Curious about making breast milk soap without scorching the milk? 🍼❄️
We add lye to frozen breast milk on ice to keep the temperature low, preserving nutrients during saponification. This keeps the soap gentle for baby’s sensitive skin.
Is natural always better? Let’s discuss. 🌿 Just because something’s natural doesn’t make it good (and synthetic doesn’t always mean bad). 💡 Everything is chemicals—even water. 👉 What do you think: natural vs. safe synthetics? Share your opinion!
You’re not actually allergic to lye—because if you were, you couldn’t use any real soap. 🤯 Real talk: The lye is gone after saponification. It’s chemistry, not magic. 💡 Soap without lye? Doesn’t exist. 👉 Did you think lye-free soap was a thing? Tell me!
What’s worse: body wash in a plastic bottle or bar soap with palm oil? 🌴 Both have impact—but which one’s the bigger villain? 💡 Sustainability isn’t black and white. 👉 Drop your vote below: 🧴 for body wash or 🌴 for palm oil bars.
Listen, if you’re still letting your soap molds flop around like a fish outta water, you’re doing it wrong. I’ll show you my quick (and sassy) trick for handling those floppy molds without making a hot mess. Grab a tray, slam it like it owes you money, and boom—perfect soap every time.
Stop calling melt-and-pour bars handmade. There, I said it. 🔥 It’s not the same as cold process or hot process—and that’s okay! But call it what it is. 💡 Handmade ≠ re-melted base. 👉 Agree or disagree? Let’s discuss.

If you’re not washing your legs in the shower… we need to talk. 🚿 Yes, it’s a thing. No, rinsing doesn’t count. 💡 Soap + water + scrub = actual clean. 👉 Do you wash your legs every shower? Comment YES or NO!
This was a special custom order: a bar of soap made with a mother’s own breast milk for her baby. She gave it to me frozen, and to preserve its goodness we worked carefully — slowly adding our lye solution to the frozen milk over ice so it wouldn’t scorch or lose its benefits.
You don’t need antibacterial soap—plain soap works just as well. 🧼 The FDA said so YEARS ago. 💡 Overkill doesn’t make you cleaner—it just kills your skin microbiome. 👉 Did you know this?
This batch was made with a very special little one in mind. When we create soap for babies, we adjust our recipe to make it as gentle as possible. While olive oil doesn’t give a big bubbly lather, it creates a softer, creamier bar that’s extra kind to delicate skin.
Why are we still buying soap with plastic packaging in 2025? ♻️ We know better now. Time to do better. 💡 Bars = zero waste, no excuses. 👉 Are you team plastic-free yet? Yes or not yet?
This Halloween, my teacher friends and I decided we’re going as “six sevens.” Yep, one of us will be a six, another a seven… together we’ll be 67! Pair that with a writing assignment where students use 67 words, and it’s classroom comedy gold.
If your soap has a 20-ingredient list you can’t pronounce, is it really soap? 🤔 Read the label. Real soap is simple—oils + lye + love. 💡 If it sounds like a science experiment, maybe skip it. 👉 What’s the weirdest thing you’ve seen on an ingredient list? Comment below!
We’ve reformulated our body butter into an emulsified body butter — and it’s a game changer! By adding a touch of emulsifying wax, stearic acid, and a preservative, it’s now more like a rich lotion that glides on beautifully and absorbs without the heavy, greasy feel.
Stop hoarding the ‘good soap’ for guests—YOU deserve it. 🚫 Why are you saving the good stuff for people who don’t even live in your house? 💡 Life’s short. Use the good soap. 👉 Do you have a “guest-only” stash? Be honest!

When we make soap, we start with a blend of nourishing oils, mix in a sodium hydroxide solution, and sometimes add fragrance, color, or extra ingredients like goat milk or clays. Every so often, we get special requests — like making soap with breast milk for a baby.
