Step 1

Prepare the lye solution by weighing the water and lye in two separate containers. Pour the lye into the water, carefully mix in a well-ventilated area and set aside to cool while you prepare your oils.

Step 2

Melt the Coconut 76° Oil, Mango Butter and Palm Oil in double boiler or microwave until melted.

Step 3

Add the Olive Oil and stir. Set oils aside.

Step 4

While lye water is cooling, prepare your colors.

Step 5

In first mixing bowl or pour pitcher, place 1 tsp. of the activated charcoal with a few drops of your melted mixed oils and stir. This helps break down clumps of color when adding to the soap batter. Set aside.

Step 6

In second container, add 1 tsp. of the Neon Pink Powder with a few drops of your melted mixed oils to break up the color. Set aside.

Step 7

In third container, add 1 tsp. of the Woodland Green Pigment with a few drops of your melted mixed oils to break up the color. Set aside.

Step 8

When lye water has cooled, pour lye into liquid oils and hand stir for a minute with the stick blender. Then blend with small bursts and stir until it is emulsified to a light trace.

Step 9

Add fragrance oil and hand stir for a minute. Then, use a stick blender until it is completely blended.

Step 10

Pour 8-10 oz. of soap batter into container with the Woodland Green Pigment. Stir until completely blended.

Step 11

Pour 4-6 oz. of soap batter into the container with the Activated Charcoal and stir until completely blended.

Step 12

Pour the rest of the batter into the container with the Neon Pink color and stir until completely blended.

Step 13

Place the silicone mold on a flat surface.

Step 14

Pour the pink batter into the mold slowly, making sure not to get any on the sides of the mold.

Step 15

Holding the container with the activated charcoal batter about 12 inches above the mold, pour the batter making a stream into the soap. Make 8-10 spots where you let the batter stream down. Take a skewer and go back and forth once - do not over swirl.

Step 16

Tap mold gently on counter.

Step 17

Gently pour the green batter over the top making the "rind". If you like, you can add a touch of black and swirl on top.

Step 18

Let sit for 24-48 hours in mold.

Step 19

Remove soap from mold and slice into bars. If necessary, you can put loaf in freezer for 45 minutes to help remove from the mold.

Step 20

Let soap cure for 4-6 weeks.

Step 21

Label product accordingly.
