My Cold Process Soap Fail 😭| This Eucalyptus Soap Was A Disaster!!

I had plans to make a beautiful Eucalyptus Soap with a fun gradient design. This video is a great example of what can go wrong, how to spot the signs of something not quite right and the telltale signs of mistakes that can happen when making cold process soap. I hope this can help you not make the same mistakes and avoid your own soap fails :)

Thanks for the lesson! lol yesterday I made salted watermelon soap and it was soap on a stick in a matter of seconds. It was so crazy how fast I had to work to get it out the container LOL I'm relatively new to this and I love making soap. Its so therapeutic! and eucalyptus smells so amazing!!! That would have been such a cute bar. If you do decide to rebatch can you make a video on it?!

[@SoapSchoolUK]

Dani, what a shame it sounds lovely!

Glad it was helpful!

[@WildAcornsArtStudio]

Oh darn. What a beautiful looking soap. Can you melt that down and add the oil? Thanks for sharing.

[@SoapSchoolUK]

I know right! It happens to us all at some point. Hopefully it will help someone not do it :D. I could rebatch it and add in the oil but it would be one single colour and not have the smooth texture

[@MommaDrake02]

@@SoapSchoolUK you could hot process rebatch it. tellervo has done it on KZbin, and I've done it myself, it works quite well. Though in thus case, I'd weigh the extra oil you need, then mix a new batch up as well, then blend in the the messed up soap. It won't be the same color of course, but it would be usable soap.

I have done this myself when doing shampoo recipes

[@SoapSchoolUK]

It's a pain when it happens for sure
