Cold process soap making

This was my first time doing soap from scratch and Im so excited to do more. I wish I could post long videos here but I had to trim it 😢 can’t wait to test them out in about 6 weeks www.luxe-majesty.com #soapmakerlife #soapmaking #coldprocesssoap #learning #fyp

Cold process soap making is an art that allows for full customization of scents, colors, and textures in your soaps. Unlike melt and pour methods, this technique involves blending oils and lye to create saponification, resulting in a solid bar of soap. For those new to soap making, it can be an exciting yet daunting process. Start by researching the best oils for your skin type, as each oil contributes unique properties to the final product. For instance, olive oil provides moisture while coconut oil adds lather. Safety is paramount; always wear protective gear when handling lye since it can cause severe burns. Once you've mastered the basics, explore the vast universe of additives like essential oils and natural colorants that can enhance your soap's aesthetic and therapeutic qualities. Keep in mind that patience is key, as cold process soaps require 4-6 weeks to cure before they can be used. Enjoy the creative journey and share your discoveries with fellow soap enthusiasts in the online community!
