Just a little FYI that works for me is to mix my mica in a shot glass with a couple sprays of alcohol and it mixes very well and the alcohol will disapate and it mixes in with your melted soap amazingly. No clumps or loose powder that wont mix in it works great. Give it a try.

thanks!!!! you just helped me a lot ! i’m trying to start a soap business and this was very helpful

I tried this and it was awesome..I did a red top and candy cane fragrance so I didn't copy you fully. Just did the technique and I am so happy. I enjoy watching and learning from you tutorials. Thank you so much

I loved the way the soap turned out. I learned quite a bit about layering melt and pour soap from watching this video, thank you!

this may sound weird but i loved this video! even the family interactions in the back, felt very natural. thank u for your tips

Thanks for sharing the video on making the lovely multi-layered soap. Really nice color 🎉

My favorite color is the RED taillights as they leave my driveway at Christmas.

Thanks. I’m a beginning soap maker with melt and pour soap.

I ran across this video again. Looks like I already made a comment. So I'll just explain. The reason why wire will break cutting melt and pour is because wire has a rough texture that creates friction. The friction will become greater than the strength of the wire and could break it. To over come that many use a thicker wire. Me personally I went the other route. A thinner "wire" that is smooth to create less friction will not break. In fact, what I use is not wire at all. Its 30lb (anything less will not work) fishing line which is very smooth and it doesn't leave any stretch marks on the soap. Just thought I'd put my two cents worth in. Its never broke and if it does I have an entire roll that will last the rest of my life. If anyone would like to make their own, check out my vids (I don't make any money off ads) and you can see how I did it to come up with your own version. Additionally, the cutter used here is very nice though so not take take away from any ones hard work.

🎄🎄Just so creative and adorable!! I love that fragrance and the holiday designs are so beautiful!! I use my colors ya and mix them in a tiny bit of alcohol first then pour it into my melt and pour. I seen it a while back and tried it and I believe it makes it easier to incorporate! This turned out so beautifully and such cuteness!

23:46 fantastic!!

Kind of reminds me of a Mardi Gras themed soap!

Thank you for the great video especially how to pour second layer watching on March 12 2022 !!! Hugs from California 😘💕

Thank you for sharing your technique.

I’m loving that Sierra Nevada brewery hoodie, my company helped with building the new brewery in Asheville

That’s so beautiful.

Thanks dear you are a very good teacher

I love silver, purple, and blue for the holiday. Scents are pine and berries

Yesss purple is my favorite color. This soap is going to be gorgeous

First of all i love the soap and you are so detailed in the video

I just seek this. I'm trying to make soap and I've definitely messed up then because I didnt know if it was bubbling or smoking that it's no good. Lol so thank you !!

So pretty! I really love the colors you chose

Thanks so much

Omg so satisfying

Beautiful work thank you for sharing ❤

I just wanted to let you know that you can make it an entire slab and not have to use two or three different molds. Then you can use a log splitter. The log splitter has to be designed a certain way though. But yes log splitters will cut melt n pour if the design is changed.

Very beautiful soap, love your table cloth too, very cool.👌🧼

Beautiful

Nice Sierra Nevada sweatshirt! Chico alum here :)

Love the colors. Turned out very pretty.

It's beautiful. Great job 👍

Use a small cup add about 1/2 teaspoon of alcohol to it then add mica and mix it and pour into soap base. I assume these will be given to family and friends since you didn’t use gloves while touching these bars.

Lovely and inspiring too !!

This is so cool!!!!

How do you get the layers to not separate after cutting? I'll have like 1 bar when I swirl that will separate from the other color... like snap off.

Thank you so so very much!!!👠👠👠

Gorgeous!

New Subscriber, learned alot...

Gorgeous!!! Thank you so much for the very educational video. I’m hooked. Just absolutely beautiful. 💕🙏🏻☀️🌈🌏♥️🌍👍✌🏻

Great video. Thanks 🙏🏾

Beautiful soap!!

Great job I enjoyed this so much thank you.

Great teacher thanks again 😍

You are so awesome!!!! Thank You!!! You made it so simple!!!

as a beginner melt and pour soap bars, i made some earlier this week and as soon as i took it out of the microwave it started to set, but managed to get it melted and add the color/fragrance into the mold.. turned out well but im still trying to figure out the time measurements

this is lovely

This really helps

Did you only add fragrance to the first two layers only?

Have you tried the vanilla color stabilizer? I have great luck with it in my M&P soaps.

That looks just like my cutter, but I'm not sure if it's for melt and pour too; probably need a thicker wire.

Your pours are mesmerizing! I was into it, I was so happy when I seen the purple layer 😍 Off topic, your skin is gorgeous! Wow! Your facial skin is luminous. The first layer I bounced my eyes back and forth the soap and your skin. 😍

Amazing

Hello ! How long did you wait before pouring each layer ?

Nice soap is there a way you could do Green, Red, Silver and Gold with Pine Scent maybe in beds White? Just wondering.

Can you do a melt and pour soap with additives like water based extracts and essential oils?

When you cut the first piece of soap and showed it to the camera, I so badly wanted to sniff it 🤭😊 So beautiful!

What r u looking for when u check the soap

Last image is Casey Neistat on the beach filmed with his drone lol

But how long do the soaps need to set before the next layer???

Gotta love the Sierra Nevada sweatshirt.

Hey, I am planning on starting with soap making, and this video has been of great help. I have a few questions, and would be so grateful if you (or anyone) could respond: Have уou tried mica lines between the layers? What if I was to paint something on one layer with mica dispersed in isopropyl alcohol? Will the next layer smudge the picture? How thin can you go with layers? Have you ever tried pouring cold-processed soap over melt and pour or the other way around? Thank you so much!

COOL

Very nice 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

THIS MAY SEEM SILLY BUT CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW THE SOAP BASE IS STAYING LIQUIFIED FOR SO LONG? I'M FAIRLY NEW AT THIS BUT WHENEVER I'M MAKING SOAP, IT COOLS VERY QUICKLY AND I CAN BARELY ADD ANYTHING PRIOR TO POURING BEFORE THAT FILM STARTS DEVELOPING. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? I'VE ALSO SEEN A FEW MELT AND POUR SOAP VIDEOS WHERE SOMETHING WAS ALREADY MIXED IN AND THE SOAP BASE LITERALLY STAYED MELTED UNTIL THE PERSON WAS READY TO POUR IT. SOMETIMES FOR 5 MINUTES OR MORE. HOW IS THAT?

So I made my own soap this past weekend and they turned out beautiful but the natural smell of the soap is more over powering than the fragrance oil. Is there a way to smell more of the fragrance oil then the soap smell? Sure Maybe change soaps? I used honey soap and shea butter soap.

My MP didn’t fall through but separated in half after it cured!??? Why? Did I wait to long to pour my 2nd layer?

This is a lil late but I used Apple Balsam from #Brambleberry for the first time this year and omgurd it’s amazing. It’s xmas in a bottle! It has the pine notes, sweetness from the apple, Jasmine notes... It’s gorgeous 👍 For some reason I can’t get my layers to stick together. I’ve tried everything..I spray with RA, I watch my temperatures... IDK. I do like MP because of how well it holds Fragrance and how it shows off mica colors. I gave up on it though. Lol I only use it for embeds in my CP now. I love this soap... It’s beautiful!

Are your cups microwave safe, also what brand are they?

Love the video! Can you manipulate the top layer like you can in cold process soap? Can you also add extra soap figurines in the layers (for ex. Mermaid tales etc.)? TIA!

How do you keep your soaps from setting so quick? Ours started to get a skin on the top so quickly!!

God bless you very nice ilove it❤️❤️💓💓

I'm going to look for this fragrance that sounds wonderful. But I'm curious. I see you don't wear a glove and I'm wondering if you're leaving fingerprints behind on your soap.

How much fragrance oil did you use per pound?

can you liquid color instead of mica powder thanks

Just found your channel and subscribed. Like how you use ordinary items for making your soap (plastic spoon & fork 😃👍🏼). Love that soap! Please, Please tell me how do you keep your melted soap melted? Mine usually starts to set up and I have to reheat. Thanks.

Do you have a link for the soap cutter?

Hi, is there a difference in cutting a loaf from a cold process and a loaf from a melt and pour? Is the loaf harder after 12 hours than a cold process loaf?

So does every layer have the fragrance or just one or two? and the soap is pretty came out nice. Is the Mica safe for your skin?

Where did you purchase your moulds? Love the size!

Beautiful wear did you get the plastic jars that you can put in the microwave and is that so the same as cocoa butter or Shea butter melt to pour soap I’m thinking it’s better to use the clear soap, then white soap right? Because it don’t looks like you’re rushing to pour your soul. The white soap look like you have to hurry up and pour it. I don’t know I’m just learning.

❤️❤️❤️

Cool! Not sure if I'll do layers when I start getting into the soap making (soon, still researching how to make, what products are available, since I have to buy online, that are not carcinogenic, etc., and just checked and found mica is usually good, some people may have mild reactions). But it's nice to know how so that if I do, I have a video to refer back to. Not sure if I will use mica, as there are other natural options for color that also have their health benefits. I'm really enjoying watching the alcohol remove the bubbles.

Beginner here: so if I have a mold that holds 44oz I’m unsure how much mp soap I need? I thought 2lbs was a lot but now watching this I’m like hmmm I guess ima need more to make a loaf 😅

How much time was it between pouring layers pls

Is there anything I can add to my melt and pour base to make it last longer? I was reading that adding two teaspoons of salt per pound helps the soap last longer. Have you tried it before?

Is that wax, or parchment paper that you used underneath while chopping?

Can we add essential oils and oils such as coconut oil and vegetable glycerine to this base ?

Could you advise me if my soap separates on each layer after drying out 😬😓 would you have any advice? Your video is amazing 👏

For Melting Soap Can I use Aloe Oil Instead Of Aloe Vera

Can u add anything to this soap! Like coconut oil or castor oil????

Can you use goats milk m&p base, of course different colors?

How do you know there a non bleeding colorant. Love the soap

Please tell me the name of the cutter mine is awful and ruining my soap thanks

Should we use the 5lb soap mold

How do you avoid a skin on the soap surface after melting? At 120 degrees or so mine has a skin.

Sodium hydroxide How to mixed

What can i substitute rubbing alcohol with?

Beautiful Soap! Where did you buy your soap cutter?

Hello - and I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Would you mind sharing where you purchased your Soap Cutter? Thanks
