You made this look so awesome I had to order a kit from your Essential Depot link. Well done.

[@SmelliciousSoaps]

That is so cool they did a soap kit from your tutorial. Excellent, I think I just might try this out!

[@kathytomesh7936]

My kids got me this set for Christmas! I got one bar out of it. They are now hooked on homemade soap. I now have to keep making more.

[@wdbreezy]

What a great idea for those just starting out - nice !!

[@claudiafonseca5810]

Really nice and looks so rich.

[@debralynn1213]

Fantastic idea...especially for those of us just starting out. This is exactly what I need to dive in :)

Love it :)

[@TRICIA7581]

Congratulations! : )

[@Nancylistens]

I love your videos, thank you. How long does this have to cure before using?

[@korvette84]

Fantastic :)

[@maricarmen1919]

Hello where can I find the Caffeinated Coffee Soap recipe. I like it very much Thank you very much

[@cmkronen1]

I thought for a second she was going to make cocaine soap during the pause.

[@theladyladyamy]

Congrats

[@100cakenurse]

I noticed a crack in the top of your soap before it was unmolded. I have also made a coffee soap which started to crack. This happened to me twice with coffee soaps. The 2nd time I put it in the fridge to cool it fast so the crack didn't get worse. Why is that?

[@corenagaroutte2315]

If i premix a bottle of titanium Dioxide and/or powdered colors/mica oil mixture to always have on hand, do i need a preservative in the mix?

[@waltonmary48]

lovely video, why did the surface crack?

[@atthewater]

great tutorial! thanks. Made this yesterday. When I unmolded it, the bottom and lower sides stuck to the mold.....soap is super soft. Any idea what I may have done wrong? (it still looks & smells wonderful!!)

[@inesconcepcion1030]

Hello I just buy this kit and I have a question after I put it in the mold should I spray with rubbing alcohol?

[@zoyamargolis6889]

Would you talk about the difference between using instant coffee and your method here please?

[@angelsandfaes]

way to go.

[@Nbarakjie]

nice

[@DrusTicketHome]

Can you use the soap right away? Or do you have to wait?

[@Riiot09]

Did you need to prep this mold at all for those nice sharp edges?

[@brownsugarbaby5003]

Can coffee soap be made hot process way?

[@yusspretaeb]

Nice

[@dnaturalone]

Hello, I bought the kit from essential depot and made it yesterday and I wanted to know where can I buy the caffeine? I want to make it again but I don't want to order another kit.

[@Species710]

Off topic from this video but... Teach, where do you get your beef tallow or do you render it yourself?

[@sanabriasbeautystore]

wow

[@angelacox1672]

Is it a requirement to purchase this kit or do you provide the recipe somewhere?

[@chelerutan]

The kit is not shown in her link. But I found it on Essential Depot's website. www.essentialdepot.com/servlet/the-561/Catherine%27s-Caffeinated--dsh--RED/Detail It's on sale for $44.99 right now.

[@Darkshinebaby91]

Dear soaping101, I'm really interested in making soap. It would be a great hobby plus I can help out my family. The only this is I have no clue as to where to buy the supplies and at a cheap cost. You see, in living check by check can you please make a video on how to get started in soaping? Like what do you need and how much it costs?

[@harrymetsally86]

Yaisha Diaz Hardware: stick blender, stainless steel pot, glass/steel container for lye, soap molds (you can find homemade ones either- I use washed empty plastic containers from takeouts) . Ingredients for a basic soap are oils (coconut, olive, castor are common) , lye granules also called caustic Soda (I get mine in the hardware) and perhaps some fragrance oils.

[@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa]

Dizzatron you do realize that comment was from 5 years ago

[@cpmperu]

Hi Cath! Maybe this is a stupid question ....is this soap suppose to have particular properties on the skin?

[@audreyhunts]

What kind of coffee grounds? Spent grounds? Fresh grounds? How fine of a grind? How much did you put in?

[@willowsnatural]

what does the caffeine powder contribute to the soap?

[@acesoccer101]

I wanna buy it but I cant find it:(

[@corenagaroutte2315]

No, i wont be introducing water into the mix

[@montanahammond7218]

Link to kit does not work :(

[@Chemeleon15]

Your caffeine says 13grams while might kit contains only 8grams, why?

[@DrDuckMD]

why do you use olive pomace oil instead of cold pressed olive oil

[@soaping101]

Pomace olive oil has a high peercentage of unsaponifiables. It is akin to a built in superfat.

[@onetopmom]

Ok ok

[@nuriabotiga]

Hola me llamo Nuria Espin y soy segidora de tus videos pero solo puedo berlos pues no entiendo nada ya que yo soy de bBarcelona pero no se el Ingles me gustaria que me mandarais alguna receta de javon facil y que oliera bien gracias asta otra

[@iluminameluna]

nuria botiga Sé que hicisteis esta pregunta hace MUCHO, pero yo hasta ahora la veo. Si aún deseáis una buena receta, fácil y con buen olor, prueba la «Bastille». Es una combinación de aceite de oliva y de coco. No sé cómo está el precio del aceite de coco, pero te sugeriría que hicieras la compra para ésta receta. Búscala en la página de soaping101, bajo el nombre: Bastille Soap Recipe. O con Google o tu buscador preferido. Sé que hay calculadoras para la fabricación de jabón en Inglés pero igual puedes encontrar los términos equivalentes con tu buscador. Google tiene excelentes traducciones de químicos. Además, podréis encontrar los ingredientes más necesarios en tu ferretería, tal como la soda cáustica (lye), pero busca la que tiene SÓLO hidróxido de potasio. Sin colorantes ni otro aditivo. El aceite de oliva no tiene que ser de cierta marca. Puedes usar el que más te guste, pero toma en cuenta que entre más puro (virgen) el aceite, más tardará en llegar a punto de listón, que es lo que en Inglés llaman «trace» (el líquido se vuelve tan denso que deja un «listón» en la superficie. Por favor, usa guantes y lentes protectores las primeras veces al menos pues no te imagináis lo fácil que es echarse respingos de cualquier solución cuando se comienza. También asegúrate de que tengáis buena ventilación no sólo al procesar tu jabón sino también durante el tiempo que esté en el molde. Yo no tuve ésa precaución mi primera vez y sentía que mis ojos estarían dañados por siempre!! Era un ardor tremendo, y mi nariz, ni te cuento! Sin embargo, ése jabón me salió perfecto!! Era la receta de Bastille (que es contracción en Inglés de Bastard Castille porque está adulterada la receta de Castilla.) y usé aceite esencial de lavanda y un aceite de oliva que había tenido en mi cocina por casi 6 meses! Una barrita de jabón tuvo una mancha por oxidación del aceite viejo pero no causa ningún efecto negativo contra su efectividad. Espero que no te desanimes de hacer al menos ésta receta. Es fácil, aunque tarda un poco para la curación, porque media vez comenzéis a usar jabón hecho en casa, nunca más querráis usar jabón comercial!! Buena suerte y si tenéis preguntas, mándame un mensaje por medio de gmail. Te ayudaré en lo que pueda.

Why do you put the caffeine powder in the soap?

[@MuzikGuru1]

Caffeine powder is used in soap to reduce the appearance of cellulite. It also gives your skin a near perfect pH balance.

[@kinkywombat2388]

No it doesn't. Even if caffeine in soap affected the pH balance of your skin, whether it balanced the pH would depend on what the pH was to begin with. In any case, research has shown that the amount of caffeine absorbed through the skin from a caffeine-rich soap is negligible, unless you spend all day covered in the lather.

[@xonivora]

I learnt from a really good book called Soap Naturally and I agree, not much survives the saponification process, it gets to such high temperatures. Vitamin E and the like is another one that wouldn't survive the saponifcation process. I usually only make goats milk soap or oatmeal soap very nice on the skin. I've heard that caffeine is good for the skin and I would use skin creams with it in.

[@MuzikGuru1]

Agreed. Caffeine does indeed effect cellulite, but the "results" only last a few hours.

[@kinkywombat2388]

Catherine Ruby Caffeine absorbed through the skin can give you buzz, but it needs to be quite high concentration. The University of Newcastle (in the UK) has/had a department that researched the absorption of various substances through the skin. If you're interested in this kind of thing it's worth hunting down their research. Personally, I make no claims about the therapeutic benefits of my soap, partly because that would push me into a different legal category as far as labelling and stuff, but mostly because I'm not a dermatologist and I think it's grossly irresponsible to tell people something which I have no idea is true or not.

[@elleme6891]

[@CellularFixation]

Soap looks great but why pollute the recipe with a carcinogen like Titanium Dioxide?
