Shea Coconut Milk Soapmaking | What To Do When Your Soap Seizes Mid-Pour

Today I’m making cold process coconut milk soap from scratch — and let’s just say, the soap had other plans. In this video, I walk you through my full process, what happens when soap seizes or accelerates, and the lessons learned when soaping at higher temperatures. If you’ve ever struggled with fast trace, thick batter, or soap seizing mid-pour, this video will help you understand what went wrong and how to prevent it in your next batch. Soapmaking is chemistry — and sometimes it teaches you patience. #coldprocesssoap #coconutmilksoap #soapmaking #handmadesoap #soapfails #soaptroubleshooting #naturalsoap #diysoap #soapbusiness #artisansoap Where to purchase https://nasabb.com/ https://www.etsy.com/shop/qualityshea...
