- Hot process soap, made with 30% Tallow which includes 4% Bison Tallow, gifted from Miha at Apitherapi! Calendula infused Olive Oil, with Kombucha, Coconut Milk, Mulberry Silk Top, Honey, Lanolin, Yogurt and much more! This formula is for your own use, but please do not sell it as your own, enjoy!
Frankincense,Myrrh - with 4% Bison Tallow & 30% Beef Tallow Total - with Calendula Infused Olive Oil
- Formula by Valerie Mosher, October 15, 2019
ALWAYS make sure you put through a Soap Calculator before using! I soaped this formula at 38% lye liquid and Super Fatted at 5% upfront and added 5% SF after the cook. Used Sodium Lactate at 5% of oils and I “did not” discount this amount from my lye liquid. I added the Sodium Lactate heated after the cook. This was a 3lb batch. ---------
Formula:
Castor Oil - 17%
Coconut Oil (76 deg) - 12%
Olive Oil (100% Pure, INFUSED with Calendula) - 23%
Palm Oil - 18%
Beef Tallow 30% (which I used 2 ounces of Bison Tallow & 28 ounces of Beef Tallow)
Lye Liquid amount = 38% (I used a mixture of Calendula Tea, Kombucha, AVJ --- out of that total amount (you can pick whatever percentages of those you like) of liquid I used 4 ounces of coconut milk, 2 ounces went into the cook after the lye liquid and 2 ounces of that was added hot after the cook.
Additions I used were :
Mulberry Silk
2 full Tbsp Honey (mixed with 2 tbsp Aloe Vera Gel, maybe too much including the lanolin? And added warmed after the cook when the temperature was under 175F) and 1 full Tbsp of lanolin.
3 Tbsp Greek Yogurt (room temperature added after cook)
3 Tbsp sugar & 1Tbsp Maple Syrup with 3 Tbsp Kombucha (dissolved completely and added hot after the cook along with my 5% extra super fat)
1 egg yolk mixed with my oils very well “before” adding the lye liquid
2 Tbsp ground flax with 2 tsp Seabuckthorn powder and 1 Tbsp ground calendula petals added to “only” 2/3 or ¾ of the batter.
EO’s I used were: Frankincense, Myrrh, Lavender, Patchouli, Lemon, Benzoin, Myrrh Resin
Hope you enjoy!

Oh dearest Valerie! I am so glad to see another wonderful soap from you! I want you to know that you have been my Crockpot inspiration. I used to make my soaps in the oven, in a cast iron Dutch oven until I saw your style. I give you the credit in my very first- poorly lit- video! Thank you for continuing to teach us and for the love of the craft you display. I wish you all Blessings. Exotic ingredients, I love it!
dear Soap Peasant! how very kind and thoughtful of you and I appreciate that very much! I've not cooked soap in the oven yet but that is on my to do list and on top of the stove as well (in a pot of course lol ) I must go watch when I get caught up on my soaps, big hugs to you and I humbly thank you for your very generous words!
I love watching your video's!!!!
dear Ellen, thank you so very kindly!
Yaaaaay
Thank youuuu
I follow so many soapers on CZcams, love them all but you are my favorite
God bless you
hello Miss Sha and thank you so very humbly for that support and lovely compliment, there sure is a load of wonderful soapers out there indeed, and tons not even on FB or social media! big hugs
Hi Valerie! I think I'm in LOVE with tallow these days. I just rendered grass fed beef and it is amazing. All of the ingredients in this soap are amazing. Wow! I didn't know you could drink frankincense tea. I'll have to give it a try. The tallow I find is just as good for cooking as soap making. Beautiful soap hon! I bet it feels amazing on the skin. Playing in the soapy kitchen is so much fun and I enjoyed watching you create.
hey dear Jen, thank you ever so much for stopping by and for those very kind words! I love tallow and lard, but the first time for me using Bison, and I was very blessed to have a dear lady gift me some!!! Love it in facial creams and body creams as well! I've read that Bison tallow is more drying then regular beef tallow, so I've tried to compensate with that info in this formula, as total amount of SF is 10 % with lower cleansing and higher conditioning! big hugs
They are us count us a super fat.
So good to see your soaping video again. Hope your arm is better.
you are so very kind and thoughtful NashipurSinha and I appreciate that, my wrist "bone" is all healed, but the ligaments/tendons/tissue is a work in progress, so onward and upward!
She was listing off the ingredients, and I just got so excited! It all sounds so wonderful and luscious for the skin!!
hey there Cierra Shea --- thank you for stopping by and you made me smile with those comments, ... it's always fun and informational when im using new things and when im learning new things about ingredients to use in my soaps, i love it that there is soooooo much out there to use! And yes, indeed making soap that is great for the skin is the main thing and always has been from the get go, over 7 years of soaping now and it went by in a snap!
Wow Valerie what super impressive ingredients amazing. You never stop surprising us with your knowledge I am truly impressed. I bet this soap is amazing on the skin with those types of ingredients thanks very much for sharing your knowledge with us wow. 💐💐💐
dear Eve, you are ever so kind and very generous! I humbly thank you, i'm still learning all the time too, and i'm just blessed to know that these videos can/do help in any way...you are so very welcome, big hugs
cuanto me alegro que ya estés recuperada,te echaba de menos tus vídeos me encantan y con tu amabilidad te los copio ,tus jabones los adoro mi piel queda como la seda un abrazo.
muchas gracias Rita. ¡Estoy tan emocionado de que disfrutes estos videos y que te encanten las fórmulas! mi hueso de la muñeca está mejor que nunca y los tejidos blandos y los tendones aún se están curando, pero estoy en camino y muy bendecido. mucho amor a través de las millas y grandes abrazos
💖💞Really lovely!
thank you very kindly!
So pretty, and what a nice lather! Your colors came out so subtle and earthy - just beautiful! 💜💛💚💙💜💛💚💙 My best lathering soap so far had castor oil in the cook and in the post-cook superfat. Yay for castor! 😄 When it comes to coloring, if you wanted a really white soap, how much TD powder would you add to 32oz of oils? Or would you prefer zinc oxide? Do you think we need to use more zinc oxide to get the same effect as TD? I'm so happy you have a new video up - I'm downloading it so I can watch it again while I'm traveling, tomorrow. Great to see you! Happy weekend!
dear Elizabeth! thank you so kindly, with a darker batter it can be tricky sometimes to decide how much batter to color and if I had done a "better" lol, design, you may have seen the colors more....when im needing a whiter batter for a design, I try to incorporate more "lighter" oils and tallow too, and then say if it is a 2lb batch i'll add, 1-2 tsp of TD "water" soluble....BUT, your FO and/or EO can end up discoloring the white even if the batter is white, and I've found it will not matter how much TD you use....soooo as long as your EO/FO does not discolor, I've found that to be good for me, and of course that will depend on if you have other colors or not....Zinc oxide does take more to color, but I've not ever been using it by itself any more, because of spots, so now I mix with some white kaolin and it is working beautifully! big hugs and drive safe!
@@shalebrookhandcraftedsoap7907 I think you did a lovely job with this color experiment. Thank you for your thoughts on the TD/zinc oxide. So far, I think figuring out colors is the hardest part of soaping - so much for being an artist my whole adult life. 😁 Soap can quickly disabuse you of any sense of color competence. If the lye doesn't wreak havoc on your color scheme, the EO/FO oil will. 😃 I'm sticking with your approach - make a skin-friendly formula and the rest is just play and surprises. Have a great day and thanks again for the new video - watched it twice on my flight. 💜💛💚💙💜💛💚💙
Sounds like a lot of great ingredients and the lather was amazing!🤩
Hey ! and thank you so much, I love lather!
Thank you for posting beautiful and amazing videos all the time. It's hard to get buffalo oil in my country. Nevertheless, the soap in the video is beautiful, so I'm going to make it with only normal tallow oil. I am not good at English. But Valerie's video can understand English if I listen to it two or three times. I'm always amazed by Valerie's knowledge. I hope Valerie is always healthy and happy. See you next time.
hello there and thank you ever so humbly for those incredibly lovely, kind, generous and very thoughtful words! how I wish I could speak your language as well, and i'm so glad that you are able to figure them out, God bless you in that area! This is the first time I've used Bison tallow and I probably will not be getting it too much as this was gifted to me...I do love using beef tallow, and I've also used Goat Tallow, Venison Tallow and they are beautiful as well....i'm always learning and I make mistakes and for sure I do not and never will know everything, I do a fair amount of research and I learn from others, new soapers and experienced soapers...big hugs to you across the miles
Great job, I use bison in mine too, awesome job
thank you so kindly Patrick and thank you for stopping in...I did read that Bison tallow is more drying so I have higher conditioning and lower cleansing/drying/stripping numbers and SF this at 10%, so far in testing it's wonderful!
Thank you for the video. Your formulas are so interesting. We live in East Tennessee but have been to Novia Scotia camping. We love it there!
Hello Barbara and thank you for stopping by to see this video and formula! thank you for the kind words as well and that is sooo wonderful that you were here camping! 'm truly a "Bluenoser" indeed, I love NS, my hubby and I have been to Tennessee driving through there, as well and we also went to Renfro Valley in Kentucky too, saw Randy Travis in concert, and along the states there and went to the Zoo in Knoxsville….about 15 years ago (forever it seems)!
Send me an email if you ever come back. We can soap together!
Thank you for sharing and another wonderful video Valerie ! What is your favorite stick blender nowadays?
hello dear Ellen and thank you so kindly! -- my favorite right now and has been for the last little while is Braun MQ735 MultiQuick 400 watts - one of the best I've used, and it gives no bubbles in CP when I make it....
@@shalebrookhandcraftedsoap7907 Thank you !:)
Thanks Val, I enjoyed that..I. will def try that method..blessings always !
my pleasure , big hugs
I’m confused how the yogurt won’t spoil since it’s not part of the saponification process?
Hi lovely soap! I’m wondering what’s in the spray butter.
What are you spraying with? Did i miss when you told us? Rubbing alcohol?
Hello Carol S1 thank you for stopping in and for your question, I had mentioned on there that a really good thing to do so you don't get hard pieces of soap into the batter from the sides, and to help it from drying out, is to use a "very very" fine mist spray of warm water!.... I've tried the rubbin alcohol and it only made it worse for me personally, so that is not in my kitchen for this, lol
Thanks so much for your videos. I started making soap last month and decided I would start with the HTHP method and your videos have been very helpful. Do you find any difference with adding the ACV to the cooked soap?
Hello M J, thank you for stopping by and thank you for your kind words and i'm blessed that these videos can help or encourage for sure! When you ask if the ACV makes any difference to the cooked soap, do you mean in PH or? what I like about ACV is that it really boosts lather, and it is great for the skin...I do use it in my lye liquid and after the cook in my Egg shampoo bar, but I do not use it in all my formulas...in an all natural soap I will be prone to use it more and I like using kombucha as well and it would have similar properties to ACV...hopefully this has helped if not, please let me know...
@@shalebrookhandcraftedsoap7907 - thanks for the reply. I started using ACV 2 weeks ago and I am waiting for the bars to cure for another week before I try (I will say that the scraps that I have used are quite bubbly). Thanks again!
Do you use distilled water.
When u add yogurt you don’t discount it from the lye water?
hello Miss Sha, thank you for your question, No, I've never discounted the yogurt or the sodium lactate from my lye liquid!
Shalebrook Handcrafted Soap thanks for the reply
Hi Valerie - I see in your ingredients you listed mulberry silk but I didn't see in the video how you added it. Also where did you purchase it?
hello Gail and sorry for the late reply... i added that silk to my lye liquid about 25 minutes "before" I added the lye....cut up small and stirred around to get it all wet, i find that helps it to dissolve once the lye is added, almost instantly... I purchased mine from Cheryl Stilzeg, she owns Epic Stargazer.
Cicuenta mil ingredients ,,,,,,,,,,that’s why it’s great soap
me hiciste reír, sí, muchos ingredientes y me encanta usarlos, gracias amablemente Margarita!
I used the stearic acid in soap but I want to tell me is it useful such as sodium lactate?
I put 24 G for 1 kilogram of oils and can I put it more than that??
i like using SA in soap as it helps to harden and adds luscious lather as well, but normally i only use 3% in my formulas, and for sure, i do not use it in all my formulas, now when i make shaving soap i use 40-50% but that's a different matter and a very much different type of soap.
What size is your batch in this video? What size is your pot here? I'm wondering pot size vs batch size. Thanks.
hello and thank you for stopping in and for your question, this is a 3lb batch (I have the formula underneath the video, you can see it by clicking on the words "show more") the crock size i'm using is around a 4-5 quart size and i'll do my 2 and 3lb batches in there, but when I do 4 and 5 pound batches I go to a bigger crockpot.
Do you have a recipe book for purchase?
When will you have this for sale?
Hello Vel Mar - this is on my website for sale now. thank you for asking!
هذه العمل جميل ولاكن لا استطيع فهم شي للاسف😘🧕
thank you for stopping by and i'm truly sorry I cannot translate this to Arabic?
@@shalebrookhandcraftedsoap7907 he says that is awesome video but he can't understand anything
@@rebelsoul8593 Hey! thank you ever so kindly for letting me know, I really appreciate it -- that is too bad and it must be frustrating to not know what i'm saying -- I can understand as I've seen some videos on soaping and on baking etc that is in a foreign language to me and I cannot understand - it would be lovely to be able to speak In all languages! big hugs
@@shalebrookhandcraftedsoap7907
I'm very happy cuz you hugged me lol💗
I'm Egyptian girl and Arabic that is my mother language
I hope to see you in Egypt one day
You are very kind really
