Hi everyone! Welcome back to the Rainbow Extravaganza for 2020! In this video, I’m making our Chasing Rainbows Soap. This soap is scented in an ‘orange fruit’ blend of mango, tangerine, orange, and peach, with a hint of strawberry. It’s so amazing!
I’m only making one video per soap for this Rainbow Extravaganza. Since this video was sped up but not really short, I decided to try another voice over. Thanks for watching!
We are still eyeballing July 30 to release the Rainbow Extravaganza products on our website. Stay tuned to our social media accounts to stay up to date.

F A Q S
Why doesn’t your video have a recipe and supply list? This video is not a tutorial.
How do I get started in soapmaking? Start off by researching. Educate and then experiment. Be sure to follow all proper safety precautions. A great starting place is the beginner cold process soapmaking series by SoapQueenTV here on YouTube. You can then purchase all the supplies you need at Bramble Berry. Lovin Soap Studio also has a beginner series on YouTube.
Why don’t you share your cold process soap recipe? Our recipe is proprietary. We are contractually obligated to keep our recipe a secret. I do occasionally share a test recipe. I highly recommend Bramble Berry, Lovin’ Soap, and The Nerdy Farm Wife for free recipes. Those resources are a great starting point and then you can tweak your favorite recipe to make it your own.
Where do you buy your oils? We purchase our oils in bulk at Soapers Choice, Wholesale Supplies Plus, and Sam’s Club.
Where did you buy your molds? My husband builds all my wood molds. My silicone molds are from various suppliers.
Where did you buy your soap planer? My husband built the soap planer for me.
Where did you buy your soap cutter? We purchased our soap cutter at Bud’s Woodshop.
Where did you buy your soap loaf splitter? Our loaf splitter was purchased from Smith Creek Studio.
Where do you buy your soaping containers? My pitchers are from School Masters and my large plastic containers are from Webstaurant Store.
Where do you buy your fragrance oils? We purchase our oils from many different suppliers. We don’t have a one-stop-shop for all of our oils. We blend the majority of the fragrances we work with.
Where do you buy your colors? We buy our colors at Bramble Berry, Nurture Soap, and Mad Micas.
Where do you buy your coconut milk? I was buying So Delicious Organic Coconut Milk on Amazon but I think you all bought them out! Ha! I now buy Native Forest Organic Coconut Milk. Please don’t buy them out. I need coconut milk. lol
Where do you buy your soap boxes? We usually buy our boxes from Wholesale Supplies Plus or Elements Bath and Body.
How do you design and print your labels? I use Adobe Photoshop to design my labels. I use full sheet labels and print with our HP Laser Jet Pro printer.
Where do you buy your packaging materials? We buy our packaging materials at various suppliers including Paper Mart, ULine, Nashville Wraps, Eco Enclose, and Amazon.
Do you give classes? No, I do not offer classes. However, if you need help, leave me a comment and I’ll see what I can do.
Why are the comments disabled on your older videos? Due to some very negative, hateful, and vile comments, I am no longer allowing commenting on older videos. The older videos seem to be the ones targeted. Newer videos may have approved comments for a time. I welcome decent, respectful comments.

Hi everyone! Thank you for watching! We're still planning our Rainbow Extravaganza product release for Thursday, July 30th at moriversoap.com. I have been working on wax melts and hope to make a few bath products this coming week. Be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook for updates. Also, sign up for our mailing list at moriversoap.com. This is soap #9 out of 17! (Rainbow & Neon Rainbow shared a video.) I know so many of you love the long and chatty videos but since I recorded every single soap this time, I had to make some of them the short & sweet edits for the simple reason that I can't spend that much time editing. I'm busy y'all! Thank you for understanding!
Oh my, another amazing rainbow soap, I'm living them!!!! Keep em coming Holly, I never get tired of watching your videos short or chatty, both fine with me 🥰😍
I just love your videos! I must admit, I watch them mostly when I want to settle down for the night- it helps me relax and end up falling asleep (and I am not insinuating you are boring or anything bad lol!) 💙♥️
I love the way this one looks…I also am intrigued by the fragrance notes!🍊
I love how this soap turned out, how the colors are in mixed up layers instead of just swirled. How long do your soaps cure before you sell them?
I'm so excited you remade this one. I was able to get it the last time you made it. It smells so good, and I love the design.
Love it 💕💕
Love it!👏🏽👍🏽
I just adore your vibrant colors!😍 The white really sets them off perfectly. Another gorgeous soap!💗
This soap is so pretty! Been loving watching all of the videos you’ve been posting!
Hi! Love this! Loved you from your beginnings here – love you still and your products. Sure wish there was a way to make you tube show all of your videos in a list to the right instead of showing their own suggestions there after your video is complete. I'd just binge watch you/listen to you daily, weekly 🙂 Have a blessed rest of the year!
Love how this soap looks, so pretty! Another masterpiece Holly!! 😊💗
Love, love, love your videos.
Simple, but so pretty!
Gorgeous….. 💯💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️
I love how the middle stands out. This is a great looking soap
Oh. my. goodness. When you used your scraper to smooth down all the colors in the soap box, I wanted to call someone. The pattern was so pretty! Please do a soap in the future where you scrape the colors at the top and they kinda melt together.. Sooooooo pretty!!!!!
The look of the rainbow after you flattened it was amazing! At 3:40
Luv this soap!! Can’t wait to get some 🌻
What size is the mold you husband made for you? Beautiful soap..🤩
A comment you made, “think about what it will look like from the short side”. This should have been obvious but I hadn’t thought about it so THANKS for pointing it out to a “blind” person!
wow i just found this and im sooooo amazed……gorgeous !!!
