beautiful boutique quality handmade soaps in your kitchen. Basic Melting
Instructions: You’ll need some items from around the house: microwave, cutting
board, glass measuring cups, kitchen knife, spoon for stirring and propping,
plastic wrap, scissors, (optional-rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle) Prepare:
Depending on your project, decide how much clear and/or white soap you will
need. Most of our molds are between 3-4 ounces. Protect your work area. Cut
desired amount of soap brick into cubes, and place into a microwave-safe
measuring cup. Have your fragrance (do not use candle fragrance in body care
products), color and mold ready at hand. You will want your mold cavity side
up. Depending on the mold you choose, you may need to put a spoon or even grab
some caps off a few soda bottles to help steady the mold. This way when you
pour the soap in later it won’t run all over. . . which brings up another
point, feel free to cover your work area with brown paper bags or paper
towels. It is soap and cleans up with water but still, less mess is best.
Color & Fragrance: Add fragrance/color soap as indicated in instructions or
project sheet. We use about 6 drops of fragrance per ounce of soap but we are
fragrance divas here. Colors not so much. A little goes a long way so start
with one or two drops and add from there. Remember you can always mix and
match colors for all kinds of shades. Microwave: You’re ready to microwave.
Soap melts at a pretty low temperature and once it starts it goes quick! It
can get really hot so please, please be careful. Place the microwave-safe
measuring cup into microwave and heat for 30 seconds, remove and stir to break
up the bigger blobs. Repeat this now in 10 and then 5 second intervals until
soap is completely melted. Keep an eye on it, if it starts to bubble up, it’s
too hot. If this happens, turn off the microwave, let it cool, (the cup should
be warm, not burning hot to the touch) remove, stir, and place back in
microwave if necessary to finish the melting process. Pour & Remove: Take your
melted soap and slowly pour it into a mold cavity. You want to fill it all the
way to the “top” this will help you when you de-mold the soap. If you want
really pretty soap, you can spritz it with alcohol to remove the bubbles. Let
it cool, and be patient. It can take over an hour to dry. If it’s warm to the
touch, it’s not ready. Once it’s cool, flip the mold over and start to apply
constant, even pressure with thumbs to the backside of the mold. You may need
to gently pull one side of mold away from the soap bar to break air seal. It
takes a little practice, but you’ll get the hang of it. After you admire your
work, go ahead and wrap it tightly in plastic wrap to keep the moisture in
until you are ready to use it or gift it! Tips and Tricks: -Use rubbing
alcohol to remove air bubbles, adhere layers to one another and to spray
objects you want to embed in the soap to prevent air pockets. The alcohol
evaporates from the heat of the soap so there is little residue. -You can re-
melt soap, so save mistakes, scraps and extras. Just be mindful of the
fragrances and start at 5-10 second intervals when re-melting. -Do not move
molds until soap has begun to set or you can create wrinkles in your soap. If
this happens, try to remove them by spraying rubbing alcohol over the wrinkle.
-When layering colors, allow a layer of skin to form on the poured soap to
prevent layered colors from bleeding into each other. Test the layer with the
tip of your finger by gently touching the soap – it should not wiggle, should
not be hot and should feel slightly firm to completely firm. -Soap can take
anywhere from 30-90 minutes to harden so don’t rush it. If it is still warm to
the touch it should not be un-molded yet. It also sets up quicker when you put
it in the refrigerator once it solidifies. HAVE FUN AND EXPERIMENT ON YOUR
OWN! Awesome, fresh, handmade beauty products made totally by you! Adult use
