Oooh can't wait to see what you come up with! 🤩

Thank you 😊💛

Aww, Paula! Thank you 😊

Thank you Mrs! 💛

Awww thank you Ms A! You are so sweet 😚💛

Thank you. It's a lovely soap to use. Beautifully bubbly and silky smooth. And it smells delicious 😋

Fantastic! You must tag me where ever you share it so I can see 🤩💛

Thank you 😊

Ahh, thank you! I need to make more, they were sooooo popular! Oooh please send me a pic over on my Instagram! It would be great to see how yours came out 😃🤩 🍌

@@SoPea Hey Girl, Mine is Black. ACTIVATED CHARCOAL! I don't have Instagram right now but my TikTok. I went back to making Basic Soap (out of curiosity.... I have become so accustomed to making Salt Bars and cutting it within 4 hours that I have to go back into my dusty recipe catalog! I LOVE SALT BARS!

Thank you P2P 😊

Thank you Susan 💛

It really does. It's delicious 😋

Aww, thank you Suzi, I've been trying to get better at it. My next task is to work out how to turn the auto focus off so its stops wobbling in and out of focus. I have a few more videos recorded and will get those up ASAP too. 😊 💛

It's absolutely beautiful! So creamy, silky and bubbly. I'll see if I can pop a short up soon 😊

Thank you, My working assumption is once all the ingredients have gone through saponification the Lye will have killed off anything that could allow bacteria or mould to grow within the bar and the environment and nature of soap itself is a hostile place for mould and bacteria to grow and we use soap to clean off bacteria from our hands bodies and surfaces. I've made soap with fresh Ingredients before and still have bars of it years later and not a whiff of anything going wonky 💛

It's Banana by Fresh Skin Beauty. It's got just the right balance of foam banana sweets to the real fresh scent of banana. I only added a small amount in as I wanted the real banana scent to shine through the bars. So it was added as a little back up really 😅 but they do smell delicious 😊

Hey! Thank you for your lovely comment! 💛 It actually didn't darken! I was so surprised. I have a few bars left and the scent is just so amazing and the colour is just the same as the picture 😊

Well, that is great news! After watching this, I want to make banana soap! You did an excellent job with your choice of colors and technique, so congratulations. @@SoPea

Oh that's exciting! Please find me on Instagram or Facebook and tag me! I would love to see how yours comes out when you make it 😃😃

@@SoPea I made a small test batch and it turned out lovely. I am so pleased and will make a normal sized batch next time. Also found a terrific banana FO from NG. Thank you again for your video and inspiration.

@@Marie-4Him oh fantastic! I'm so glad you tried it and it all worked out! Did you find me over on Instagram? I would love to see how it turned out! Oooh yes the NG Banana FO is amazing something like True Banana or Real Banana. I have that in my FO Haul 💛💛

I did do a water discount for the weight of the bananas yes. But I don't think you need to as its a thick pure when it goes in. I did it more for the volume of my mould.

From my understanding it's Indefinite as the nature and pH of the soap doesn't allow bacteria or mould to grow. And the process of adding lye to the ingredients including the fresh foodie type ingredients kills off anything that could have already been lingering in the fresh food. The trick is to ensure its fully blended to a Smoothie consistency and strain out any lumps.because of there are full lumps of in this case banana that don't get touched by the Lye, then those spots will likely become rancid. So preparation and straining out lumps is very important to ensure a long lasting bar 💛

Thank you for the suggestion. I will consider this for future videos. I have chosen the white as its part of my branding. But maybe I could also add a shadow around it to make the words pop a bit more. I unfortunately don't give away my recipe as this has taken me years to develop. My videos are more to showcase what I've made rather than a teaching source. There are some great channels out there though that do give their recipes freely. I would highly recommend Soap & Clay. Thank you for taking the time to watch my video, it really does help be build the channel. I have loads of videos to upload very soon too so be sure to subscribe and click the 🔔 💛

Thank you for your comment, it's something I'll think about changing in the future. I chose white for a few reasons, I have it to match my brand colours and any other colour i tried looked worse than the white to read. I don't usually put text in, it's just something I've given a go to show what I'm doing. Also majority of the soap videos i watch from other makers use white text so it felt right. But apologies if it wasn't comfortable for you.

Thank you 😊 💛
