why is she selling soap directly out of her mold before it is cured completely? I might be wrong, but someone set me straight here... :-\

Yeah, even with hot process (which is fine right out of the mold), I still wouldn't sell it that soon because even with HP the quality goes up SO MUCH with a nice cure. But if that's CP... *shivers*

Because she is an interesting duck, lol

But all judgements aside, if she can sell a bar of soap for 6 bucks thats only going to last a week and have people still come back for more, more power to her.
 
To make and sell soap to the public, a clean and uncluttered environment is needed,after watching the above,with piles of stuff on the floor and table,would wonder what might end up in the soap?:roll:
 
Check out this one, I stopped watching after I seen her fingernails

You should see my fingernails after picking herbs for two weeks straight. There isnt a soap on the planet that will remove the stains that remain for weeks after.

I just watched another of nancys videos from the same day. She clearly tells people that the soaps are fresh and to let them sit.
 
She's been at this for years and in just about every soaping video, she encounters a problem. At least now she's actually weighing and paying attention (somewhat) to what she's putting in there. For fun, search for the video where she tries to get her first soaps out of the drain pipe. My husband thought I was watching dirty movies from the sounds she makes :)

And truly, I have enough trouble soaping with TWO hands - I have no idea why she hasn't purchased a tripod yet. The woman videos EVERYTHING; even when she's driving down the road.

No kidding! And she has more guts -or nuts- than most. Some of these posts lately are a timely reminder why i wont make a video and subject my life to the microscope that she does. Im sure on unedited video none of us would be the picture of perfection we might aim for.
 
What got me was the clutter and dirty looking workspace. When I make soap, my workspace is clean and clear of most everything....I like to have things pre-measured and set up so that I have unnecessary items out of the way. This was scary...especially the lye solution....can she be sure none of those crystals got in that soap??
 
Watch this one and kill yourself. Only kidding; she is so sweet and the camera is her friend - but see if you catch how much she charged for her very first soaps.

Soaping aside, NANCY! Your shirt is on wrong side out! Lol! I have seen plenty of her videos and I wish I had her cheerful disposition. But glad I soap the way I do.

Ha, thats a good one. And, not bad, not bad at all, even for only 7.
 
And I will say that I am extremely jealous that she can just hop in the kayak (with her camera, lol) and have a little private time on the lake. I am so self-conscious that I could never be seen paddling away, talking to myself :)
 
You aren't wrong, she is. That soap is still squishy looking inside, I bet she doesn't have many repeat customers. I've seen some of her other videos, I would never, ever buy her soap.

She is a horrible example- she colors her soap with crayons. I hate her videos and get into it with her on You Tube. LOL She gives true soap makers a bad name IMHO.
