Your embeds are nothing short of amazing, and the music you picked for this video was both beautiful, while at the same time had a "haunting" quality to it - soul stirring. I absolutely loved this video!
This was a very useful video because I decided a few days ago that I was going to use oat milk in my next batch of soap! I've never used sugar in my soap before, but I might give that a go too.
@@IDreamInSoap Actually, I have a very important question regarding the sugar... I want to make a soap containing Thyme as one of the essential oils and I know that Thyme tends to accelerate like heck. None of the other oils are known for misbehaving that badly. Could the added sugar help me with that problem? Even a little bit would be a relief...
@@Asmielle HI, probably not I'm afraid, the small amount of sugar will not slow down a fast moving oil. I think your best best is soaping at cool temperatures, getting everything else prepared including colors mixed in if using. Just blend to emulsion only (not trace) and then put the EO in at the last moment and hand stir in.
AW, such a lovely comment, thank you so much that's really kind of you to say Life As Queen Bri and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment for me :-)
So pretty, I honestly wouldn’t be able to bring myself to ruin your beautiful soaps by using them, I’d have to place them on a shelf in my living room for all to see, like special pieces of beautiful art work. ❤️
AW thanks Susan. I actually like using them as I then think you get to 'interact' with them so much more and the do last a good while. I can always make more :-)
This soap is so cute, but all of your soaps are wonderful . I am fairly new to soap making (5 months) and I aspire to some day make soaps as beautiful as yours are. Have a wonderful holiday season.
Wow Lisa, that looks fantastic! You did such an outstanding job with the molds and the entire soap preparation and design. Thank you so much for sharing.
Lisa , you took a very lovely soap and made it very interesting. I too make oat milk at home . I don't rinse them like u showed but it's something new to know. Thank you. This is one of the favourite soaps with my clients. . now I only have to get the molds from you via my family. I do not want to pay an arm and a leg for postage / customs . 😊.. Hats off to your creativity
Thank you Lisa for all your tips! I wish I had seen this video sooner, you provided solutions to many problems I've been wondering about for my oat milk soaps. I can't wait to try again!
AW, such a lovely comment, thank you so much that's really kind of you to say marcel's soaps and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment for me :-)
Hey again Micol, glad you found the little tip useful. Thank you so much for all your support this year, I really appreciate it. Here's to a better 2021
Lisa these are adorable I just love them!! So so cute!! I hope you and your family and your babies had a merry Christmas!! Can't wait to see what's ahead for a New Year!! Hopefully better than 2020!!
Oh yes, these are very very cute, love the embeds. Thank you so much for the tips about oat milk, I always wanted to add it to soaps but wasn't sure about it. So will definitely try it now!😃 And I love your calm voice teaching and explaining. Once again, thank you so much for sharing your talent, Lisa, and thank you for all the gorgeous soaps and videos throughout this weird and in many ways challenging year! Wishing you a very Happy New Year! Much love ❤️🙏🏼
Thank you for doing this video it was most informative and I can't wait to see what new things you will have in your shop. Best wishes for the rest of the holidays. Stay safe dear.
Beautiful soap Lisa, I just made my first oatmeal and honey soap and used the ice cube method but will give making my own using your method a go. Thanks for a great video.
Wow! This is my first time to watch such great talent like that! So far you're the best soap making videos I ever watched ❤️, you're so talented, it's so beautiful!! Really amazing ❤️, thanks for sharing Lisa😊👍
I love this tutorial, I to am planning to make an oat soap! It’s still Christmas Day here in western Canada! I absolutely love your videos! They are so informative!
Hi Lillian I'm so pleased you enjoyed it, it's so lovely to know that people like watching my videos . I hope you and your family have a lovely Christmas too.
Thank you for this video Lisa. I have to say I have been making Oat Milk soaps for a long time, but the quicker way (not as concentrated as you did it). Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Son hermosos tus jabones quedé feliz de ver tu video y sobre todo que lo pude leer en español. Cuanta por ciento de azúcar y agua para tenerla en la nevera y cuantos gr. Se añade en la lejía. Gracias ojalá un día pueda tener esos moldes dé incrustaciones hermosos. Me enamoré de tus jabones, gracias
Love this soap, the shapes are perfect, you can tell exactly what they are! And what a great video, I always learn something new from you. Happy holidays!
Love this, I’d never heard of oat milk and I didn’t like when I tried using soy milk, another great video and uploading on Xmas day is great. Merry Christmas and congratulations on your recent win xxx
Beautiful soap making video. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. Just a question. I had read that sugar gears it the lye ay causes tracing faster. You said it slowly down tracing. Could you please clarify my confusion. Thanks
Happy Christmas, or Happy Boxing Day, as it’s not Christmas anymore in the UK as I write this. 😁 another smashing video from you, thank you for sharing with us! I do so look forward to your videos, and I’m going to use your scent test technique for some new fragrance oils, and then leap out of my comfort zone with a lollipop swirl soap. Wish me luck!! I’ll have your videos guiding me every step! 🤞🥰
Thanks for the great tip on water discount minimum to dissolve lye (1:1). Some how I think I read that somewhere yet when listening to you while watching your video seemed to have made that very pertinent knowledge stick for me. Lovely soap ❣️Merry Christmas ~Ann
Another perfect soap Lisa. I particularly love your milk bottle. That black gold will be perfect for pumpkins next year. Absolutely brilliant idea for suspending your embeds because you are absolutely right about getting slight differences when pouring layers of the same colour.
Thanks Karen, ooh the black gold id one of my favourites, and it's mad isn't it, even if you pour from the same soap you've mixed up all together you can still tend to get a slight difference.
Love watching your soapmaking videos!! This came out so nice, and I really like that you stamped them too :) hope you're having a lovely holiday season~
Hi, I just loved how you give tips and especially about the scorching of oat milk, which makes sense if you use lye. My question is what oils did you use for this recipe since I know different oils play a key role in the ratio of lye etc. I'm new to cold process soap, you see. My first attempt didn't come out well but it's ok. Thanking you in advance.
Thanks so much Christina, unfortunately I don't share my recipe publicly as I spent a long time developing it and then had to pay to have it certified. I've trypically found that when recipes are just given away people never really try to learn what makes a good recipe and what doesn't and never pick up those very important skill. Try to start with a recipe about 40% hard oils and 60% liquid oils, think about what you want your soap to do, if you want slow moving you'll need more liquid oils and to use hard oils like lard, if you want bubbles to last you'll need to add castor oil, if you want a more creamy conditioning soap add some butters like shea or cocoa butter.
Lisa these are adorable. I haven’t tried oat milk before so going to have a go. I think I may apply for a oat variant on my CP assessment as it isn’t on mine. Merry Christmas 🎄
Well the good news is by the end of January (where you live) you would of gained a few minutes short of an hour of sun in the afternoon. 😄 I know how to make soap HP is my favorite but I need to up my game. I’m still relatively new and I’ve made mistakes. My problem is I want to add so much stuff and try all the techniques all in one batch of soap. Thank you
Lisa you are brilliant! I learned a few new tid bits from your video. Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring us. The trick for floating the embeds is genius. Why didn’t I think of that, hahaha. In your opinion, do you think adding a simple syrup to the liquid oils gives the same bubble effect as adding simple syrup to the lye water? I usually add my ss to the liquid oils only because I master batch my lye water and want to keep it cool. I didn’t realize that ss added to the lye water contributes to longer fluidity. Good to know!
Hi Jannalynn I think the sugar/syrup works the same no matter where you put it, it doesn't get affected by the lye, lye only affects fats. I just masterbatch my lye with it in and it's perfectly fine.
So excited I discovered your channel! I got in to soap making because of TH-cam and your videos are perfection! You have a real talent. Thank you for sharing sooo many helpful tips! What is this song in this video and some of your others? It’s such a beautiful song. Thanks!
I have a question on the tubing and the star shapes what are they made of to not melt in the oven. Oh, I really need to look up jell phase and how long is that process and what dies it look like. As you can tell I’m new ❤
Any of the embeds I make are made from cold process soap, so they won't melt, where as melt and pour embeds will. The embed moulds are made from silicone, so they won't melt either. Bear in mind when you put things in the oven you are not cooking them, you are putting the oven at it's lowest temperature, so that it's just a little bit warm then you turn it off when the soap goes in. Sitting your soap in a box covered with towels will do the same thing.
Beautiful soaps . Love your creations. I'm from the UK . Please can you tell me where you got the fragrance oil from. I couldn't quite catch it on the video x
Hey Lisa just made an oat milk soap using this technique ,and must tell u it's come out so well . Only problem was I had used yellow Brazilian clay for colouring , and I think it really accelerated the trace. Want to try again with Iron oxide. Whats your opinion?
Clays can accelerate your trace a bit, you can use oxide, I tend to find you need to be careful with them as the can create a coloured foam and mark a wash cloth when the soap's used.
Hi, I always have my oils at lye at a certain temperature before I start soaping (between 80-90F) so I check them before I start, therefore no need just before I add the milk
Hi Lisa, thank you for the great work you do with the soaps and the videos. I have a question, do you notify your soaps on the European Site, well did you do it before Brexit?
Thanks so much. For soap we are not allowed to say any ingredients have any benefits, and in fact most don't as the saponification process destroys them, so when you hear people talking about the benefits of an ingredient it's almost certainly not going to be there in the soap. So we can use things like milk to make a more luxurious creamy bar, that will have a creamy lather.
Hi there, I’m new to soap making and really like your videos. They’re both great and informative. I’ve tried making oat soap and it traced really quickly. What temperature is best for soap making with oat milk. Kind regards
Lovely soap as always, Lisa! You always have something new to teach me, regardless of how many videos I watch! 😁 I have a question ... How do you calculate the amount of batter required for the soap surrounding the embeds??? Thanks!
Thanks so much Jan. I know the amount of soap I normally need (oil weight) for the whole mould. Then I trim the embeds to their correct size and weigh them. As they are soap (not just oil) I then multiply them by my oil %. So for me 72% of my recipe is oil. and that tells me how much oil is used in the embed. Take that away from the normal oils for a whole loaf and that will leave you with what you need. Hope that makes sense.
There are subtitles in Korean so it was easy to understand. Thank you. ! One question is, why didn't you add 100% oat milk instead of water, like in your beer soap video?
I'm so pleased the subtitles help. Of course you can add 100% and do it just like the beer soap, I was just trying to show 2 different methods for using things other than water in your soap, this is easier than dealing with freezing the liquid and then sprinkling on the lye. But yes you can do that for this too.
Guten Tag hir ist Lydia aus Deutschland sie machen ganz tolle Seifen ich kucke gerne alle Videos. Ich habe eine frage Wo haben sie die Silikon Formen für dise Seife gekauft oder bestelt ?? We're es möglich das sie das feraten?? Dankeschön dafür und bleiben sie Gesund ☺☺☺
Very good. I don't recall ever seeing you use sugar before. Are you adding it only because of the oat milk? And can I assume you make your own stamps with a 3D printer?
Hi Michael. I use sugar in all of my soaps, I just don't often mention it as typically I don't go through how I make up my lye solution each time (as I usually have it masterbatched) but in this one I needed a different concentration so made some up.
Hi Lisa, first off, I love your videos! Second, I'm absolutely convinced that in one of your videos, you made white soap without using TD. You used some other oil in place of olive oil, and it wasn't tallow (which is the suggestion I found on google). Am I imagining things? What was that oil? :D
@@IDreamInSoap thank so much for replying! I did try researching a bit more and found that canola can replace olive oil up to 40%, so I tried that, and it really did come out a lovely creamy white. I love your content so much, thanks again! you're brilliant.
hello Lisa,what ratio do you do both your titanium dioxide and the black charcoal please? i do have trouble getting a nice TD like you have. And i hope you will continue to do ytbubes now that you will be helping Amy? you will be of immense help to her which will benefit the Challengers
Hi Chaya. I Mix my TD and AC at a rate of 1tsp TD to 3tsp of oil. I use both at a rate of 1 teaspoon per pound of oils, so when that's diluted it will be 1 tablespoon. I fully intend on keeping up with my videos, I have been helping Amy with the challenge club all last year it's just this year we decided to get some more people involved too so that we can offer even more help and support
Oh yes you certainly can put them in, be careful with chunks though, any larger pieces of anything that are unsaponified can easily mould and ruin your soap
Your cleverness never ceases to amaze me! I love your videos, they are so informative.
AW, thank you so much. I'm so pleased you like my videos
Your embeds are nothing short of amazing, and the music you picked for this video was both beautiful, while at the same time had a "haunting" quality to it - soul stirring. I absolutely loved this video!

Beautiful soaps . Love your creations. I'm from the UK . Please can you tell me where you got the fragrance oil from. I couldn't quite catch it on the video x
Hi Martha I used Honeywash from Gracefruit in this soap
Hey Lisa just made an oat milk soap using this technique ,and must tell u it's come out so well . Only problem was
I had used yellow Brazilian clay for colouring , and I think it really accelerated the trace.
Want to try again with Iron oxide. Whats your opinion?
Clays can accelerate your trace a bit, you can use oxide, I tend to find you need to be careful with them as the can create a coloured foam and mark a wash cloth when the soap's used.
@@IDreamInSoap what should be the measure for the oxides,I mean what proportion of oil
You are teaching excellent. But only one question. Why you didn't check the temperature before adding the oat milk?
Hi, I always have my oils at lye at a certain temperature before I start soaping (between 80-90F) so I check them before I start, therefore no need just before I add the milk
Hi Lisa, thank you for the great work you do with the soaps and the videos. I have a question, do you notify your soaps on the European Site, well did you do it before Brexit?
Thanks a lot, yes I uploaded to the EU portal up until the End of December 2020, I have now moved onto the UK portal
Beautiful soap as always. Could you tell me what artist is singing on your video. She's amazing. Thank you.
Thank you so much, yes the song is Way Way back by Lvly
@@IDreamInSoap thank you so much ❤️
I love it!❤️
oat milk added to trace at what temperature is it? Thank you!
HI Daniela, mine was about 80F, as I like to keep everything about the same temperature
These are very cute. What is the benefit of the oat milk?
I love that you sell the moulds you make.
Thanks so much. For soap we are not allowed to say any ingredients have any benefits, and in fact most don't as the saponification process destroys them, so when you hear people talking about the benefits of an ingredient it's almost certainly not going to be there in the soap. So we can use things like milk to make a more luxurious creamy bar, that will have a creamy lather.
Hi there, I’m new to soap making and really like your videos. They’re both great and informative. I’ve tried making oat soap and it traced really quickly. What temperature is best for soap making with oat milk.
Kind regards
I always soap between 80 and 90F
Adorable!
Thank you so much
Stunning 💞
That's so kind of you to say Susann, thank you so much 😊
May I ask how much sugar syrup did you add to the water
Lovely soap as always, Lisa! You always have something new to teach me, regardless of how many videos I watch! 😁
I have a question ... How do you calculate the amount of batter required for the soap surrounding the embeds??? Thanks!
Thanks so much Jan. I know the amount of soap I normally need (oil weight) for the whole mould. Then I trim the embeds to their correct size and weigh them. As they are soap (not just oil) I then multiply them by my oil %. So for me 72% of my recipe is oil. and that tells me how much oil is used in the embed. Take that away from the normal oils for a whole loaf and that will leave you with what you need. Hope that makes sense.
@@IDreamInSoap Thank you so much, Lisa! I can follow that! 😁❤
رائعة
شكرا جزيلا
There are subtitles in Korean so it was easy to understand. Thank you. !
One question is, why didn't you add 100% oat milk instead of water, like in your beer soap video?
I'm so pleased the subtitles help. Of course you can add 100% and do it just like the beer soap, I was just trying to show 2 different methods for using things other than water in your soap, this is easier than dealing with freezing the liquid and then sprinkling on the lye. But yes you can do that for this too.
Can I use coconut milk in place of the water please
Absolutely, just do it in the same way, it will be lovely

Ok ich bedanke mich von Hertzen wünsche allen alles gute und bleibt alle Gesund !!!
Donde adquiere las micas?
Siempre digo de dónde los obtengo en los videos, ¿tienes los subtítulos? Eso debería ayudarte a ver las empresas que uso.
I love it
Thank you so much Tracey Kilgore, that's very kind of you.
Very good. I don't recall ever seeing you use sugar before. Are you adding it only because of the oat milk? And can I assume you make your own stamps with a 3D printer?
Hi Michael. I use sugar in all of my soaps, I just don't often mention it as typically I don't go through how I make up my lye solution each time (as I usually have it masterbatched) but in this one I needed a different concentration so made some up.
OOh and sorry, yes, I make the stamps with my 3D printer
Hi Lisa, first off, I love your videos!
Second, I'm absolutely convinced that in one of your videos, you made white soap without using TD. You used some other oil in place of olive oil, and it wasn't tallow (which is the suggestion I found on google). Am I imagining things? What was that oil? :D
My soap batter does go very white. I do always use olive oil, but it's the one that they call 'light in colour' olive oil
@@IDreamInSoap thank so much for replying! I did try researching a bit more and found that canola can replace olive oil up to 40%, so I tried that, and it really did come out a lovely creamy white. I love your content so much, thanks again! you're brilliant.
Love your videos and creativity. Also LOVE the song. What song is it?
Thank you so much, ooh the song, it's beautiful isn't it. I use it a lot in my videos. It's called Way Way back by Lvly
@@IDreamInSoap i just found you through a Facebook group and just love your videos!
What oils you have used pls say
Hi I use Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Avocado Oil, Rice Bran Oil, Castor oil and Olive oil
hello Lisa,what ratio do you do both your titanium dioxide and the black charcoal please? i do have trouble getting a nice TD like you have. And i hope you will continue to do ytbubes now that you will be helping Amy? you will be of immense help to her which will benefit the Challengers
Hi Chaya. I Mix my TD and AC at a rate of 1tsp TD to 3tsp of oil. I use both at a rate of 1 teaspoon per pound of oils, so when that's diluted it will be 1 tablespoon.
I fully intend on keeping up with my videos, I have been helping Amy with the challenge club all last year it's just this year we decided to get some more people involved too so that we can offer even more help and support
I actually like the big chunks of oats tho it feels nice on the skin
Oh yes you certainly can put them in, be careful with chunks though, any larger pieces of anything that are unsaponified can easily mould and ruin your soap
@@IDreamInSoap yea I don't use that much oats in a loaf I use 2oz for a 30 oz batch if soap
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much
Ils very very nice tank y for sharing
