Becky's Beginner Bar Soap Recipe: 3 Simple Ingredients Lye, Lard, & Water

[violingurlblue]

THANKYOU 🙌🙌. You are the first person in a soap-making video to mention "vinegar". In case of a accident with lye getting on skin. Thankyou again ❤❤💯

To me; women who explore this kind of craft and develop their sense of environmental ingenuity are super-duper attractive. A soft heart with an iron will. It’s what builds a nation before that nation is corrupted. God bless her.

I got a tad emotional in the intro....how well I understand the "give up the rat race or carrot on a stick" lifestyle. My wife and I found a turn of the century home in the country where we raised our family of four children...horses, pigs, chickens, geese...you name it. That was thirty six years ago. To this day all of my children thank us for raising them in the country and brag on how wonderful and full their childhood was. Now, eleven grand children later... my daughter is doing the same. She and her family are beginning a homesteading life...I will give her a link to your wonderful channel. God Bless.

Hi Becky!
FYI: lye is NOT acid, it is "basic" or alkaline, which is why the acetic acid in vinegar wil neutralize it.
Nice video!

Your soap tutorial was so well done! Making soap is something I've wanted to try for a long time. I'm excited about this. I've seen a lot of soap Tutorials, and this one is the best one. Great job! Thank you so much, Becky.

Lye is a base, or alkaline, vinegar is an acid, that's why they neutralize each other.

My wife and I followed a similar recipe last year and it came out great. We made a second batch and added several hand fulls of rose petals and the same with sweet pea petals. This gave a really nice natural sent to the soap my wife loves. You could buy and add essential oils but that would just be adding additional chemicals. Great video. The hand mixer save a ton of stirring. I'm getting one.!!! Pronto CB

I use Hershey Cocoa powder containers for my molds. They make perfect rounded corners and you get three nice sized bars per container and, they have a lid!

This is my favorite soap recipe. I use it as a shampoo bar soap. Depending on the weather, I can go 3-4 days without washing my hair. I use to have to wash my hair everyday. And my hair got thicker and grows faster. It's so healthy. I LOVE IT! Only 3 Ingredients and 1 optional. 33oz Coconut Oil 12.54oz Distilled Water 5.44 oz Lye and Optional 1/2 to 1 oz essential oil.

Your use of lard brought back lovely memories of my mother-in-law who saved all her bacon grease to make her soap with. Thanks Becky

I'm almost ready to make my first "loaf" of soap and this is the best video I've seen.  You are super fun.  Thank you for the close ups and explaining what trace looks like (no one else did).  I can't wait to try this.  Thank you!  :0)
