Recipes:
• Melt & Pour
Tips:
• To embed soap chunks or shapes into another bar of soap, melt the main/base soap, let it cool a bit. Spray the soap chunks or soap shapes with rubbing alcohol and place in the mold. Then when the base soap is starting to get thicker/cooler, pour this over the shape/chunks in the mold. Make sure to lift up the chunks/shapes once your pour the overpour so that they are surrounded by soap.
• Create layered soaps - melt/scent/color some soap, and pour one layer of it into your mold. Let that start to set - in the mean time, melt/scent/color the next layer. When the first layer has a thick skin, and when the next layer is cooled a bit, spray the first layer with rubbing alcohol, and pour the second layer. You can repeat this with as many layers as you'd like!
Ideas:
• Use cookie cutters to make neat shapes! Pour a thin layer of soap on a plate, place the cutter in it. When it hardens, you can melt, scent, & color your additional soap and pour into the cutter.
• Use cosmetic glitter or mica to add a glitter or a shimmer to your soaps. You can find glitter at Wholesale Supplies Plus and micas at Brambleberry or from the Pigment Lady.
