Welcome back to Part 2 of our Cold Process Soap Series! Last time we covered lye safety — now we're breaking down exactly what goes into a bar of cold-process soap, so you know what you're putting on your skin (and why it matters).

Here's what you'll learn in this video:
■ The specific oils/butters to use
■ Why lye is a non-negotiable ingredient (and what happens to it once your soap cures)
■ The role water plays in the saponification process
■ Why we use essential oils
