What a great kit for someone who wants to give soapmaking a try! They would spend more than that to get everything they need separately, so yeah, what a great idea! And you make it look like so much fun! I bet Makesy is going to sell a lot of kits after this video :)

The 50/50 lye solution from makesy is what I use in my soap making I don’t mess with lye I don’t even care to pay the extra money 😂 I’ve used their formula and let me tell you very very good for someone looking to begin their soap journey. Also all my molds are from them 🤪

Oh my! Shut up and take my money!❤ I'm a beginner, meaning never made except melt and pour. Lol. I'm a new subscriber, and I truly enjoy watching your videos! You've inspired me to start soap making! Thank you, Ellen!

Wow, that kit is no joke. I would have happily paid full price for it a couple months ago when I started making soap. I didn’t get near as many items in the soap making kit I bought on Amazon. I love that the kit comes with a scale and stick blender and PPE… Anyone who buys it will be a very happy soap maker, for sure.

wow ....beautiful soap Ellen.. Id be SUPER HAPPY with that Kit...Great Demo Thankyou

This looks fun. This is the most extensive kit I have ever seen.

I really enjoyed this. I have most everything I need for now but this is a wonderful way to get started. Takes all the fear and guesswork out of getting started. I would like to make my own 50/50 lye to use with my own recipes. Would you or any of your wonderful viewers out there point me in the right direction? I appreciate any comments. Thank you for a very fun video🌹who knows- I may just get the kit anyway and give my current stuff to somebody wanting to start out.😊

Thanks for the answer about tallow Ellen.

You look so beautiful today 💛 so cozy ✨️ 💕 have a fantastic day. And I love your random giggles 🥰 it makes me laugh it's cute 😆🥰

I'm impressed! That is the best CP soapmaking I've seen yet.

Its great! I would also have included a small notebook for note taking to keep track of any adjustments or additions made 🎉

Ellen I have been wanting to learn how to make my own lotions and butters. I looked on KZfaq and found your videos. I just love them. After watching some of your lotion videos I checked out your soap videos and they really inspired me to try making some. I watched this video and ended up purchasing the kit today. Even though it’s a little intimidating, I can’t wait to try it . Thank you for sharing your talent.

I just LOVE the way she presented it! So thorough, so detailed, nice work, nice video!

That mold looks incredible ❤

Beautiful soap! Ty

Thank you Ellen!!! I’ve been making soap for a few years, but was as excited as you seeing this kit! I ordered it. So glad you made this video; the soap is lovely 🥰

Wow this is an awesome kit. I love it.

I love how they packed everything.

I've watched several of your videos and your love for your craft exudes through the screen. Thank you!

could you PLEASE PLEASE PLEEEEAASSEEEE make a video on how you would calcite and price your products? I only ask because you're just so articulate and detailed so I know your breakdown and explanation would be received by anyone and everyone wondering how to price their own individual business products too!

Thanks for reviewing this. I have ordered fragrance oils and other items from Makesy in the past and have never been disappointed.

Wow😮

You are so right, this is a great starter kit and I wish I'd had it when I started six years ago.

I agree. This saves alot of preparing to making soap. I wish they had this when first started making soap. It sound's likè a value, too.I

🎉Great🎉

Love it 💞🌻 Wish to have one👌perfect for beginner's soap maker😊

Great video- just got my kit! Used code Thank you!!!!

I so enjoy your enthusiasm. You are so sweet. Btw I ordered one 😊

Nice! (I think the whole jug of oil should be warmed & shaken, to melt and mix the ingredients.)

Omg how perfect! I’m definitely buying this kit once I’m ready to start!

I could listen to you all day. Your enthusiasm is contagious! You have made me want to order one of these kits too. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge. ❤

Heck yeah ❤ I so would have bought this when I first started making soap very nice molds and they really did think of everything good deal

Great video as usual! Ty

You are a joy to watch and a great teacher. I pray God continues to bless you. Thank you so much for the information. When I get good and going I will be sure to shout you out on my page and I will send you a sampler box! God bless and keep soaping on!

Wow 👍 that was awesome! Yeah I wish I had that on my first time too about 30 years ago!! 😊 But, thanks for the demo 👍 It still looked very fun & I might get it too😅

Wow! What an amazing kit it has everything in it to start soap making,I could not believe what you were taking out of the box ,such a great idea for someone who is starting soap making and so much fun as well.Thank you Ellen for sharing😊xx

Very nice kit and great work as always. The only thing they forgot to add was the digital thermometer, but still a great

This is beautiful!! You are so nice and enjoyable to watch - Thank you 🧼❤

That kit is impressive. Wow!

Oh ya, I need this in my life!!

You have done it again with this video! I browsed all thru their site and have decided to buy their candle money making kit! The kit comes with everything that I will need. I make CP soap already so o figured instead of buying all items peerage like I did for the soap I’m going to buy the full kit!! Thank you again for another OUTSTANDING video 🎉

Fabulous video you made it look so easy! Thanks Ellen ❤

Thank you Ellen for all you do for all us. After years of watching you and others, I have finally decided to try my hand at hand at make CP soap. Once I master it, I'll add it to my line of products which started with wax melts then candles then grew 😅🤣

I ordered the kit! I can’t wait to try it out! I love the mold! I am so excited you found this! I’ve used bramble berry only so I’m looking forward to something new! I’ve learned so much from you and I’ve started my business called Mama B’s Homemade and I’m in Kentucky! Thank you for being a great teacher!

So much fun watching this 😊

They are beautiful! I do a 48% discount. I also add 4 Oz of a vegetable or fruit purée sometimes I’ll add 3 ounces of coconut milk or powdered goats milk. I did get aloe Vera juice. I’m freezing it into cubes then I’m going to use that for my lye solution. I’ve done a 50/50 lye solution before. It turned out awesome. I didn’t know that u can buy lye premixed. That makes it so much easier n safer. I’ve been making soap for 7 years n I had no idea u can get lye like that. Thk u! 🖤

WOW😍 This kit is awesome. So bomb. It comes with everything you could possibly need. I will gladly buy this kit. It would be way more buying each individual thing separately. This is a steal. The soap came out pretty as usual.

Love this, one stop shop! Wish I knew about this when I started making CP. You are an inspiration Ellen! Enjoy ALL your videos! ❤

Hi! Thank you for sharing and demoing this kit!

Thank you for the discount code. I love your videos. You are inspiring. Ordered my kit now the wait. Excited.

WOW! This is a fantastic beginner kit!! I wish something like this was around back in 2013 when I first started. I think those gloves are perfect for people who haven’t messed with lye before. (Love your giggle🫶🏻😉)

Hello Ellen a wonderful class thank you again. Kathy from Cali😎

This is a amazing kit. Wow .. I'm going to look into this company 🥰🥰

This is amazing!!! Thank you for sharing

Oh, how pretty that soap turned out to be! 👏💖 I guess it would be considered a brine bar? Or was that not quite enough salt? I think kits are a great way to learn. I began with a comprehensive kit from Bramble Berry more than 5 years ago, and still use many parts of it. I don't know if they still sell such an all-inclusive kit anymore, but it certainly made my first attempt simple and successful! I'm impressed with that lye solution that Makesy included - how easy and quick that makes mixing lye for a beginner! And their packaging and branding are gorgeous. Thanks for the demo! 🙏

That is a great kit and so well put together! I can’t wait for you to make the lavender sage. I made for the first time per customer request and I am in love with the fragrance. It’s a winner for me.

wonderful video tyvm. very well explained great product. with i had money to buy that stuff.

thank you so much for this video. I was contemplating getting this box, Great video!

This is an awesome kit!

It turned out beautifully

Lovely Kit Ellen. So you would be okay about soapmaking without a digital thermometer? Kinda fundamental don’t you think? So an extra piece of equipment people will need to buy to support their process. I would have to myself. Temperature checks are vital. And the Trinity Blend? - 33% Coconut Oil, 33% RS Palm Oil & 34% Olive Oil? If so, a nice hard, bubbly & creamy soap bar from easily accessed oils that are not too expensive. This kit is a great teacher in the wisdom of master batching oils & lye - for that reason I love it! xx

Ty for sharing it’s a great kit, I loved the purple mica, just loved it. Did you missed the tall and skinny, lol I love the tall and skinny soaps. So beautiful.

Love this kit. I made soap in the 90’s it was a lot more difficult to find supplies. The internet was just getting started so it really wasn’t a help.

Omg the money I could have saved if I knew about this kit two years ago. Oh well I wouldn’t have made my first bar. It was a goat milk and oil bar. 🎉💃🏾

Amei. E com tradução ainda melhor❤

Wow what a fantastic kit!! ❤❤ I’d buy it if it didn’t contain palm oil 😢 I won’t use it under any circumstances, gorgeous soap!

I definitely need the goggles. My safety glasses fog up because I wear a mask during the measuring of the lye. I now wear one pair safety glasses during the measuring of the lye and then I switch to a different pair once the measurement is done, so I can see.

Ellen. This was fun. My sons are both interested in soaping. I may buy each of them a kit! Thanks for sharing the discount code. I do have a question. It looked like you reused the lye container for your color blend

Maybe that salt was meant for both soaps they provided for? Maybe .5 oz would have made it less crumbly. It's a great deal. I'm surprised BrambleBerry has never done the whole shebang...other than the oils premixed. I was looking at that 50/50 lye like 'uhmmmm'. LOL. I've seen Makesy on here and looked at their site and wondered about them. They are newish to me. I'll have been soaping for a decade next month. Wish something like this had been around in 2013! Have a great day :)

Dear Ellen, what a beautiful kit! I would love to have the Makesy immersion blender! To cut the soap, would it be worth putting alcohol on the cutter so that it doesn't stick so much to the soap loaf? A hug from Guatemala!

Thanks for sharing I am just starting on my journey for soap making I really enjoyed watching your unboxing but I don't know how to find the code for the Makesy supplies discount

Very informative! In the video you said that tilt pour was not going to work. Why is that?

Hi Ellen, what do you do with your soap scrap? I'm thinking to purchase the beginners cold kit, it's a little pricey but it looks easy, and I love the way they turned out.

Thank you for the demo. I bought the kit and wanted to see it done before I tried. Where did you get your thermometer? Could you attach a link?

So I have one question for clarification When you split the batter for the coloring can you you the same container that you used for the 50/50 lye solution or do I need a clean container. I’ve truly enjoy following you and you are a wealth of information for me who is fairly new to soap making. Thank you so much for care in what you bring to your videos.

Ellen, I don’t know if I am missing it or if the link to the book isn’t in the description. I received my kit and I’m excited to get started but I don’t have any instructions 😂 Can you please post the link to the instruction book? Thank you 😊

So...aren't the hash marks on the wooden mold intended to use as a ruler?

I’m a beginner soap Maker can I use my own essential oil? Also I want to add activated charcoal am I able to?

the 50/50 lye doesn't need to be warm up ?

Question, how do you clean up your tools after making soap?

How would I add powdered goats milk to this? New soap maker here.

Ellen, i would like to know what's the name of the tallow you used.

Hello mam advice me how to get long lasting CP Soap. Chakravarty from INDIA.

Omggggg Ruth!!! Is this available for purchase??

Do you know if they make the trinity oils without coconut oil. My kiddo is allergic to that oil and i would like to make soaps that she can use . If not do you know anyone has those types of pre made oils I am doing a lot of heavy research right now just wanting some insight from a expert from someone such as yourself I love your videos you inspired me to make soaps and body butters and your joy and love shows in your videos and i hope to meet you one day and work together You are a true representative of doing what you love and being happy ! Thank you so much

Adoro os seus vídeos gostava de saber fazer sabao artesanal como você mas não consigo encontrar os óleo que são usados ,tenho muito creme hidratante em casa ,sera que substitui algum óleo será que dá para utilizar obrigado

That looks like a fabulous idea but probably not realistic for us to buy into Australia. Thanks for showing us though.

Mam, I am from India How can I get this beginners soap making kits?

🎉❤

What is the discount code

Needs a thermometer 🥰🥰

Everything in the box - except the thermometer...

This is a good beginners kit with a few concerns, too much plastic packaging in the kit, makesy need to address this, then the ongoing cost of pre-mixed lye and oils is very expensive, eg 2lb oil $19.95, 1.5lb of lye $12.95, you can purchase the oils and lye flakes much cheaper, and simply mix them together, it's not hard, it's just a 33% palm, olive,coconut mix, and 50/50 lye/water, you are definitely paying for the convenience, sadly makesy are very good at fancy marketing, I'm a bit sad to see Ellen promoting this kit, she is very environmentally conscious, this kit is unfortunately not, with so much plastic to deliver small quantities of initial an ongoing ingredients, saying that the kit is great for beginners to introduce them to soap making, it would be better of makesy to make it a bit more environmentally friendly

Sorry Ellen, but I am really disappointed that as an experienced and regarded soap maker you obviously allowed your sponsorship and commissions to interfere with providing a honest review of this kit. I would have pointed out that while it is certainly true that the soap is "safe" to use and sell in two days, that it is because the saponification process is complete and there is no active Sodium Hydroxide present. You know as well as I do that soap needs to cure a minimum of four to six weeks...not just for water evaporation to produce a longer lasting bar of soap, but also for the crystalline structure to form to produce a gentler bar of soap. Fresh soap may be 'safe', but it is also harsh on the skin. You said repeatedly that you were going to follow the instructions as if you were a new soap maker which you did and didn't do. You sort of did when you dumped in all the salt and clay since the instructions didn't provide any measurements (as you noted), but at the same time, this kit is supposed to make two batches of soap so you should have only used half. You didn't when you noted that floral fragrances oils tend to accelerate, so you deviated from the instructions and didn't add the FO until after you separated the batter. Had you followed the instructions you would have added it as directed, you would have been plopping that batter into the mold. And you didn't when you turned the soap on its side before you cut it because you know about drag marks. Now I don't object to soap kits...it's how I got started, but I purchased mine from a reputable soap supplier which is what I recommend. On it's face it not a bad kit...you get everything but Distilled Water, but I think it's a lot of money to spend on something you're not sure that you will enjoy. I personally don't like "blends" as you are stuck with them; you know what oils/butters are in them, but not how much. The 'trinity' isn't bad since you can assume that it is generally 34% Olive Oil, 33% Coconut Oil and 33% Palm Oil. But if a 'blend' contains multi oils and/or butters, you're going to be using a lot of trial and error (and ingredients) trying to replicate it. If you are only a hobbiest...a blend is probably the best way to go, but if you plan to sell soap, it will get really expensive really fact. And I have issues with any company that sells a blend or kit an doesn't have the individual components available.
