Every month we will post different recipes and information
that we have received from your e-mails to share with everyone!
Massage oil recipes, soap recipes or special methods with blending.
Let us all be informed!
Step 1
Slice the soap into small cubes for quick easy melting
Step 2
Place the cubes into a Pyrex measuring cup and microwave for approximately
45 seconds to 1 minute - depending on the amount of soap. (you
want to make sure that you don't microwave for too long and boil
the soap) Remove and stir lightly. Continue melting in 15 second
intervals, stirring between each interval until soap is melted.
Remove from microwave and stir lightly to melt any remaining soap
pieces.
Step 3
Once soap is melted, add colour if desired & stir lightly.
Step 4
Add a few drops of fragrance oil or essential oil and stir lightly.
You can also add any butters or botanicals you may want in your
soap such as cocoa butter, shea butter, walnut husk exfoliate,
lavender flowers, etc.
Step 5
Pour into molds (if using any other that soap molds you may want
to pre-treat very lightly with Vaseline for easy removal)
Step 6
Once soap has hardened (time will vary depending on size and thickness
of bars) pop it out of the mold. For a faster set, allow the soap
to cool for 1 minute, then cover with plastic wrap and place in
the refrigerator until hard (approximately 10 minutes).
