It's a recipe day, but only if you've made the soap paste. Seriously, go make it. We're not done with it.

Soap & Clay is a family owned business operating in Washington State, but started out online thanks to Mrs. Soap & Clay's kickass brother and his amazing web design skills. The business was started as a tribute to Mrs. Soap & Clay's grandmother, the OG maker in the family that cultivated everyone's love for the DIY life. The studio/retail shop opened in 2017 on 6th Ave in Tacoma, and immediately began teaching soap, bath bomb, lotion, and scrub classes to the makers and maker enthusiasts of the PNW. In 2019, the pottery studio opened as well, making the soap shop a busy place full of artistic energy every minute of the day.
Mrs. Soap & Clay has been featured on Business Spotlight, New Day Northwest, and was awarded a coveted place on the South Sound's 40 under 40 list in 2019, an award given to the most influential business people under the age of 40 each year. She cried when she walked up to the podium to accept the award. A lot.
Drawing from her chemistry background and her maker spirit, Mrs. Soap & Clay infuses her favorite things into her soapy designs and creates products that are fun to see, use, and learn to make. Stick around for this ride - she'll take you on a great one.

I know that title screen is weird. I give up today.
Yay! I said pH level for soap was 9!!
See… I listen, sometimes.
I made this soap paste (last week) and I’m currently letting my mixture cool to be able to transfer to a bowl (to chill and whip for sugar scrubs), and decided to check out some of the other things I can make with this paste. (Which is AMAZING and I LOVE it!) Just wanted to thank you for your recipes and all the “why’s n what for’s” in all these recipes. You’re a delight to watch and a hoot to listen to! ❤
This is the second video I have seen of yours and you are so funny. Your personality and just the way you talk is very fun. I make my own liquid castile soap and I use it for everything including brushing my teeth. I could yap all day about castile soap, but that’s why I started watching you. Thanks!
I bet Mrs. Soap & Clay has covered this elsewhere, but just fyi, not all preservatives are effective at higher pH ranges. Be sure to check the pH range of your intended preservative before use.
What preservative do you recommend
@@Carriedawaybath I'm sure whatever preservative Mrs. Soap & Clay used was perfect for that specific formulation. My comment was simply a caution in case someone thought they could use any preservative in place of the one she used. 😊
What preservative do you use for liquid soap
@tarawelter3648 Liquid Germall Plus, isothiazolinones, DMDM hydantoin are effective in higher pH environments. Some are formaldehyde releasers, so it's up to you the type of ingredients you are comfortable with using.
These videos are so helpful!
I'm super in love with your soap paste! Thank you for sharing, I've been really putting off duel lye just because I didn't quite understand it. You make it Super clear and less intimidating! I used a melt and pour base for my sugar scrubs for family (for Christmas/ my test subjects) and I wasn't super enthused.... Plus to write all that on a label would have been miserable. So to that I say thank you!
You're awesome as always. Thank you!! I was just thinking about trying this.
I’m working on my 7th batch of soap paste. The whipped sugar scrubs are a huge hit!! Next is liquid soap. What preservative do you recommend???
Does the fragrance separate in this? I made paste and use for my foaming sugar scrubs…love, love, love ❤️ thank you, but I’ve seen people say in groups that they’ve gotta use a FO modifier when they make liquid soap. Just looking for your advice. Thank you
Curious about this as well! I made liquid soap from a paste and my FO absolutely separated. For home use, I can shake it up, but to sell its no bueno.
I'm gonna have to make your paste recipe for funzies so I can soap along with this series. I need a break from my struggles with my bubble bars (I've spent a fortune over the years on recipes that just dont perform as well as liquid with my water). Harvest is done and my soap line has been created all the way till January. So I'm in my experiment and fun time of year.
the laugh i had off your pic set up 🤣🤣🤣
@MrsSoapAndClay Hello. I've made this and find that after diluting and using it as a bodywash, I find it drying. What can I use to make it non-drying? I used in the paste: Citric acid, silk fibers, sugar, and distilled aloe liquid. also use 1.5:1 dilution with distilled aloe and glycerin. please help
If you making hand soap this is the easiest recipe. Put it in a pump foam dispenser and bam, hand soap! I would NEVER use this on my face however. I use surfactants for those recipes. The ph is way to high for use on the face. I stay between 4.3 and 5.2 for anything on the face. This us a great handsoap or shower soap. You just might need some lition afterwards however.
I like your tee shirt! Maybe you got it as a freebie when you ordered shirts for merch, or maybe as a pre sale sample? I like that florescent green! That's not my colirs either, but I appreciate the color itself!

Can i use lauric acid instead of coconut oil. Can it be thickened with gum or salt. And can it be used as a shampoo?
You are using the dual lye paste? The same on for the whipped sugar soap scrub? Or is this one made with just potassium hydroxide?
I was trying to find a video on the face paste, ? Any help finding something on that is appreciated. I love your videos!❤️
Has anyone had issues of the foam soap separating? I've even added poly 20 thinking it would help but it still separates?
I made soap paste today so I could do the sugar scrubs. The dual lye soap paste. I had fun. It was a quick project before work. And you need to make merch 🥺🥺🥺🥺
The kidlets were talking about designing me some today. 😂❤️
For the soap paste that you used in this video, does it have butter in it? I made a soap paste that is basically my cp recipe but turned it into a duel lye thing like your soap paste video. I ask because I made hand soap like in this video with my soap paste and it's super cloudy and thick when using 2:1. I ended up having to dilute it alot but now I'm questioning if I should make a different soap paste and not use butters in it. What do you think?
I found 1 part paste to 2 part water I like best.
I'm curious when you made this one did yours separate like a week later? I pretty much did mine exactly how you did yours. If I give it a little shake it mixes right back up no big deal
This is years old but ideally the Ph of soap is between 8 and 10 (the lower the better).
Soap should have ph of 8 😊. Really enjoyed your video! I definitely want to make liquid soap
I’m ordering my goods so I can make my soap paste. It looks like a good time!
Mind if I ask what scale this is?
Can you make a concentrate? Meaning would I just add very little water. I bought Thieves from Young Living. It's not really thick but it's a 1 part to 30
Love your rings. Tell us the backstory!
Ha! They’re silicone rings - we decided to start wearing these instead of having to take our bands off all of the time for the projects we do. These three rings are actually mine and the girls’ - they lose them all the time so I just put them on my fingers until they notice and ask for them back. 😂
What preservative do you recommend for which products? I bought Pheonip and Optiphen but I dont know how/why to pick which one.
Phenonip is generally a great go-to for water based products (which this would be), and optiphen is good for oil based products (think scrubs, face creams, etc). Have fun!
Can you make shampoo from this?
Your foaming soap dispenser is not broke the soap is just too thick lol 😂 I learned the hard way.❣️
Ha! No, it’s properly broken, though thick soap can also be a problem. I busted the spring bit inside. 🤪
I made the sugar scrub for myself but forgot to put preservative in and the little nastiest took hold🤦😭
Oh no! I have a deep dive on preservatives coming up in a few days - weird timing!
Can you imagine the possibilities?? Yes, yes I can
Can u make shampoos with this?
You bet!
Can I use Vit. E instead of preservative?
For personal use, you could try it. I wouldn’t recommend it, and definitely for selling use a preservative to keep your company safe.
Is this liquid soap made from dual lye paste? I wanna try it
Hey! Not this one - I made the soap paste recipe for this guy a few weeks before this video, I think.
Can you turn soap paste into liquid shampoo?
You bet!
@@MrsSoapAndClay Good. I am trying to avoid having to put surfactants in products because most of them derive from coconuts but every shampoo video i find has surfactants. Would you be able to make a liquid shampoo video some day or do you already have one? .
I have an “all things soap dough” playlist in the works - it will be released in about a month, I’d say.
@@MrsSoapAndClay Great. Look forward to seeing it.
The soap should be diluted much further for a foamer
Hey! This worked for me, but there’s always room to play in soap recipes! That’s one of the things I love about soap formulations; there’s no one way anything SHOULD be done. Have fun!
Waiting for WSP to finally ship out my order so that I can make the soap paste.
You might get it by Christmas! 😂
@@MrsSoapAndClay if you're lucky. I stopped ordering from them. They kept sending me the wrong stuff and it took forever to get it
Yeah it’s a bit of a disaster over there right now. I’m actually nervous because I’m out of scrub containers and they’ve always been my go to. I may not have holiday scrubs.
@@MrsSoapAndClay that would suck. Is there no one else that you can order from?
@@MrsSoapAndClay - At least the order is in the warehouse (after 8 business days). As I told the customer service representative today, if they can't manage the 3 to 5 day lead time, then be honest and tell the customers what the actual lead time will be.
