This is very educational. I'm learning to make my own body wash at home and just relearning about pH since my undergrad

Thank you for sharing this very informative video. It is quite helpful. Now I am going to watch your previous video on citric acid. Also, I became a new subscriber. I am so glad your video appeared in my feed.

Please what can be used to adjust the pH level of the cold process soap to exact 5.5 or 6.5

So will a fresh batch of soap be more alkaline and then go to a lower ph

Hi, as someone who loves science, this was a great video. I was trying to guess your accent at first I thought you were from Germany then I toggled between Belgium and Swedish. I knew you weren't from France due to I am French. I checked your bio, and I was correct German❤❤.

That may not be true for bar soap. I have been making soap for 30 years. And in liquid soap citric acid lowers PH. And also vintage works. I would say this video is not at all accurate
