My Step By Step Method For Crystal Clear Results First Time | How To Make Glycerin Soap Transparent

I missed something out of this video! For the updated version of this crystal clear soap making video please follow this link • Finally! Step By Step ...
Never have to buy pricey Stephensons transparent melt & pour base ever again by making your very own transparent soap base.
This is a reboot of an earlier video. How to make transparent soap appears to be a popular search, so it seemed weird that my earlier video was low on views (YT algorithms?). So, I thought I'd reboot it and give it another go in the hope it reaches more people who, like me, have struggled to find a user-friendly transparent soap recipe that is fairly straightforward to make at home.
When I was exploring making my own transparent soap from scratch, most of the videos I could find seemed a bit too scientific, overly complicated, involved a microwave and less accessible ingredients, moreover, they were mostly from countries which weren't English speaking and therefore the only details were from sketchy YT translations!
A bit more research led me to a couple of transparent soap recipes, using hot process soap making methods in a crockpot, and to me, these seemed far more user friendly. However, all the crockpot recipes stemmed from the United States, were in imperial measures and used American brand name products, like Everclear, that we don't have in the UK. Soooo, I endeavoured to formulate my own transparent soap recipe, in grams, using more generic ingredients that, hopefully, can be found and purchased the world over.

APOLOGIES. I SOMEHOW MISSED OUT ADDING THE LYE IN THIS VIDEO! Thanks to a viewer for pointing it out. Even though I watched the vid many times as I was putting it together, I didn't notice! So, please instead see the amended video post after this one!

Awesome video! ❤

[@sugarwelluk]

Glad you liked it!!

[@MelancholyRhyme]

never knew soap was made of sugar? :O i don't know how this video ended up in my feed but i really liked it :D

[@sugarwelluk]

This is just one type of soap - glycerin soap - other soap is made differently and without sugar! This one is slightly more complicated!

I didn't see where you added the lye solution. Did your oils melt clear, then you added the lye and cooked it to that chunky consistency just before you added the sugar solution?

[@sugarwelluk]

You're right! How did I miss that part out??? Thanks for pointing it out! I watched through that video so many times as I was putting it together so how did I not notice? I'll leave the video up for another 24 hours so you have time to see this response, and in the meantime, I'll go back to the drawing board, find the missing section, edit it in and upload a new version!

@sugarwelluk lol it took me watching it 4 times through to figure out what I was missing because my son kept interrupting!

[@sugarwelluk]

I've put an amended version up now. I really do appreciate you letting me know. And, yes, it doesn't take much of an interruption for me to lose focus, so I'm with you there!
