🟥 DISCLAIMER: I make these videos to share my own personal methods and techniques for how I make cold process soap. These videos are not intended as tutorials for beginners. The content I create is meant for those who already have an understanding of cold process soap making. Cold process soapmaking involves working with sodium hydroxide (NaOH, also referred to as lye). Lye and raw soap can permanently damage your eyes and burn your skin. When making soap, you should already know and practice lye safe handling procedures and always wear safety gear during the entire soapmaking process, even while cleaning up. I hope you find watching my videos helpful or entertaining.

The video quality alone on this video is echanting, I feel like it should be up for an Oscar, like in several categories, but the instructionals were so very useful. Ty for sharing for the rest of the soap community!

[@hollysoapmaking]

*** Update: I posted a lather test short video (with a photo of the soap after 4 weeks) in case you're interested => kzbin.infoGn3_6QosMkY I haven't made a turmeric soap in really long time, so I thought I'd make one this summer. In the past, I've always replaced 15% of the total oils with turmeric infused olive oil but decided to do a 30% oil replacement with this soap. Thanks for watching! - Holly :)

Question: How does using this percent turmeric affect the lather color? I would have loved to see a lather test for this. What a beautiful color and always a joy to watch your videos.

[@hollysoapmaking]

I definitely should have done a lather test in the video! But to answer your question…I’ve used the soap, and it doesn’t affect the lather at all. It’s still white with no color. Thank you and thanks for asking!

[@mosesmega2513]

Nice Can you please share with me casting soda which brand is good to use

[@oliviaaguilar4971]

Holly can you share what size jar you used for your essential oil blend?

[@Yama30001]

Thanks for this beautiful video. I have a question concerning thé percentage of shea butter. Is 25%not too much? I thought it was not too good to use more than 15 to 20%

[@habiibahnaturals]

Hello Holly, thanks for sharing.... Can i add some active ingredients in the soap making such as kojic acid, glycolic acid or niacinamide.

[@rekhakaushik3469]

Please share the ph test video too and how to lower the ph of cold process soap? What is the range of ph for cp soaps?

[@theseragilo]

Found your channel while seraching for turmeric soap. A lovely video! My one question is if there is any fear of staining when using tumeric? Thank you!

[@jordanalvarez6927]

When you oven process the soap, do you use the same oven for cooking or do you have a designated oven for that?

[@theresacarpenter746]

I definitely want to try this soap. I'm very new at soap making so still trying to learn the % calculation. So my question is how many grams of water and grams of lye was used in this recipe?

[@rhemaborikorwodi7535]

Hi Holly, new subscriber, please The lye and water measurements wasn't listed at the end of the video.... Also, after the coco butter, what was the extra liquid that returned back with it before adding the Shea butter... Thanks a lot

[@jammypeter]

Your soap very very smooth and lovely. If I make soap, soap has many white, looks like spills everywhere. Its not soda ash but. It appears not only on the top but slowly increases during curing period. I'm clueless. Will you please help me. Any guess?

[@ashmenon91]

Hey Holly!! As always. Your videos are a fresh breath. Is there a color bleed to the lather at a 30% infusion?

[@hollysoapmaking]

Thank you! I’ve had no color bleed in the lather from the higher percentage oil replacement. Thanks for asking!

[@ashmenon91]

@@hollysoapmaking thankyou!!

[@dbcustomwork1725]

Hi, did you include the turmeric on the bottom of the jar that settled? Also, what are the measurements for the lye and water?

[@pretenred1]

Hello :) when you pour the infused olive oil to the whole batch of the oil, did you filter the turmeric powder? Or you put it all including the turmeric that was settled at the bottom? Thank you!

You make the prettiest soaps Holly and your videos are always so relaxing to watch. Do you mind sharing what kind of stick blender you use? Mine puts so many air bubbles into my batter. I have yet to find a good one.

[@hollysoapmaking]

Thank you so much! I use a Waring Quikstik. The shaft isn’t removable but it’s the only one I’ve tried that doesn’t pull air into the soap (as long as I tap the air out from the blender before starting).

[@forgodsgloryfarm]

@@hollysoapmaking Thank you for sharing. I've had the same experience, they all put so much air into my better, even with burping. I always notice how you don't have tons of tiny air bubbles in your batter when you make your soaps. I think I'm going to try the one you have.

[@forgodsgloryfarm]

@@hollysoapmaking Do you have the one with the 7 inch shaft maybe? I'm looking at them trying to find one that looks like yours does in the videos, and they look a lot different except I think maybe the 7 inch shaft one is the closest from what I can tell to yours. Would you mind maybe putting a link in the notes of the video that I could use?
