meaning that's how I've figured out my bast (and worst) techniques. Showing us how to work with mistakes is incredibly valuable and makes for excellent videos. So please don't worry about that. I've learned a lot more from your 2 soap tutorials than the 50 perfect little set up videos! Way more that i can actually use!!! Keep going love!💜💜💜

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you thank you thank you! That is one of the nicest compliments I could ask for! That's why I went ahead and posted that video.....because I wanted to show newcomers how you can "fix it" when things go wrong. So if it could help even one person then I am happy!

[@darasoapery]

I agree 100%! Love your videos! Learning so much 😃 you have a new subscriber!

[@megganstanton2511]

Amazing! The finished product is beautiful. I just bought the planer and beveler because of this video. :)

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you. And you won't regret purchasing the planer. It has truly been a life saver for me!

[@shunawestern9153]

I thought your bars of soap in the end Jennifer looked really lovely. 🥰🇬🇧

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you for saying that. I was happy with the outcome considering how much trouble I had 😩

[@Barbarajhere]

You are a gem! Great visional etc. Thank you for sharing, helping those that are interested in melt & pour.

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thanks so much for saying that. I sure hope I'm able to help some fellow soapmakers out there 😀

[@JuanaPray333]

[@jencrazysoaplady]

So sweet of you! Thank you 💕💕

[@michelletauson9436]

I watched your first video and have to say it was the best MP I have watched (and I watch a lot of them). Loved this one also - please make more videos. I am new to MP soaping and both videos were very helpful.

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you so much. I'm glad my videos have been helpful for you. I'm gonna try to make them more frequently 😀

[@debbiehutchinson2410]

Its great, just be the soap queen andvteach us newbies

[@johannamorel4758]

I love the details! The talking really helps! Thanks!

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you. I really appreciate you saying that as I always feel like I babble too much. I’m glad you found it helpful 😊

[@emilys4679]

You are WAY too hard on yourself! I think these soaps are beautiful, even before the planing, and I'm absolutely taking notes on your process.

[@julessudsandsoaps]

Absolutely stunning!! I just started a soaping and just started making videos for KZbin channel too. Keep up the great work! I actually like hearing you talk. I learn so much! Thank you 😊

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you so much! And I just subscribed to your channel 😀❤️💕

[@julessudsandsoaps]

@@jencrazysoaplady How kind of you. Thank you! I just love your videos. They inspire me. Keep up the great work!

[@gloriazaragoza3349]

Aww I am glad you did post.. you're showing us how to fix it..i am taking mental notes. Love the fun music by the way.. ;)

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you so much for the kind words. And I'm glad you liked the music....I figured I needed to add something in there or I would've just kept babbling lol 🤣🤣

[@marciafields7161]

You are ok 😊 I love it 🌟🌟 God bless you

[@kavitanagpal19]

❤ thank you for the inspiration

[@marykozak8828]

I think they turned out beautiful. Would it help if you stirred before each pour. Might eliminate some of the lumps. But anyway I love them.

[@amberarnold787]

Your work is so amazing ! Thank you for your videos . New to this and your videos are a great resource.

[@jencrazysoaplady]

[@pollysparadisesoap7938]

@@jencrazysoaplady I think I just messed up some rainbow soap I don't know until I cut the loaf later 🙃. Goodness mistakes happen but your videos are really freshing and you do a great job in explainations. Hope to see another one before next year! Take care and be well

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Thank you for the kind remarks....and I'm sure your soap will look great! And most definitely I'm gonna be making more frequent videos now 😀

[@brandygreeley4623]

How do you choose which way to go with each color? I'd be having a panic attack about that alone!

[@tracyglass7102]

Great Job!!! Wonderful!!!!!

What do u do with the skin

Thank you so much 💓

[@Jenalynncash]

Could you use a wax melter at 150-160F° to melt the mountain and keep it at a stable temperature?

[@jencrazysoaplady]

I haven't personally done that but you could try it. However 150°-160° is gonna be too hot to swirl with SFIC base, which is what I'm using in this video. You may be able to swirl that warm with Stephenson base. With the SFIC you're gonna need to pour under 130°

[@Jenalynncash]

@@jencrazysoaplady thank you so much!!!!!

[@jillbuss7626]

Thank you for sharing❣

[@jencrazysoaplady]

You're so welcome ☺

[@divabarrie08]

Can you please tell me how much soap bace you have in each pouring pitcher. What is the full recipe thanks.

[@jencrazysoaplady]

I filled each container with approx 5 oz each. I used 2% fragrance oil.

[@sharoncastaneda597]

Did you use titanium dioxide for the white? Or white melt and pour?

[@jencrazysoaplady]

I used white melt & pour. It was probably goat milk but I can't remember for sure

[@sharoncastaneda597]

What do you use for colorants? Mica?

[@jencrazysoaplady]

Yes, mica

[@chrisj18201]

Where did you get that planer

[@jencrazysoaplady]

CDA SoapWorks on Etsy.....but there's a link to it in my video description.

[@Rodmic-hd9pn]

I don’t like the fact that she doesn’t give you the measurements and doesn’t tell you that you have to keep reheating them

[@jencrazysoaplady]

I apologize. I do talk about my measurements in another one of my videos but not this one :( Unfortunately you do have to reheat alot and I talk about that in my other video as well. I used to let it bother me but not anymore. My method requires several reheats because I let the base get very cool, and it also gives a more defined swirl. If you don't like having to reheat several times then this method may not be for you. Fortunately, there's other swirling techniques you could try that don't require reheating. A really good one is the acorn swirl. If you haven't tried that one yet, I would. It produces a different swirl but it's very pretty :)
