That’s not unusual at all, I really appreciate your kind words! 😊 Keeping things neat and tidy helps me stay organized, especially with soap-making. It makes everything flow more smoothly!
Thank you Sylvie for this soapmaking video❤, so is Castor oil the only soft oil you have used in this recipe?? And how do you calculate glycerin amount to be used ?? Thank you once again🙏
Yes, castor oil is the only soft oil in this recipe. It contributes to the soap's conditioning and adds a nice, creamy bubbly lather. The palm and coconut oils are hard oils, which help create a firm, long-lasting bar. There isn’t a strict percentage for adding glycerine, but a typical range is 1-5% of the total oil weight. I used just over 2%, which I find works really well. Once it's fully cured, I'll try to post a short video (hopefully I don't forget lol).
@@beautybooster_diy4848 I asked since this is the first time I am watching a video where glycerin is added in cold process soap bars. So my understanding is that glycerin was added to increase the soap’s conditioning property, am I right??
@@July0907 Yes, you're absolutely right! Glycerine is often added to soap to increase its conditioning and moisturizing properties. It acts as a humectant, which means it helps draw moisture from the air to the skin, making the soap more hydrating. In cold process soap, some glycerine is naturally produced during saponification, but adding a bit extra can enhance the soap’s ability to leave the skin feeling softer and more conditioned. This can be particularly helpful if the soap contains a high amount of cleansing or harder oils like coconut oil, which can sometimes be drying without the balancing effects of humectants like glycerine. So, adding glycerine is a great way to improve the overall skin feel of the soap!
This may sound maybe unusual. But I love how neat you are. It is so satisfying to watch the entire process and things still look clean.
