You are amazing! I cant imagin how you do all this, the vidoes and all the other things. I am in set hell-south. All mine deflated🤣. I have twweked them so many times. They still feel great on the skin leaving a soft moister barrier. It really doesnt matter if they are super bubbles, foam or lather. I just get the feeling folks do not really get what they are. If I can persued them to test it, they like it. But most will not even try it. Bubble bath is what I really would like. I am horrible with joining groups. Its too much for me. So when are you going to publish a book? 😝 just kidding lady! As if you have time for that! Keep it up & et me know what I can do to help? I.e. I watch at least 30 seconds of ads, like & subscribed. I really have no one to share with. Maybe I should just share to my other email? IDK? But in all sincerity, Thank you my lady!

I’ve been taking in-person and online classes to learn more about soap making. The problem is that nobody really tells you Why you’re doing this or that, or adding this and that. I started watching you because you explain everything, and encourage learning not just doing for no reason. Because of you I now know the properties of oils and why this works better than that in a recipe. For me the end goal is to be able to formulate really great recipes on my own. You’re the only one I’ve found who really breaks it down to where it makes sense. And with your very clear and concise explanations, and seeing your work visibly, I understand the process much better. I did make your soap paste, and then the whipped scrub, following your directions exactly and both came out perfectly! An instructor suggested adding Peg6 to my whipped scrubs, to add more bubble. But I don’t really see the added benefit of more bubbles in a scrub. It functions perfectly as to its purpose.

[@vixenligon1167]

After finally finding your soap paste video, I am at a loss on how on Earth anyone got your whipped sugar scrub wrong. Seriously, it is an extremely easy recipe to follow. You can even modify it extremely easily. I couldn't for the life of me find your paste recipe. I found all the recipes that call for the paste. Then at 3:00 in the morning it showed up in my KZbin feed. KZbin is crazy sometimes. I made a variation of it with my Queen Bee honey recipe and it turned out beautiful. I was able to add bee propolis tincture and royal jelly, plus orange essential oil at the end and it is still wonderfully creamy. What on Earth did these women do to your recipe?

[@1909julz]

You’re an amazing soul! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I appreciate the science (the why) in your videos! From your original videos I use your paste recipe for my scrubs. Because of your chemistry tips, I had perfect formulated scrubs.

[@j.m.johnson]

I wanted to let you know that I’ve never made a sugar scrub like this before and mine came out beautifully!! Thank you for all that you share!

[@bubblehuntersoaps8542]

I've used your recipe and love it. I left that group a long time ago because of all of the negativity. And you are GIVING them the recipe. Everyone is looking for handouts and are never happy. Keep doing what you're doing... I appreciate all of the in depth information you provide.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Thank you! I appreciate what you said.

[@PoogieWoogie12]

SEVEN PARTS LMAO I’m lit I’ll watch when I get home 😍

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Seven!

[@karenMQSoapery]

I also added glycerin at whipping then my fragrance then germall plus and it came out so creamy fluffy it looked like whip cream my very first time making it so it works both ways for me I also added a little jojoba oil tablespoons and starch it still worked out so good perfect for cream soap

[@karenMQSoapery]

Thank you for teaching me new things im very happy with all my products so far

[@tara6777]

I swear, you can't make this stuff up! I was literally, this minute, watching your sugar scrub video, from January!💜 The other day, my son, asked about sugar scrubs; I told him give me some time, I know who to go to for guidance 😉

[@TracyD2]

Synchronicity strikes again

[@pamlambert7181]

I love watching your vids because you give a total explaination of what to do and why. I love the fact that you know the chemistry and pass that knowledge on to us. Thank you

[@jainataylor3935]

As a hobby soaper, I’m so glad I found your channel! It’s been so helpful!

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I’m so glad to hear that. Thank you. Seriously.

[@TracyD2]

Look at you. You are a born teacher.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I don’t know about all that. I appreciate your comment, though. ❤️

[@karenMQSoapery]

I’ve been playing around with this recipe for along time now and every time I make it I add to it I have no problem with it at all I did play around I added sci jojoba oil and beads and clay rose oil there all were the different recipes I must say I’m very happy with it you can do so much with that base I also made a gell like sugar scrub I’m having fun making different scrubs and whipped soap whipped sugar scrub and I made a face scrub with bentonite clay my next will be rose clay or something I’m always playing around to see what I come up with when I add just a oz of sci noodles to it omg it was so fluffy and creamy I love it

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I love that it’s been so versatile for you, and I’m digging all the additions you’ve made!

[@heathertrusley8146]

Hey Karen! at what point did you add in SCI?

[@karenMQSoapery]

I melted it with the paste and stearic acid water

[@79Liana]

Lol I’m one of those random people. I’ve been watching your channel the last 3 days! Love everything I’ve seen so far 😊

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Welcome!

[@norawalsh5471]

I'm super excited for all these upcoming videos. I've had some questions, but have been holding off on them since you were making this play list. Thank you so much Mrs! 😊

[@nancykelly9712]

OH YESSSSSSS!!! I'm so happy you're doing this series!!!!! I was so hoping you'd do something like this based on paste!! Thank you so much!!! 💞💞💞

[@crystalmccallcrystalssoaps2752]

Thank for doin this. I made the whipped sugar scrub from ur recipe. I had white stuff . I think it was the stearic acid. I melted it but when I wilhipped it it was spots I guess u would say. It was use able but I did want to sell it. I did say anything cuz its not ur fault I did something wrong. I don't get people y anyone would say something about ur recipe when it's probly them not u clearly if they made it and it didn't turn out right. Thanks lady love love ur channel and u..

[@deedevlin4539]

Mrs… as you know it works perfectly and they love it! Our little fam appreciates all you do❣️

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I appreciate YOU!

[@robynt50]

I know this video is about 1yr old, so I may not get an answer to my question but. . . . 1st off thank you @MrsSoapandClay for sharing all of your awesome knowledge, I love your videos and your channel and I have learned so much! I made a batch of your soap paste and I am so excited to make me some sugar scrubs! My question is this: I've seen a lot of other sugar scrub recipes with polysorbate 80, can I add this to your recipe? Would it add any benefits? Or would it be a waste? TIA to anyone that can help me with this! ❤

[@facialsonDemand]

I feel like your videos are easily followed. Thank you for giving your time and expertise.

[@fortifyelevate8746]

So thankful for this series and ALL the shares you’re doing on your channel. This series of videos is extremely helpful and easy to follow. I VERY much appreciate the lengths you’ve taken to make all of this so super clear!! Positive vibes abound to you and yours!!

[@Nina-2311]

When whipping I always think of whipping cream. If whipped correctly... you got yummy whipped cream. If whipped too much.. you got butter. We want yummy whipped cream here😆

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Truth!

[@waynegross2113]

Please explain to me WHY, someone took your recipe than took it to another channel and shot it down.....BEFORE, she contacted you for help on her screw up? I hate soap forums for this reason! They all lie, I can't stand that! Anyway, I've made this exact recipe from your previous video and tried it myself! It's beautiful and EASY to use. It is also cheaper than buying a premade foaming bath whip. I use it to sell to my customers as a shave whip, they love it! Thank you for sharing a recipe everyone can have success with, even new soapers! There are some rules that apply to all bath whips and it is startingg cold and not over whipping it! I'm not a great piper either. It took me a year to pipe flowers! Without them looking sad. Ugh, it was the bain of my existence for awhile! Jill Gross

[@rose2013]

The original recipe seemed great! I am not by far super experienced with hot process. I feel if you can follow directions closely there should be no problem. Thanks again for sharing your wealth of knowledge 🙂

[@Theblackteaspill]

This playlist is exactly what I need! I am making different recipes right now for my shop, thank you for this assistance!

[@Maga_Madmags]

Made my first batch of paste yesterday. I’m so excited to get started. I am big on tallow and I am wondering if I can use tallow instead of mango next time around? Thank you for all your videos 😊

[@missmaww.]

I try your recipe and I adjusted it a bit n it worked very well for me n I did whipped it after it cool down and by the way I live in the Caribbean so it always hot lol

[@bringthemesstv]

Glad you did this one because I like your channel. I did think that video was wild and very hard to understand but I know how to hit the search button and see who else made it instead of leaving crazy comments ( unless I see people not using preservatives and tossing in food🥴🤦🏿‍♀️).

[@gerdacozijns8135]

Just one word for it : whaaaaw

[@katelillo1932]

I finally - ! - got around to making the turmeric and honey bar I had planned all the way back when you did the honey video like a month ago. It smells like a carrot bread or something 😱 so warm and slightly sweet and just delicious! I did not think that I would still be able to smell the spice after saponification.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I love that! Sounds incredible.

[@NaturalMackie]

Thank you as always for sharing. Your videos are amazing.

[@miriamm1914]

Thanks for always explaining why and how your creations❤

[@sweethopenaturals]

I finally made the soap paste, to make whipped sugar scrubs, since I am down to my last gallon of crafters choice foaming whip...and I sure wasn't going to pay a gazzilion dollars for it!! So.....Thank you thank you, thank you! Made my first batch of scrub this morning and I am just wondering why I didn't do this sooner! You are a godsend!

[@wendylambel39]

Exactly what I’m having trouble with! I need to follow in order!

[@gloriab6274]

Thank you very much! I was having trouble with your recipe and commented on Saponification Nation, but like I said love your channel, you always take the time to help us 🥰, I always learn something from you, basic or complicated, thank you from sharing your knowledge, we appreciated it with our hearts 💕, I made soap paste and I’m ready to make sugar scrubs and all the soapy things again 🥰!

[@jamijones7206]

i love that you came back to this. I love your paste recipe, and always excited to learn from your wealth of knowledge.

[@rayne5221]

really looking forward to trying this recipe. (Both the original and one that is coconut free version due to family with coconut allergies)

[@sjastram]

I commented on that thread. I have used your recipe (it has become my go to, with a couple of mods, thank you!) very successfully. I just used up some soap dough that is about a year old. Still great....maybe even better. Lol I did watch and rewatch all of your scrub and whipped soap videos before trying it. I have also done another, so maybe my experience kept mine from being issue free. Thank you for doing these, I learn so much from you and Humble bee and Me. Love the deep dives.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I appreciate you being willing to comment! It’s such a scary thing, commenting in support of someone or thing on a post that is obviously intended to be the opposite of that. ❤️

[@yana-marisaedwards1765]

Hey! Do you mind sharing what modifications you've made please?

[@phatwombat4241]

I followed your recipe and the results are amazing. My customers love the sugar scrubs. I’ve learned so much from you. Thanks for sharing!!! Blessings

[@rustynails8756]

I so love your channel and your thoughtful way of introducing information. I have made soap for about 9 years and thought I had learned a lot, until I found you. If you ever want to mentor an old lady soaper please let me be first in line. (I live in Shelton, hint hint) Thank you for the in depth discussions on everything from beginner level soaping to the complicated world of copyright law. I so hope you will be continuing next year with your youtube channel. Blessings to you.

Your such a great soap maker, just wow.

[@DebsShipley1969]

You really are a diamond. Thank you

I have been using a detergent whipped soap base for my sugar scrubs, this will be so much less expensive to make. Thank you!

[@mnharlan7662]

And I meant surfactant, not detergent.

[@katiekatcurious]

yayyyyyy i’m so excited for this!!!

[@Jessicaakathesoaplady]

I’m so here for this I love 💕 your channel

[@Carriedawaybath]

I made the paste yesterday and now I’m getting ready to wrap up and store until I use this week to make a whipped sugar soap scrub. How do you not over whip? I’m not a baker 🤪 so I’m wondering if you have any tips for me to not over whip. I love your channel and your wealth of knowledge❤

[@DeaJ580]

Mine turned out great everytime! I didn't use the same recipe for the paste though. I am excited for this series!! I appreciate all of your videos 🤗❤️

[@faithjett8687]

I’ve made your whipped soap from paste and a whipped soap from shreds. They both whipped up beautifully but, in both, after a couple weeks most of the sugar melted. No one else is complaining about this so I’m trying to figure out what I did wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Yeah I saw your comment on that post.

[@faithjett8687]

Yeah, I used aloe vera juice for the water the first time I made it because that’s what I put in my soap. It came out a lot more whippy the second time when I just used water as instructed. But my sugar still dissolved. 😭

[@thehomelessdistrict7930]

Great teacher

[@bluelot7546]

Hi I am a real beginner - would you mind posting the lye amounts for the base I know its 2 to1 or each but how much do you put in ounce wise ? Sorry I can't figure that out - I LOVE your videos and am learning so much thank you !!!!!

[@themossgarden9698]

Use a star tip, I used to be a cake decorator. Extra large cupcake tip

[@lunasavonnerie]

I've been using this recipe and I was wondering if you have percentages for scrub its self ?☺ Thank you

[@purplebutterfly4078]

I ve recently discovered your channel and it s very cool.This whole production of wellness products like bath bombs, sugar scrubs, natural soaps etc is fascinating to me,would love to learn some of these skills,even if it would be just as a hobby and necessarily a full time business. Was wondering how did you get into this whole thing?

[@lorriannewilliams7764]

Can you please say if I can use infused oils with herb to make the base? Will I have to use a preservative if yes? What would you recommend?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

From the paste stage? No problem whatsoever. I recommend using a preservative for all mixes, but if you’re infusing from the actual making of the paste stage, there’s no concern with the infusion going bad. Have fun!

[@nadja2578]

I did it wrong 😱🤦 I added the glycerin with the whipping process...that's probably why it didn't stay fluffy, it gets kind of hard/solid (? Well 🤔 a hard fluff)

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Yup, that sounds like why! So the glycerin is really needed during the melting of the paste stage because it separates the saponified chains to allow it to remain fluid in the whipping process.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

That said, you can melt that ENTIRE batch down (that you’ve put sugar and stuff into), add some more paste and do it again. You will have a more bubbly whipped sugar scrub at the end because of the sugar you’ve melted down. If you wanted to play with what you currently have in front of you.

[@nadja2578]

@@MrsSoapAndClay next time! I still have soap paste. Whipped soap sugar scrub is not my friend, one time the sugar desolved and formed a layer on the skin that was hard to get off... what fun 😉

[@bellaoshun5024]

First things first, I appreciate your genuineness in your videos and I want to thank you for that. This may be a question already answered so I apologize in advance. How long before you can use/sell the whipped sugar scrub from the paste? thank you in advance and be blessed

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Thanks for the kind comment! You can use the scrubs from paste right away - since you’re effectively turning it into a melt and pour base, no extra cure time is needed. Have fun!

[@yana-marisaedwards1765]

This recipe looks amazing. Can i substitute the olive oil for say rice bran oil?

[@evelynliner8069]

Love it, I just love your videos. Can you put the percentages for it? Thank you :)

[@KKM-eq9zs]

I made the soap paste following your recipe exactly, but when I remelt with the water, glycerin, stearic acid in the crockpot, it never fully dissolves into the solvents, it’s always gel-like.

[@MsAubrey]

Dang it… now I have something else to try now. 😂 Going to watch the from shreds video right now… because I have lots of shreds. 😂

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Get rid of those shreds!!

[@MsAubrey]

[@ashleiwilliams447]

Is it possible make this with left over soap shreds I have? Also thank you for all your amazing videos!!!

[@tammyssudz]

Hi Mrs Soap & Clay. Love your videos BTW. My question is this: I made this recipe and I did accidently add .5g of extra water to it. I whipped forever it seemed and as I was whipping, I checked it frequently because I was worried about over whipping. Though it did double in size, it never really got that whipped consistancy. It was more creamy. I wewnt ahead and put it in jars and I waited until the next day. It is not falling out of the jars, and it seems more firm today. Did I do soethiing wrong ? Like I said I checked the consistancy frequently. I also checked the pH and it is 8-9. I followed all your instructions so I don't understand.

[@kelseyyates8812]

Do you need to add the sugar to have it stay stable? Or can it just be the paste, glycerin steric and it stays whipped?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

It will stay stable as a base or in whipped form without the sugar.

[@kelseyyates8812]

@@MrsSoapAndClay thanks. I do an emulsified sugar scrub, and want to do a just whipped soap.

[@Minwa621]

I’m excited to try this! My question is…will it melt when shipping it? I currently make coconut oil sugar scrubs and have a heck of a time trying to keep them stable during shipping by using ice packs and thermal wrap.

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I haven’t had any problems with melting, and I frequently use the tubs of whipped scrubs to stabilize molds on top of heating pads, but I dunno. Anything could happen!

[@Minwa621]

@@MrsSoapAndClay thank you!!

[@skuldarchleone]

I wonder if i can make the paste as cold process instead of hp in the crockpot. At the moment its easier for me to mix it here and there when it seperates than standig by the pot for an hour or longer.....

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

So you can, but realistically what that looks like is more soap dough in nature than paste. Which is fine, still works the same.

[@skuldarchleone]

@@MrsSoapAndClay good to know, i asumed that the consistency would be a bit different but i wasn't sure. Thank you

[@authentichomestead]

Do you actually have a link to the video where you actually make the soap paste? With so many videos you have I'm having a hard time finding it.

[@mvelenagarcia]

Hiiiii, long time no see..... Working My bum off. I hope everything is good on your side of the world. Question.... Could i use shea or cocoa Butter instead of mango?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Hi! Busy is good; means you’re staying out of trouble. You sure can substitute!

[@lisalisar7814]

Does this need a preservative?

[@katiekatcurious]

does it need a preservative? (since water might get into it in the shower? i’m not familiar enough with soap paste but i know that regular cp soap doesn’t need it)

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I recommend a preservative in this application because the product may get used in the shower. We’ll talk more about preservatives in another section of this series, but a broad spectrum that does equally well in oil and water based applications with a ph range between 4 and 8 will work well.

[@katiekatcurious]

@@MrsSoapAndClay just watched todays video and saw you mentioned that! thanks for your prompt response :)

[@michellegonzalez7202]

My soap paste comes out great but it’s the melt down that I can’t seem to figure out what I’m doing wrong. I let it cool down but when I mix it I find soap particles in my whip. Tried different things but can figure it out😢

[@debbieescobar6267]

Is a stand mixer vital? I just make products for myself and friends and would rather not invest in one if possible. Hand mixer ok?

[@feisty_jex]

Hi I made the paste not the exact one i switch the mango to shea and the coconut to babassu but did a water discount on top 🤪 now my question is do you do whater discount or leave it at 38% and i did a way higher super fat I am learning still with soap paste 😊 thank you for your informations love love love your content

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

I usually do 38%, but the water discount will help in your base, so have fun!

[@feisty_jex]

Awesome thank you will retry as the other was waxy !! Learning curve hehe

[@Theblackteaspill]

Possibly can I use Cetyl alcohol in the paste for a more face friendly exfoliation?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

You can include cetyl alcohol!

[@sydneyrobinson6811]

So if I just wanted to make a whipped soap out of the paste, would I just exclude the sugar? Sorry, I tried seeing if you had just a whipped soap video with the paste, but I didn't see one and I'm new to this type of product! 😅

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Hey! Yup just exclude the sugar!

[@jamijones7206]

i took a variation of this recipe (replaced mango with shea) out to a fair in the summer, and it began to melt... would adding a bit of beeswax help stabilize it enough not to melt? or do you think i would have to use an E-wax?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

Beeswax could help, for sure. Also consider taking your scrubs and melty products in a cooler for outdoor summer fairs - the heat has been a lot this year!

[@Theblackteaspill]

Hi! Can I use shea butter in the soap paste instead of mango butter?

[@MrsSoapAndClay]

You bet!

Do these have to sit like bar soap? Or does the soap paste have to sit?
