When making cold process soaps, I always end with spraying 99.9% isopropyl alcohol on top of my batches before they sit for the night and I cut into them. Why?? All because of soda ash, which is just an ashy film that can occur over the tops of your soaps. 🙄 It is caused by the unsaponified lye in the soap reacting to the natural carbon dioxide in the air. It is strictly cosmetic, doesn’t affect your soap or the properties of the soap at all, but it certainly is annoying!😩 Spraying the alcohol on top of the soap creates a barrier betwee...

Notice how the center of this bar of soap looks a little darker than the outer edges😱 That is because this batch went through something called gel phase. Gel phase in soaping is when your batch of soap is going through the heating stage of saponification.🔥During this stage your soap can reach temperatures up to 180°F, causing the soap to heat up from the inside out. The center of your soap mold can begin to look gel like or translucent when it is heating up this much.🥵 It is not a bad thing for your soap to go through gel phase, in fa...

I’ve been spending so much time in the sun lately…but never forget to wear my sunscreen!!☀️ It took me many years to understand the importance of wearing sunscreen everyday but I am sooo happy that I finally started. Apart from protecting your skin from the suns harmful UV rays, sunscreen helps prevent your skin from aging, skin cancer and discoloration.🤩 Maybe one of these days I’ll try making my own sunscreen!🤔🧴

Remember guys, you must use sodium hydroxide (lye) to make bars of soap! If you are ever using a bar of soap, it was made with lye. Without it, the oils in your recipe would just continue to stay oils, if no lye is added there can be no chemical change to turn it into soap 🤓
