I think this is a great way to use the fragrance oils that accelerate and doesn't allow fine designes. This way the base soap can be one-coloured but the top is still beautiful and interesting

[@IDreamInSoap]

Great point! 👍

[@pauletteplatt5109]

It could be fun to do a hidden design using this technique, as you use the soap it's revealed :)

[@JohannaInTheCorner]

@@ljc675 and @pauletteplatt5109 How about sand and earthy colours - yellows and browns… or perhaps grey…. And when you remove the top and bottom dipped layers you get the same colour way… but embedded in the ‘earth’… a dinosaur fossil…. One of several… you take your chance at which you will uncover 🥰 Clean archaeology for all!

[@IDreamInSoap]

Yes, that would be cool. I think if you have a decent bar underneath then it's a great technique.

[@AndiNewtonian]

Ooo, I like that idea!

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

Didn’t see your comment when I made mine! Obviously I agree!

[@pamelastrawn]

LOVE YOUR CHANNEL

[@IDreamInSoap]

That's so kind of you to say @pamelastrawn, thank you so much 😊

[@dmcgee5034]

Beautiful! Wasn’t tempted to try this technique until I saw you do it. Thanks Lisa for the inspiration and how fun you made it! 😊

[@IDreamInSoap]

You are so welcome! 😉

[@ffynnon100]

Wow!

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thank you so much @ffynnon100, that's very kind of you.

[@jeannedecker964]

So beautiful. Can’t wait to give this design a try.

[@IDreamInSoap]

I hope you have fun with it

[@CL-kn1rq]

Beautiful Lisa, have a look at Jennifer's they came out looking like gems, quite beautiful.

[@IDreamInSoap]

I'm not sure who you mean by Jennifer I'm afraid

[@CL-kn1rq]

@@IDreamInSoap Apologies, Jennifer's channel is the soap artist. Lovely girl. I didn't know you didn't know her, I sort of thought we both subbed basically the same soap channels however I have been wrong. 😳😂. But now that I know this, there is one Texan man who can greatly benefit from your guidance, he calls himself the orgelmeister. I don't know why. I have sent him to you before because he's battling a bit. He instead found Katie from Royalty soaps, also a lovely girl but you surpass everyone when it comes to technicality, so although he's getting much help, the technical side of pouring to get a design has not reached him. And let me be clear I'm the last person to speak, I have never so much as bought mica, I just relax watching. Anyway there's some channels for you ❤️

[@l_7376]

So much time spent on each bar!

[@IDreamInSoap]

The dipping was actually pretty quick, but yes they take more time than just a basic bar of soap

[@patriciagilliam7525]

Is this tool USB or the large head type of plug that is only available in non wet areas.

[@jasperbunny]

I love all of the different variations on this design and definitely looks like you enjoyed it in the end! 😊

[@IDreamInSoap]

That's so kind of you to say @jasperbunny, thank you so much 😊

[@RedVelvetRabbit]

Its a really interesting technique, and I enjoy watching you work through the process. I do have to say though that I prefer a design that goes all the way through. I can see this being a really awesome way to have a "secret soap" design in the middle that's revealed over time with use. It could be a really involved way of saying "will you marry me?"

[@IDreamInSoap]

Yes, I completely agree with you about 'all the way through - ooh wouldn't the Marry Me thing be fun

[@cheryl739]

This is amazingly beautiful. I was thinking the same as you when you first were talking about the technique. But after you started dipping and the results were awesome, I now love that technique and will likely try it. I will do a very slightly lighter weight bar to account for the extra weight of the dip. You picked such wonderful colors for your bars. Love them! Cheers 👍🤗

[@IDreamInSoap]

I agree Cheryl, the results are so cool and I think if you plan for it and use soaps made specifically for the process they'll be amazing

[@wencheeltervaag]

Love it! It realy make sense when you use the main colours in the soap bar first.😄

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thank you so much @wencheeltervaag, that's very kind of you.

[@tanyabonnett7787]

Finally one of the amazing Soap Challenge designs I feel confident I could have a go at. Yours are beautiful Lisa

Hi @sabrinastreet5337 thank you so much for your very kind comment 😊

[@ThatDuckieMoment]

This is the first video of yours that KZbin has decided to show me in about 3 years. The only reason I know you're still here is because I see your posts on Instagram.

[@IDreamInSoap]

AW, that's a shame. Hmm, I'm here every week !!

[@pink_shoe_laces]

I love the little splashes of purple and the way they contrast with the other, cooler colours. The bars look amazing!

[@IDreamInSoap]

That's so kind of you to say @pink_shoe_laces, thank you so much 😊

[@sarahconklin1256]

They came out beautiful. It would be cool if you could drip the whole soap. 😞 but that would waste a lot of soap…

[@IDreamInSoap]

That's so kind of you to say @sarahconklin1256, thank you so much 😊

HI! Where did you get the clear silicone mold for the inside of the plexiglass mold? I love it! I'm always afraid to use my plexiglass mold too much because I'm afraid I'll scratch it during cleaning.

[@chefgoldielocs]

Whoever is responsible for this dipping technique is a genius 👏🏾 Bravo

[@IDreamInSoap]

Yes, it's a cool technique

[@vernahrris5601]

A good way to make 'ugly' soaps into pretty soaps! I fear they would be too pretty for people to want to use.

[@IDreamInSoap]

It can be a good technique, I'm not a fan of covering up ugly soap though as the ugly soap will be shown as soon as you get through the dipped part

[@vernahrris5601]

@@IDreamInSoapVery true, I just felt my soaps. I don't think any of them should be considered ugly!!!

[@JeniaJohnson-in9hr]

awesome as always! ive seen a few people when doing this technique pull the bar side ways instead of pulling straight up and it makes great swirls too! ❤ u are great!

[@IDreamInSoap]

Yes, the way you pull it gives all sorts of different results

[@JeniaJohnson-in9hr]

@@IDreamInSoap that being said, you are an artist that excels in everything artistic & you go above & beyond ! I'm so tickled when I see a new video of yours because I know I can expect to be amazed!

[@KarenCain-c1w]

Absolutley beautiful

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thanks, appreciate it. 😍

[@r.durante528]

I am absolutely left speechless. You are the Picasso of soapmaking. Do you ever work in oils? Your creativity and artistry is simply beautiful. I never thought of soap evoking memories and feelings but each of your bars tells a story that is individual to each person who looks at it and uses it. Thank you for sharing your gift.

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thanks for the props. I don't work in oils, though I did some watercolour on holiday once. Soap is best. 😉😍

[@rlax7141]

Really pretty. Now the challenge is how to make a soap with a swirl that looks like the outside of this soap that goes throughout the bar.

[@IDreamInSoap]

Yes, that would be very cool

[@janiedillingham3190]

Pretty! I love your color choices. The neon purple (a personal favorite of mine) was the perfect little extra! BTW, Lisa, what makes up your warming cupboard? I use a cardboard box lined with a heating pad and towels. (Not fancy, but it works.) What is yours?

[@IDreamInSoap]

Neon purple is my favourite purple too. My warming cupboard is actually a restaurant double plate warming cupboard. It's like this, not the exact one but very similar. www.empiresuppliesonline.co.uk/products/empire-double-door-hot-cupboard-plate-warmer-120-plate-7522-p

[@IDreamInSoap]

Well, it's my hobby as well as my job!

[@karenmsuk]

I am not sure this is the right term, but this is out of your comfort zone as it were and you seemed to really enjoy yourself. I like the pattern on the side of the bars where you dragged up the side of the mold.

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thank you so much @karenmsuk, that's very kind of you.

[@corryg6403]

Very cool but i agree it wouldnt be right to sell them, We have the mini bleders here in Canada called milk frothers

[@IDreamInSoap]

I have no problem with selling the bars that are specifically made, like I did. I would show the back of the soap in the shop image and explain that the dipping bit was on one surface, but I wouldn't try to hide ugly soaps with the technique to sell them.

[@RachelBenedetti]

Your soaps came out absolutely beautifully!

It was a competition soap, as you know, but we'll be using them. 😉

Try again 😀

@@IDreamInSoap I plan to when I need more soap. I have a lot of stock to sell.

[@elainem7722]

So beautiful! You decided not to use the black.

Yes, I was happy with how they were coming out, so didn't think I needed it

[@brendajackson294]

Beautiful results. It is always fun to see a new technique.

[@IDreamInSoap]

Thank you! 😊

[@JohannaInTheCorner]

Every time you dipped I had a new favourite bar😂 I do wonder how much dipping soap was discarded… it feels like it’s quite a wasteful process compared to your usual efficiencies! Thank you Lisa!

[@IDreamInSoap]

I was able to use each plate of soap for about 3 or 4 bars, just adding a bit more soap. The bits that were scraped off I put into a small mould and then made a couple of bars that we'll just use at home.

[@MsAubrey]

When I did this challenge, I thought it was pretty simple to do and a great way to make “ugly” bars look very pretty. ❤

[@IDreamInSoap]

I agree, it does make ugly soaps look pretty, which is cool. I only said I didn't think it would be good if the soaps were to be sold as someone would be buying a soap based on the pretty top design, but would then end up with an ugly bar of soap

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

This would be a good tec for a surprise soap, instead of a rubbish soap underneath, a wonderful soap is slowly revealed when using! That sounds fun!

[@IDreamInSoap]

Sure is!
