Ultra Thin Swirl Soap Making | Soap Challenge Club

Making my soap for the Soap Challenge Club’s Ultra-thin Horizontal Swirl technique. I also included some clips of my other two attempts at the end of the video (one of which I thought was a fail but ended up being my favorite). Thank you so much for watching!

••• RECIPE •••
Total recipe weight: 1050g
Mold Size: 9¾ x 6¾ x 1¼”
Bars are about 3" x 2¼" x 1⅛"
(I used my old BrambleBerry 9 bar slab mold without the silicone liner)

I used one of the recipes provided to us in the Soap Challenge Club tutorial.
https://soapchallengeclub.com/tutorials/

Superfat: 5%

Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) & Distilled Water:
33% lye solution (Lye Concentration = 33% if using Soap Calc)
Water = 2 x NaOH

Use a soap calculator like the one at Majestic Mountain Sage (https://bit.ly/2ABEluj) or Soap Calc (https://bit.ly/3hmGMAB) to calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide required for your recipe.

Essential Oil Blend:
(one of my favorites…smells like sweet peppermint candy to me)
Lavender - 3 parts
Rosemary - 2 parts
Peppermint - 1 part

NOTE: I make soapmaking videos just for fun and to share my little bit of soapmaking knowledge with others. This isn't meant to be a tutorial, but I'm hoping you'll find it helpful or entertaining in some way. 💕😊
