What an incredible experience "to be" with you in the creation of this amazing process of soap making and soap design, Thank you so much. This is an incredibly beautiful soap with a wonderful fluid technique.

[@MissLoriAAnne]

Love this. Watched your previous video and I think the free hand turned out nicer. The swirls in this one are beautiful!

I love this! So beautiful and looks like waves in the ocean.

[@asumptuous1810]

I agree! I think of ocean waves. Gorgeous soap. I just wish the details of colourants were mentioned. She's an extremely talented soapmaker.

[@srbarreras]

[@shahriarmahmud5815]

Thanx I've been trying to find a video that shows this technique

[@leahmccoy2921]

I love your videos! I've learned so much about the soap making process! Can you show us how to make hair conditioner using emulsifiers? 😊😊

[@claudiafonseca5810]

So pretty, thank you.

[@charminglad124]

How long does it take before you can remove from mould and cut, thank you..

[@alkapai6165]

Thanks gonna try this tonight

[@anastasia10017]

so pretty.

[@JELLENJACKSON]

Very nice thank you for sharing

[@evaclassique4826]

great technique! What about a video on that new SBHP method on doing hot process chemical reaction soap on the bench only (with no extra heat added)? It is a very interesting new method. Also with suggestions on how to keep your batters warm while preparing the colors and swirls.

[@tnite1972]

Lovely

[@itzel6111]

Love It!!!

[@itzaboricua1]

Love it

[@Duhhh88]

Amazing

[@bcsvl0110]

hello amazing !! congratulations ! i'm french ans i want to know how mesures your mold ?? thanks sorry for my english !!

[@damarisdiaz7128]

I have a question I have to mixed-up the destilled water and the lye toguether

[@alyoshariver3302]

Please could you tell me what colourants you use? :)

[@matthewd.3276]

Hey, brand new soap maker...made my first batch today.....what is the blue and white stuff you put in to change to soaps color? Thanks

[@Story-007]

Love to see this, ❤️

[@carday12]

great. can you make dish detergent?

[@UriValdez]

So pretty

[@veronicawilliams2612]

I'm gone try this.

[@bethi5978]

How did you get your soap to color blue when it contains olive oil? Mine always changes to a greenish color.

[@joelrose8514]

Nice.

[@lenandsusan]

How would this work in a flat mold, like one that can be cut or have an inserted divider? This swirl looks like ocean waves, and I would so like to see it in the other mold.

[@kencouch2522]

Forgive the silly question if it has already been asked, but when measuring my Mica am I measuring for one third of the total soap being that's what I'm adding it to, or is each color being measured for the complete amount of soap? And I absolutely love this process I hope to try it

[@anastasia10017]

what brand of lye do you recommend ? and where to buy it? thanks

[@josephinesalvacion1816]

So easy

[@veronicahudson3041]

Thank you. Please advise as to what you poured into the oils right in the beginning of the video?

[@mariacuevas3211]

VERONICA HUDSON it was her fragrance.

[@happinesssky1]

whta colouring agent that we can easily find?

[@elisabethtyler9604]

What was the name of the colorant you used?

[@tealallshouse4412]

what kind of gloves do you use?

[@wendythistle3791]

I would like to start watching from the beginning, but, I cannot find the first. Thanks.

[@DanaTellier]

Is this done with mica pigment?

[@mancinims]

quali ingredienti hai usato?? grazie

[@kayshacolon8090]

is that the size of a 2lb log?

[@onestanorman3666]

Love your video. Could you please tell me where you got the rack to hold the mold?

[@elysafrancisco7240]

I've seen them on Amazon, sold as a set, but I've never seen just the wire rack sold alone.

[@siobhanclaire256]

The blue and green together - about how much of the total do they add up to? I'm guessing the base /white is probably is 2/3 and the colours 1/3?

[@Lilahblossom]

Hey I think I could do this!!! Thankyou Cathy! ps this is Lona

[@soaping101]

Lilahblossom I know you can do this Lona!

[@Dharlanna]

Soaping101. Teach Would you be willing to share where you got your plastic bowls? Thank you! I am learning so much from you!

[@Soapmage2014]

+Debbie Minter (Dharlee) You can find those at Walmart, Teach may get them elsewhere, not sure. I use them too and they're a great size and very economical. :)

[@Dharlanna]

+Soap Mage Thank you!

[@christdrivenministry9351]

How much fragrance oil can I add to this recipe? I'm a beginner making only for my family

[@kencouch2522]

most sites that sell fragrance will also share percentage per pound, most are around 5% of your oils

[@eishakhan9060]

Wowwww

[@rosalindmackey7239]

Only problem with melt and pour is no bubbles

[@mariahelena3752]

lindo

[@staciewillis4157]

Beautiful job, Teach! Has anyone told you, your the bomb-dig-a-dee lately?!

[@jamiekernc9925]

I'm not sure if I like the dividers or free pour more!! Both are beautiful, Teach!!

[@soaping101]

Jamie Kernc They are both such different looks. I think I like them both (:

[@christinageller9133]

what's causing to stock to the knife so bad

[@lmturmenne]

+Christina Geller Soap is sticky when it's freshly made. And a knife is a broad surface. If she'd have used a wire cutter it wouldn't have stuck to the wire.

[@sabamalik7214]

Why you not in favor to mention the name of ingredients in your video.

[@123456lyzard]

It's okay. I think you should have only went around the edges once or twice.

[@TrueTaurus72]

^^Exactly what king of Soap Base do you use? I tried doing this & failed HORRIBLY 😂 I think mines was more loose because I noticed yours look a lil thick

[@lmturmenne]

I notice you usually put the fragrance in the oils BEFORE you put the lye/water solution in. Is there a reason for doing it that way?

[@lmturmenne]

***** Doesn't affect the strength of the scent?

[@NefariousSpineLizard]

Not if you mix it near tepid, or 90-100 degrees. Over 100 is where you typically have more problems like that, in my experience.

[@lmturmenne]

KVLT SH1T Well, then that's the way I'll do it from now on. I'd rather add it to my oils - easier.

[@NefariousSpineLizard]

Absolutely! Saves you a step, and then you can use the light trace phase to throw in any additional additives instead. :3

[@lmturmenne]

KVLT SH1T That will help me when I decide to use colors too. I haven't used colors yet, because the trace comes so fast and thickens so quickly. I need to learn how to master colors.

[@Species710]

4th!

[@soaping101]

Species710 Happy 4th (in more ways than one)

[@ThePorrustyFox]

I do like this version a lot more that the previous, I fee the colors contrast a little better, but i'm guessing is because of the loser zigzag. Anyways, it made beautiful soap!

[@salgal7032]
