Step 1

In plastic beaker, add 2 oz. of cut up clear soap base. Heat in microwave for 20 seconds or until melted.

Step 2

Add 1/2 teaspoon of the ultra sparkle white mica powder. Mix well.

Step 3

Spritz the inside of plastic mold with alcohol. Using the plastic dropper, pipe the white soap into the outline, face and zig-zag on arms and legs. Once soap hardens, more soap can be piped in to make a deeper color. If adding more color, spritz with alcohol before applying soap.

Step 4

If soap starts to harden, remelt briefly in microwave. To prevent soap from hardening in the dropper, place in cup of hot water when not in use. Be sure to squeeze any excess water from dropper before using. When finished, set remaining soap aside.

Step 5

In plastic beaker, add 0.30 oz. fragrance mixed with 0.30 oz. stabilizer. Mix and let sit for two minutes.

Step 6

Cut up 10 oz. of clear soap and place in microwave-safe measuring cup. Add 0.15 oz. of brown color block and heat in microwave until melted.

Step 7

Add fragrance mixture to soap and mix well.

Step 8

Spritz the white soap inside the mold generously with rubbing alcohol.

Step 9

When liquid brown soap cools to 125-130º F, carefully pour into each mold cavity.

Step 10

Lightly mist the top of the melted soap with rubbing alcohol and let soap harden.

Step 11

If soap is hard to unmold, place mold in freezer for 30 minutes. Remove from fridge and let sit on counter for 5 minutes. Press gently on mold to remove soaps.

Step 12

If desired, repeat above steps to make second set of soaps. Leftover white soap can be remelted if soap remains.

Step 13

Wrap soaps in plastic wrap or other airtight packaging.

Step 14
