Rose Quartz Cold Process Soap Making

[@MsAubrey]

Don’t know what it is, but I’ve always enjoyed the esthetic of gray and pink together.😊

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Same!!

[@lilhedgehog8576]

Gray and pink, reminds me of a kitten. A little gray tabby cat with pink paw pads. But yeah, I like the aesthetic too! I never realized how much I liked it till I read this comment though. I was like: Hmm now that I think about it those colors together are pretty calming.

Love the whisk swirl on top!

This is my BFF’s most favorite bar, so pleased to be able to order more July 8th. Have an alert set on my phone! Beautiful video, Julie.

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Thank you!!!! This is a different scent than the other rose Quartz. But it’s amazing!!

[@r.durante528]

I loved the whisk application. Such a nice touch and different.

[@lilhedgehog8576]

Super pretty I love all the swirls. It gives me a sky vibe.

[@lisa-m-jennings]

What a stunning bar! I have watched you for years. Your channel was one of the reasons I was inspired to make my own soap. It is funny how I find myself geeking out with the efficiency in which you scrape your bowls. Aesthetics are everything. So well done. Thank you for sharing.

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Thank you so much. Im so happy i inspired you to make soap 🥹🩷

[@susanboshaw3083]

Very pretty, love the top with the whisk. ❤

[@FlippingGrammie]

Oh, I love this swirl technique.

[@TheMediterraneanStar]

Will you ever do something "porcelain" inspired? Like vibrant blues and white, intricate swirls and a fine golden line?

[@BellaMarie-uf7oh]

A-MAZING! 😮 Absolutely Beautiful ❤

[@lamella24]

Very pretty and soothing 😊

[@thandiwolfe813]

I’m not usually a big fan of the super swirly bars, but this one is gorgeous!

[@pattiemoseley8752]

Absolutely gorgeous ❤

[@athenajorg738]

Can you share a simple soap recipe for beginners please.

[@veena_got7igot7]

[@deeannamorrison8587]

Love the colors!!😊

[@patt1136]

Beautiful! I love what you did on top!

[@MsAubrey]

I’ve missed your videos! ❤

[@lyndawest8612]

Beautiful color combo. Loved the application of the whisk for the surface - i still don’t get adding stones to soap is this a crystal thing or just another pretty detail?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Just a pretty detail that the customer can keep

[@capers72424]

This is GORGEOUS! I have a technical question. I know lye is a part of soap, and basically always has been. Watching you add the lye with your heavy gloves reminded me that lye is also caustic. Does mixing it with the hard oils render it non-caustic? How does that work?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Soap is made using a chemical reaction. This chemical reaction is called saponification, which combines oil and lye to create soap and glycerin. Once saponification happens (12-24 hours) there is no lye left in the soap. ☺️

[@capers72424]

@@OpheliasSoapery thank you, I was guessing it was something like that… but my favorite physical chemist (Mom) is no longer here to ask!

[@capers72424]

@@OpheliasSoapery wait… is that when it goes from a liquid to solid state? The saponification?

[@anastasiamaslova648]

@@OpheliasSoaperycouldn’t we technically use our soap after saponification 12-24 hours after if the lye evaporates? Why do people wait for it to cure? Is it because the water still continues to evaporate?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Yes you can use it after 24 hours technically. We like to cure longer because the more the water evaporates the harder the bar will be and the longer it will last in the shower :)

[@NABEELASAMARA]

What's the temperature of lye solution?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

It’s over 200°F.

[@Pickles6115]

Were your soft oils already in with your hard oils?

[@OpheliasSoapery]

Yes :)
