Ingredients
Instructions
- Chop the soap base into small pieces and melt in a double boiler or a glass bowl set atop a pot of boiling water. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in the essential oils.
- Split the melted base into two separate containers. Stir in the mica powders, making a different color in each container.
- Pour the melted soap base into the silicone molds, alternating between colors. Add a little bit of each color at a time to create different layers.
- Allow soap bars to harden before removing from the molds and adding labels.
Notes
- Melt and pour soap base can take a long time to melt down. I recommend chopping it into smaller pieces to speed up the process.
- Work quickly! The soap base will start to harden pretty fast, so it's important to pour it into the molds as soon as possible.
- For best results, I recommend letting your soap cure overnight before using it.
- Store the soap bars in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maximize their shelf life.
- Don't forget to add the label to your soap if you are gifting it! You can get free printable labels in my member resource library.
