In this video, I show you how to make a 100% natural cold process soap with orange essential oil, including the process of how to hot and cold infuse botanicals to use in cold process soap.
I made two soaps and swirled them in different ways so you will see both techniques and the results for both cuts. Both swirls are based on the 'To comb or not to comb' technique.
This soap will be for sale in my shop www.IDreamInSoap.co.uk as part of my September update.

Disclaimer
Although my cold process soap making tutorials are of a tutorial nature, they are intended for people who have a good understanding of making cold process soap. The information given is based on what works for me, however, there are lots of variables associated with cold process soap making and I therefore, take no responsibility for the results achieved when using the techniques or methods explained in these tutorials. Cold process soap involves the necessary use of sodium Hydroxide (lye) which is a very dangerous substance. Before attempting and cold process soap making you should ensure you are fully aware of the lye safety procedures and always wear the correct safety equipment when making soap.
