I should have stated clearly that by grinding and sifting the rolled oats, I was actually making a substitute for fine colloidal oatmeal to use in the soap. I've used them both in soap, but you may prefer to stick with real colloidal oatmeal instead of oat powder like I used. Sorry for the confusion! 😊
This is an oatmeal soap made with lots of shea and cocoa butter that I made for myself during these dry winter months. Thank you for watching! - Holly :)

🟥 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.

Hi! As several people have pointed out (thank you!), there is a difference between real colloidal oats and ground oatmeal (see some of the comments below that cover it really well and why you might prefer one over the other). I should have stated clearly that by grinding and sifting the rolled oats, I was actually making a substitute for fine colloidal oatmeal to use in the soap. I've used them both in soap, but you may prefer to stick with real colloidal oatmeal instead of oat powder like I used. Sorry for the confusion! 😊
Hi! This is one of my favorite soaps, especially during the winter when my skin gets super dry. The lather test at the beginning was at about 4 weeks.
I should have my goat milk, oats, and honey lavender soap video posted in a week or so.
Thanks so much for watching! -Holly :)
Thank you for being so generous!! Wishing you so much success🙏
Love oatmeal soap, I use it all year round and I can never keep it in stock for the shop. On a side note there is a difference between ground oatmeal and colloidal oatmeal. Oats powdered in a coffee mill at home is oat flour where as colloidal oatmeal can not be made at home it is a specialised product requiring specialised equipment in a manufacturing lab setting. Oat flour can not be dissolved in water (even if it looks like it may have) and therefore not as affective while colloidal oats can be dissolved completely and permanently giving it a much more potent effect on the dermis surface (as seen by the difference in price) I only mention it because there seems to be confusion on YT between the two products. 👍🍂🍂🍂
Thanks for pointing this out! I added a pinned comment to help clear up any confusion and should have been more clear in my video I was creating a substitute with what I had on hand but not actually making colloidal oats. 😊
It looks beautiful. I love how you demonstrate how you prepare the lye mixture. So many people don't record this part, thank you x
Your videos work as antidepressant for me and your voice is so soothing and soaps are up ⬆️ to the mark as always. Thanks for sharing. Lot’s of love and prayers from Pakistan 🇵🇰
I don't usually write comments, but after watching your videos, I felt like I have to say something. Your videos are amazing, I watch them mesmerized. Your voice is so calm. Your are so detailed. I'm new at soap making. I will be trying some of your recipes following up your steps. Thanks Holly for your wonderful channel and for sharing your knowledge with us. 🙏😌👏
Love the soap! Thank you Holly for posting such wonderful videos.. they are all filled with so much learning and knowledge base on simple soap making but most of all they are made from the heart and that fills my soul ❤️
Billions of thanks Holly 😊, I was able to produce my first soap using your receipt and process. Thanks to be so generous, wish you all the best 👍
One of my favourite soaps, I can never get enough of it. Thank you Holly, that was a wonderful video. The bars are divine. 😍 😍
You're the only soaper I wish I could buy from. Your videos are the best too ❣️
I was just thinking about adding some of my unscented soap to my shop but this recipe looks so wonderful I think I’ll make one batch for the shop and one batch for me and mine. Thanks so much for sharing.
Gracias Holly por tus videos, trasmiten mucha paz.
I love watching your videos. So soothing. Thank you.
Thank you Holly for sharing another beautifully presented video, and luxurious looking soap. Take care

This was so soothing and throughout I love it thank you so much😄🙌🏾
I love you channel Holly, it's so relaxing! And i love making soap, so i love watching lol! Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!!
There's always something special about simple unscented soap. It's always nice to go back to it after using scented for a while. 🙏🙏🙏
Oh please please invite Holly to your Soap Makers Lounge ... Waiting eagerly to hear from her ❤️
@@papiadutta4428 I would love to have her on. In due time 😊🙏
Great video Holly. I know this is an older video but I decided to try oatmeal soap for the winter and this video was very helpful.
Thank you.
Hi I’m very new to soap making. I love watching your videos because I always learn something (even if it’s something small like pouring onto a spoon to minimize bubbles😉). And I also enjoy the music and your soft voice in your videos. Very relaxing 😁
I made this and wow ! It’s perfect !
No matter how many fragrances and essential oils I have , I always prefer unscented soaps for myself , beautiful as always Holly
I like the tip of sifting the oatmeal!
Beautiful and creamy looking- thank you
Holly, you are so fab! I'm gonna make this. I love you!
Lovely as usual. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 😘
Thank you for all your great videos!
Your videos are so relaxing to watch❤
Thank you for sharing your knowledge & recipe 🙏💜
You videos are truly amazingggggg! Thank you !
Amazing soap, like always😉
Thank you so much for this video. The timing is perfect as I was wanting to make an oatmeal soap. One question: How did you know that it had gone through complete gel phase after 3 hours?
I am a new soap maker...just for me and my family. I love your videos. Thank you
Thank you so much and thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing your video. It got my creative juices going to make soap again. 💕
Your soap making was sooo relaxing your soothing voice helped, I’ve tried several Ho E made soaps, loving them all, could you advise on a soap for itchy skin please ?
Hello there! Another great video, thank you! Here in Japan fragrance oils are really expensive so I have finally decided to get a load of supplies from Bramble berry and I have ordered apart from classic Lavender oil which I adore I want to get Oatmeal/Honey scent and I will use your recipie so I hope it turns out as beautiful as your!!
This is fantastic!
so lovely to watch it! its my treat after long day...
Thank you for another great video. With a recipe like this how will the usual 4-6 weeks cure/dry time work or it need more?
Its a beautiful color💖
Beautiful!
Thank you for a very informative video. I am new to soap making and will try this recipe first. So I understand the no fragrance part, after it finishes drying the soap will not have a scent at all?
Wow nice ...I do make soaps for myself but I am.kind of crazy so I decorate my soaps with flowers and mica and edible glitters and more.... Tomorrow I will make this one ..Thanks for the video...
Holly.!
You’re great.
Thanks for the great videos.
I'm from Bangladesh.
Take love.❤️
Thank you for the video!!This recipe looks so good! Unfortunately im a beginner so i need a recipe 😢 i really don't understand the percentages.
I always try to put collodial oats in my soaps, I like to be able to use them to exfoliate as well 🙂. My skin is very dry in the winter and I love my superfat to be 6%. This looks nice and creamy just like I like it too! I also like to make oatmilk soap and use oat extract, very nice on the skin, you should try it if you haven't already 😉. Thank you Holly for your relaxing and informative videos, ill be watching for the next one. Stay safe my friend. 😊💕
Thank you so much! I will add oat milk and oat extract to my list of soaps to make! Thank you for mentioning it. Hope you're doing well! 💕
Love this video. Thank you for sharing! :)
Thanks for watching!
so pretty!
Hello I enjoy your videos so calming to watch all your different techniques. My question is how long is the cure time.
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing! I'm just curious about all the process. Didn't understand about the 5% superfat? In this recipe how is expressed? Thanks!
Muchas gracias 🙏😃
Lovely ,thank you for sharing .
Can I add some honey to this recipe and if so , how much would you suggest ?
Thanks
Hi, i love your video and actually just tried to make this soap. How long did you cure the soap before it was able to be used? Thanks x
Thank you for sharing. Do appreciate
Hi Holly, beautiful video and music.
Just to mention colloidal oats and simply ground oats are two very different things. Colloidal oats are produced in a lab by processing oats in a manufacturing setting by boiling the oats and water soluble active compounds are turned into powder. It cannot be replicated at home by simply grounding oats. Colloidal means it never settles at the bottom and forever dispersed in a medium and cannot be separated/filtered out. So if you take USP grade colloidal oats, it would dissolve in water and never settles at the bottom, nor can be caught with sieve or filter of any sort, whereas if you take simply ground oats like you just did in the video, they would settle at the bottom. It also has certain efficacy guarantee that they measure in the lab for anti-inflammatory effects on skin for it to be called colloidal oats. That’s why it’s USP grade colloidal oats and not simply ground oats.
I definitely should have mentioned that you can grind oats as a substitute for true colloidal oats in soap, but that there is definitely a difference. In my experience, they have both worked well for me in soap. Thanks for mentioning this! I added a pinned comment to hopefully help clear up any confusion! 😊
@@hollysoapmaking Thank you for your honest humble response. I love your videos. Big fan!
@@hollysoapmaking I suspect this is a difference without much distinction. I have never bothered to purchase colloidal oats and have had fantastic results from finely ground oatmeal made in my BlendTec. I didn't bother to sift it. It makes luscious, creamy lather in my experience.
Hi what's in the soap that makes it really soapy? Great video
Thank you for sharing
You make it all look so easy lol.
Thanks.
can i dissolve the colloidal oatmeal in water and add it at the end? (and deduce tje water amount). I jist don t wan t any graininess or exfoliation, just the soothing effects from the actives in colloidal oatmeal.
Very good👏👏👏👏
Holly, hello! You often use avocado oil in your recipes. I am only able to purchase this oil: La Vida Organica refined (Spain). Do you think it would be suitable for soap? Thank you!
I adore your vidéo
@Hollys Soapmaking what was the lye ratio you used by weight? i dont know how much to use for this amount of oil.
I noticed that the temperature of the lye and oils was around 91-94 - is it normal to let it cool that low? What determines how much you let it cool before you combine?
Which are the E. oils & F. oils that will stay for a while? All the fragrance oils I used in my CP soaps fades away during the curing period itself. Could you please suggest some solution to this? Thank you.
Thaank you for your informative video. (all your videos are informative). Kapia mera i want to make good soap as you... Thank you so much
Do you put the oatmeal in the soap calc?
Could you please add the amount of distilled water? thank you
Hello Holly,
Will the oven remain food-safe if it's being used for oven processing of soap?
Yes
Can you use food grade lye?
I would really love to try to make your soap. I’m however struggling to know how many grams of water and how many grams of lye I need for this recipe if you could kindly advise? I will use the exact weights of oils you have used which I could see in the calculator. Many thanks 😄
Hola Holly, te escribo desde España. He descubierto hace poco tu canal y estoy enganchada, me encantan tus vídeos y tus jabones. Llevo poco tiempo en el mundo del jabón y aún tengo mucho que aprender. No conozco tu método para curar el jabón con el horno, yo siempre los dejo 24 horas, los corto y después los dejo curar por 4 a 6 semanas. Pero entiendo que tu método acelera este proceso. Me encantaría ver un video explicando este proceso, la diferencia entre un jabón curado en frío y por tu método del horno. Me ayudaría mucho a seguir aprendiendo y crecer como fabricante de jabones. Muchas gracias por compartir tu sabiduría. Un abrazo desde España donde tienes una gran admiradora
La diferencia es que con el metodo de el horno se acorta el tiempo de espera para poder usar el jabon. Tratalo de va gustar, es muy simple calienta el horno a 170 grados Fahrenheit o la temperatura mas baja de tu horno, una vez caliente apagalo. Mete el jabon en el horno y dejalo 3 horas dentro del horno, o toda la noche y lo sacas por la mañana. Cota el jabon y dejalo secar 4 semanas mas y listo.
@@sonialisee1631 muchas gracias. ¿Entiendo que no tiene el mismo efecto que el hot process donde el jabón se puede usar casi de inmediato verdad? Acorta un poco el tiempo de curado pero igualmente hay que dejarlo curar...
@@cristinalalala5216 Si se puede usar inmediatamente pero se va gastar mas rapido. Si lo dejas secar 4 semanas te va durar mas. Tambien si lo haces para vender es mas seguro dejarlo secar.
@@sonialisee1631 mil gracias 😊 🥰
Very very nice 👍❤️🧡😍
Beautiful soap! I will have to try this recipe because my skin is sooooo cranky during the winter months. The dry air is torture!!😱
Thank you! Mine is so crazy dry during the winter.
I'm still learning so much about making soaps, so... sorry if this sounds like a dumb question. How could you tell the soap had jelled after 3 hrs? Did you take it out of the mold to check? 🤔
Definitely not a dumb question! I did lift the lid and look at the top of the soap. It had a gelled look to it that was much different that how it looked initially. I should have taken a video of it, actually, but here's a link to an article by Lovin' Soap with photos in case you want to see those. Mine didn't crack or wrinkle up, but it was completely dark all the way across. I'm not sure if it would have overheated or anything, but since the gel phase was complete, there was no reason to leave it in the oven any longer, so that's why I removed it at that point. Hope this helps!

@@hollysoapmaking Thank you so much! I love all your videos!!!
You have beautiful hands ❤
What’s the the purpose of the lye?
How do you know when soap is completely cured and safe to use?
I love this video but please show me exact recipe and how much to use . I don’t get that soap calculator and numbers and percentage don’t make sense to me
Instead of lye can't I use soap base
I need the measurements of materials used
Lye: 35% lye concentrated -100% = 65% (water)
water: 65% x 1000g divide by 100% = 650grams
lye : 35% x 1000g divide by 100% = 350gram
Precisa de legenda português
how much each
👍👍👍💖
how much
How many grams sodium hydroxide to how many grams of water?
Lye: 35% lye concentrated -100% = 65% (water)
water: 65% x 1000g divide by 100% = 650grams
lye : 35% x 1000g divide by 100% = 350grams
Starting my interest in making soaps. This may be a very dumb question but we can’t just copy your recipe right? We always have to start with what mold we are using and go from there correct? 😰😰
Not a dumb question at all! Yes, you need to adjust the recipe for your mold volume. In case you need any help with that, here's a great article by Modern Soapmaking on exactly how to do that: www.modernsoapmaking.com/blog/how-to-resize-a-soap-recipe-for-your-soap-mold-imperial-and-metric
Hope that helps!
@@hollysoapmaking Just wanted to extend my gratitude, for not only your beautiful videos but for taking the time to reply to our comments. Your videos have motivated to try and make my first batch. I’ve been a stay at home mom for 10 years and recently just tried to find a passion and soap making sparked something in me! So very thankful for your videos.
hello, please tell me the weights of all the ingredients, because that's the only reason I watched your video, thank you
