Lisa: A Dreamy Soapmaker

 

Soap videos are so addicting. The rich colors flowing together to make something beautiful and useful capture my full attention. I watch a lot of soapy content, and I watch a lot of Lisa, who makes the soap of dreams. She is always trying something new and pushing soap just a little further out there. I don’t ask a lot of soap videos, so her determination to try everything has me playing her videos as soon as they come out.

A sampling of the kinds of soaps she makes: swirls, who knew that there were so many ways to pour and stir soap; scrapers, she uses plastic scrapers in just the right shapes to manipulate the soap batter into amazing landscapes and other scenes; embeds, small pieces of soap that are tucked into or onto the soap batter to be revealed as the soap is used. Beyond these techniques is what she does by combining techniques (check out “Starry Night.”). 

She truly is obsessed in the best way. If you like color and art and practical ingenuity that makes something beautiful then this is the YouTuber for you.
