Why I Don't Cure My Soap for 6 Weeks 🔥 Hot Topic Soap Curing Explained

[@mistyize]

I'm not a soap maker, I just buy a lot of handmade soap, but as a consumer, I'll throw out there that I buy soaps and I'll let them cure for months myself. This goes from the big makers like Dr. Squatch to my local lady up at the farmers market. The reason is simple. It doesn't just disintegrate. My husbands first bar of the squatch stuff was gone in like 2 weeks, and it wasn't because he left it in a puddle of water or anything, he was just going through more of it per shower. At like $7 a bar, he was kind of hot over it. Lol So, i bought him another bar and i left it in my craft shed for a long time. Maybe even a year. I forgot about it being in there if im being real, but that bar was really good to him. True it shrank kind of dramatically in size, but if its going to last 3 times as long, then its not a real issue. My point is, from a consumer standpoint, it might be worth it to let your bars hard cure a bit. I mean, i realize you're losing weight there, but at the same time, im happy with paying for less weight if the bar will stick around for a minute. After all, i still pay the same price for the bars i buy, but im shrinking them myself, and im fine with that. My husband would have quit using handmade soaps all together if i hadn't have started curing them myself before setting them out for him to use. A consumer that doesn't realize why the bars are being used up so quick might be turned off by how fast they're going through their soap, and that's potentially a lost customer, ya know? Im not trying to criticize what you guys do, i love my soapmakers out there, im just offering feedback from the flipside. Lol

[@TheSoapGal]

Thanks for reaching out and sharing your experiences. As a white label co packer, it's up to each brand how long they want to let their bars harden before they sell. In a previous video I discuss the importance of the R&D and testing the bar during different phases of the curing process to ensure it's as hard, lasts as long, and performs to your liking. Every batch that leaves my facility has been weighed until no more water weight is left in the bar and then it sits for an additional 2-3 weeks during the packing, shipping, and storing process. I definitely understand where you're coming from as a consumer and daily use products should always disclose how long they believe a bar will last with aggressive daily use. Thanks for being a part of this community!

[@LittleYoki]

But I also think there’s a lot of consumers out there, who just like to have pretty soap that smells good. That’s just what I hear from other girls that I talk to. They just want to put it in their bathroom or in their kitchen and it looks really nice. As a consumer who is very particular about their soap, I would probably do more research into the brands that I’m buying from or just make my own.

[@user-jd4uc4xm2k]

That bar was good to him... haha. You are a great wife to him.

[@liveandletlive7152]

It's got to do with the base oils used too if im not mistaken

[@liveandletlive7152]

I agree,personally i do not mind too much because i know i'm using quality products on my skin.​@@LittleYoki

[@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa]

I’ve been soaping well over 30 years and one thing people don’t tell you is when you discount your water it also makes your bar dryer and less moisturizing. You need to discount it for another high water content product. I don’t teach people to discount their water, especially beginners.

[@TheSoapGal]

That is why using good, high quality oils is so important, congratulations on over 30 years in the business!

[@thewordsmithsdaughter]

As a soap maker for 12 years, I’ve always discounted water and had repeat customers because of loving our soap properties. The formulation of oils counts. I can use a soap next day or two once set. So I’ve never understood the necessity of weeks and weeks of curing. Although I agree that time does make an even milder soap.

[@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa]

@@thewordsmithsdaughter 🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ just because you have repeat customers don’t mean the formulations not bad, but do you.

[@thewordsmithsdaughter]

@@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa smacks her head, but the reviews are “best soap” I’ve ever used. Doesn’t leave my skin dry. My skin has never been better. Etc etc. Thousands of customers over these past 10 + years. Almost 12 actually. I wouldn’t comment as such if I wasn’t confident in my product. But I worked hard on the formulation right at the beginning and I don’t deviate.

[@owleyes71]

I have to wait at least 4 weeks because of the way I package. If I do it before 4 weeks then the shrinking that happens causes my label to slide off super super easy. I've discovered if I wait 4 weeks to post online by the time someone orders and I HAVE to package I have better luck.

[@TheSoapGal]

Are you in a humid environment?

[@sayitscents]

So glad someone has addressed this. I get so much crap over it and also use 50/50 lye solution.

[@galaxia4709]

Joanna doesn't use a 50/50% lye solution because she adds water when the soap is being made, so that you are free to choose WHICH water you want to add like aloe vera water, by the time you are making the soap

I pray God continues to bless your work. So thankful you had Kevin Dunn on to put all this to bed. I do hthp with low water and my soap stops losing weight at 2 weeks tops depending on the recipe.

So thankful for you using your platform to educate and encourage people to actually do their research.

[@TheSoapGal]

So happy to help and appreciate your sweet words and encouragement!!

[@anabs_wrenandrita]

I absolutely loved this video - thank you for bringing the science of it all into the conversation. I always find reading all the "arguments" centered around the curing time/process interesting and frustrating. Like you, I use a steep water discount. I'm in a medium-humid climate, so it takes a bit more time to get a harder bar. There's a big difference between a safe bar of soap and a hard bar of soap. In the end, that's what this is all about. Science doesn't lie! Love Dr. Kevin Dunn :D

[@TheSoapGal]

Yes and amen! Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words!

[@boop7313]

All makes total sense to me! Thanks soap gal 🙂and it was great seeing Kevin Dunne make an appearance too.

[@DawnOrganics]

Great watch, I steep water discount from the default 38% to 25% on all recipes, when using over 80% olive oil I go a further down to 22% (water to oil ratio that is). So many benefits to doing this. Thanks for the great video. New subber too! 😊😊🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you for this! Huge fan of Dr. Kevin Dunn and all his research about soap making!! I used to weigh my soaps but would always forget so my data was never any good😂I use a dehumidifier for the more humid days and go by feel, it's amazing the difference between a well cured soap and one that isn't there yet.

[@TheSoapGal]

He's wonderful! And absolutely! I'd never sell a bar without doing the rigorous testing first! :)

[@shaquandadenise]

I do 3 weeks. My soap is rock hard after about 2 weeks and believe it or not I use my soap after a week. And I agree, if you are shipping to a warehouse, like Amazon, by the time it gets to even the first consumer, it will be 1.5-2 weeks.

[@lindachandler2293]

I don't sell mine, so curing it isn't a problem. I pour it in silicone molds. Next day it's set and I pop it out. I lay the bars on their sides on my soap shelf and use it as needed. It is totally usable 3rd day, but wears away faster. It's cheap and fast to make, so it isn't an issue. If it feels wet, for whatever reason, mine never has, I wouldn't wrap it air tight and send it in the mail or anything like that.

[@epiphany_hypnotherapy]

Thank you for your Videos! You’re so inspiring! I heard you say that you wrap your bars shortly after making them & also that you’re in the dryer climate of Arizona. I assume that would be different for me in Vermont. What is a steep water discount? Like how steep? Im wondering how long between making and you packing them? I think I was under the pressione that they needed space to air out but maybe the reason isn’t that they need to air dry but just that they are dry enough before use? So potentially I could pack all the soap on my counter and make room for new soap working a few days?

[@TheSoapGal]

Thanks so much for reaching out! My water discount is a 50/50 ratio. You can refer to this guide to help illustrate the different ratios! www.modernsoapmaking.com/blog/lye-solution-in-soapmaking Packing happens typically around day 3 or 4. After the bar has been weighed and I've confirmed no more water evaporation.

[@jameschilton3556]

Thanks for the video - I generally cure my soap for at least 4 weeks but have used them sooner. I'm fairly new to soap making so follow the advice of more experienced soap makers. The consensus seems to be that for Castile soap, curing should be 6-12 months. It seems a bit excessive just to dry the bars? Is something else going on with a pure olive oil soap? I live in an area with very soft water and my Castile bars seem OK after a month.

[@TheSoapGal]

When using 50/50 lye solution, castille soap is cured for the same amount of time as all other recipes. It is safe to use in 48 hours but will need to be weighed until all the remaining water has evaporated which will give you your hard cure time for your recipe. Hope that helps!

If you're using the 50/50 lye solution your soap is safe to cut and R&D in 48 hours! If you're ever unsure you can drop some PH drops on it to ensure the lye has fully cured.

[@TessieDobey]

I know I am doing the most; I do a 25% water discount and allow my bars to cure for 8 weeks. Sometimes I get very busy and forget or the soaps are needed until then.

[@diddyharrison5244]

Your amazing. When water discount what’s the lowest you can go

[@arunapadmanabhan98]

Thanks for this video! It was very informative. I do have a question though.. You mentioned that the soap is packaged within a few days so is this packaging a plastic wrap and if so does the soap continue to effectively cure/lose moisture after being wrapped? ( I use cling film or shrink wrap after 4-6 weeks for all my soaps because I sell them at outdoor markets where paper or unwrapped soaps could get dirty)

[@TheSoapGal]

Thanks so much! So glad to hear and my bars are packaged in a soap box. If you're going to use shrink wrap, I recommend waiting until your bars have been weighed at a consistent weight for a few days in a row before shrink wrapping to ensure they don't shrink in the wrap.

I would not recommend curing the fridge as it will change the humidity of the soap! If you're using 50/50 lye you only to cure for 48 hours and then weigh the bars daily until you get a consistent weight!

Hi, i make cow milk soap from our own dairy cows, milk is not water, it is around 77% water. How long does it take to cure you think?

[@TheSoapGal]

Curing time is really up to you, if you want to use them after 48 hours you can. They might not be as hard as they would be in another few weeks, but they will not be soft, and they will be safe to use. The saponification process if completed within 48 hours of making the soap and curing is really the bar dehydrating.

[@nzubechiokezie1642]

Hello Joanna, thank you for your informative video on soap curing but I have a question. I made my soap with a 15% water and it's over 6weeks and the soap is still loosing weight which is making the soap weight inconsistent. I'm worried that my soap will not be the weight on the soap label when it finally gets to the end consumer. What do I do? I live in Nigeria, Africa.

[@TheSoapGal]

I'd recommend getting a dehumidifier in your soaping space to help remove the water faster or revisit your recipe. If you're not shrink wrapping, if it loses a small amount between when your packaging and it gets to the customer it's not the end of the world as the average consumer won't get home and weigh your soap to confirm it's the right weight. However, if you are getting significant size changes then I'd recommend revisiting your recipe.

Just please be careful if this is your first batch especially. Pine tar is already a challenge to work with let alone doing it for your first batch and let alone adding in a third factor.

Superfat is the amount of oil that is unsaponified after saponification. Your water : lye ratio has no impact on superfat.

[@TheSoapGal]

If your soap is not solidifying it's a sign you did not use enough lye or too much water. Before touching it with bare hands, I recommend using some PH drops as the lye likely has not transformed into soap and can burn your skin.
