This soap was inspired by my love of tea, and some dried Jasmine botanicals that I had... Come along while I make some Tea soap. I'm using an "in the pot swirl" or ITPS.
I love to create good for you, handcrafted soaps using the cold process method of soap making.

I love watching this video and wondered if you can use other scented teas to add in cold processing soaps that are made

Oh yes, you could get really creative with different teas and such

Thank you so much for this great video. Did you insulate the soap overnight? I was thinking the soap would heat up and need refrigerating a bit after putting it in the mold because of the tea-lye. I used rooibos tea-lye once and the soap heated up and cracked in the middle. Just wondering how to prevent that when I try to make your recipe. Please advise and thanks!

I did put a lid on the mold, but didn't insulate it. The tea soaps to get really hot. My studio is very cool, so I think that helps.

Crazy! A week before I started watching your videos I made an avocado-coconut milk soap. It looks almost exactly like this soap 😂 We in Germany call this - two idiots, one thought 😂 (please excuse 😁)

What do you put tussah silk in for

@EllenRuthSoap 5 жыл бұрын

It literally gives the lather a "silky" soft feel.😀

@buttermilkbaysoap9416 4 жыл бұрын

Can I ask where you get your Tussah silk from ? Mine doesn’t melt as fast as yours. I love how fast yours melted.

@EllenRuthSoap 4 жыл бұрын

I got it on Amazon, a long time ago.... Lasts forever... It's raw and unrefined / narural (not bleached). Hope this helps 😉

Thank you I really enjoy your videos ❣️. I have a quick question, if you will consider answering me. I am wondering what your sprinkling on top of your soaps at the end. It looks white? 🧐❤️

Thanks! Those are Jasmine flower buds, just for pretties

@karellarsen939 5 жыл бұрын

Oh 😊. Yes. I maybe saw a different video of yours. I’m sorry, I meant the white sprinkles that looked like sugar or salt maybe. I’m a pest. 🥴 thank you Ellen❣️

@@karellarsen939 I use several different kinds of sprinkles... If you comment on the video you're curious about, then I can tell you what I've used in that one..

Hi, the flowers u used on top were the dry ones? As the fresh ones can cause mold in the soap! I’m starting new soaps and your all videos are so helpful🤗

Yes, I really like the way it feels in the finished soap. It adds a very "silky" feel to the lather...

Wouldn't the lye destroy all the good properties of the tea?

@EllenRuthSoap 5 жыл бұрын

Good question, I find that different ingredients are fun to work with, and add a new dimension to the soap. I use herbal infused oils too.... I hope/think some of the "good stuff" is still in there...
