How does it smell?

How much lard? What is the amount/volume of lard to lye mixture?

This soap is awesome! It's great for my sensitive skin! I feel squeaky clean after a shower and my skin is nourished and SOFT! This is literally the only soap you'll ever need and it's totally free of chemicals! 👍👍❤

you are doing a great job and I tried the soap first with the soap base which I had purchased from this store. maps.app.goo.gl/hDxvqaxBXg5J6Vuw7 and it is really amazing.

Use 1/2 ice and 1/2 water...does not get so HOT!

Lye is basic, but yes - it will burn.

I’m overflowing with gratitude 🙏 for you sharing your cherished homestead recipe and techniques. You’ve truly kindled a spark of inspiration in me to create soap for my loved ones 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. I’m a firm believer in the beauty of simplicity! I do have one query - could you kindly share where you procure your lye beads and essential oils? The quality of ingredients can indeed be the deciding factor between a good and a great recipe. 🌿🧼

Apologies - I missed how much lard you are using in this video/Soap recipe

Can this be use as shampoo??

Hi. Can you please write a book with your recipes? I would definitely buy it 😊

Hi. I'm just curious why you still like to have feisty chicken breeds? I do have a variety of breeds and I don't like those who seem to be too dumb, neither the aggressive ones. Calm and friendly are my favorites 😍

Can the lye be washed off your utensils so they can be used for food again or are they only for soap making now?

Hello thanks for your videos i love it i will start to try it ❤❤

I find you so helpful! Thank you for sharing

I really really love your tutorials, and have been trying for, what feels like forever, to convince my wife to ditch the corporate world and take this up, but she’s not quite ready yet 🥰 I do have to say though, whoever is helping you off screen, you talk to them like they’re a dumb child… I think you’re fabulous, so I know you can do better. ♥️

Instead of using olive oil would it work with MCT and tallow and Squalane oil as long as the fat still equals the 50 ounces? (I have sub derm, and malassazia safe oils like MCT and squalane don’t feed it, that is why I make my own soap, it’s hard to buy).

In this video you mention using the leftover that won't fit in your mold to make laundry soap. Do you have to do anything different when using the bar soap leftover or just use it to replace the pink zote in your laundry soap video?

Lye is not an acid, it is a BASE on the chemistry scale 😀

Love her

How much lard are you using? Id love to make it 😍

Hi everyone I love the looks off that soap and want to try it but I'm not sure of the size containers of the lard, thanks for sharing.

Very nice job. Best and just what I needed .

THANKYOU 🙌🙌. You are the first person in a soap-making video to mention "vinegar". In case of a accident with lye getting on skin. Thankyou again ❤❤💯

I love your recipe Becky I've used it many times and I'm so glad it's still on KZfaq

Thanks for sharing this video, very informative and simple

Thanks so much, this recipe is perfect. I made soap and it makes a great homemade gift... It is also just flat out good soap. This is GOOD CLEAN FUN!

Can I replace the water with aloe Vera? Thank you

Becky+++++++++++++++++++ I use a scent oil....I make my oil from the thyme or rosemary I grow in my herb garden....I just have so much waste of the herbs if I don't get creative- like defused oils. Search how to infuse oil with your herb of choice and it'll show you how. OR I've been known to just cheat and buy some orange oil or scented oil. Whatever you like is fine. I like my lard soap to smell good like my great granny's did. She put dried, ground up orange peel AND orange oil into hers. It smelled like fresh squeezed oranges and the orange peel would gently scrub off the dirt. I'm 51 so, she knew all the old secrets to making stuff. LOL.

Going to keep us posted??? Gee Becky, hope you're doing alright...its only been 3 years now. 😳😓😪

Hi you say a 100 degree, so is it Fahrenheit or celcius, I want to try it and I need to know asap

After my first attempt it came out perfect,good work becky

Thank you for your discription 👍👍👍

This was the best video of soap making! Thank you!

I have made many batches of homemade lye soap; some with store bought lye and some making my own wood ash lye. I have never wrapped the new soap in blankets and my soap has always come out beautifully. While i dont see any harm in doingso, it just seems like an unnecessary step. Also, it can be a little iffy mixing the lye in a plastic container. There is such variation in plastics that the heat generated might cause disintegration and or melting of the plastic container. I would personally be concerned about with the heat it could cause leavhing of the chemicals from the plastic into the soap. A large glass bowl might be a better option because you know it wont react with the lye.

Your soap tutorial was so well done! Making soap is something I've wanted to try for a long time. I'm excited about this. I've seen a lot of soap Tutorials, and this one is the best one. Great job! Thank you so much, Becky.

madam aap discrupiton box me lik diya karo piz

Can I use coconut oil insted in ? No lie ?.

No gloves ??😮

This is the best video I've watched so far. One question though? Will it mess up the recipe if essential oils are added?

It is a very good recipe of soap. Can I wash clothes or dishes with this soap?

If one does not want to use lsrd what can one use ?

If your bars of soap get slimy over time, you've done something wrong.

Will swirls (color)hold up well in this lard soap? I've did it with other oils. I love this. I've made Lard soap. Want to try swirling

who's here after watching fight club

My soap didn't trace. Even after 7 or 8 times 20 seconds mixing and kept stirring for another 15 minutes or so. Any idea what could have gone wrong? I do live in a very hot climate and it was 89F in the house. Could that be a factor?

Hi becky can this be used for washing dishes?

You are the best of all soap teachers. Thank you Becky❤

How many onzes lard you have there?
