Again, you are awesome to watch and so informative! Have you ever thought doing a live class? Or classes of any kind? I would sign up in a heart beat😁. I mean, you are so informative in your videos! But i feel like in the moment when things are going wrong for me. I'd love to be able to say... Mrs. Ruth "can you help me" hahaha. Thank you again for all your knowledge and spirited personality. It's a treat to watch what you make😁

Ellen yes to everything you said about gelling. I just love it and yes, the colors are more vibrant. I never put my soaps in the refrigerator. I gel all of them including the whole milk lye solution and so far no one volcano. I had some cracks and is always on my coconut milk, AloeVera and cucumber soap. I have no idea why, but it’s fine. I am a 50/50 lye soaper, even for my pine tar soaps. Love that fragrance and the color is so beautiful 😍 😊

Very pretty colors! Hi Ellen, I have a scale that will only read numbers with no decimal for gram weight, so I want to add coconut oil at 20% which is 6.40 oz, now when I try weigh that in grams, my metric converter gives me 181.44, what do I do?

Ellen why do you put Colliodal oats in soap?...is it to thicken it. your soaps are glorious.. I cant buy them from Australia ...But I can try to copy the receipe!..Many thanx..❤

I really like how the oats feel in the lather, and they have a skin soothing effect.. I do have a friend that is allergic to oats, so I make some without just for her.

How do you use soapcalc with this blend. I never make a soap recipe without checking on soapcalc.
@EllenRuthSoap5 күн бұрын
Makesy has the % for each oil in their blend, so if you get that you can then run the numbers👍

Question about the Goat milk....was it fresh or was it in powder form but you added water. Also, I never know when to add the sodium lactate. Thank you for the video. It's my evening wind down!!🥰

The goat milk was fresh, and I add the sodium lactate after the lye water has cooled just a bit.

I have a question since I read something in another channel. I use a shampoo bar but read that this kind of soap bars or shampoo bars with oil clog the drains. Any one experiencing this? If that the case what you do to avoid that problem , I still want to use my shampoo bars.
@EllenRuthSoap5 ай бұрын
I actually don't suggest using regular cold process soap for shampoo, it's a higher pH than recommended for shampoo. If your CP soap has the proper oil to lye ratio, there should not be too much extra oils to clog drains, it's all been saponified..
