Details

Cut soap base into small pieces, and melt in the microwave at 30-second intervals (or use a double boiler), stirring until fully liquefied. Once melted, add cosmetic color, fragrance, and other skin-safe additives—this base can hold up to 5% total additives—then pour the mixture into a Crafter’s Choice mold and spritz the surface with rubbing alcohol to reduce bubbles. Allow the soap to cool completely before unmolding, then wrap it in airtight plastic wrap to preserve freshness. Melted soap is hot and should be used with caution; recommended for ages 15 and older.

Love this product

"I bought this product to for my husband in his shaving mug. He loves it! It lathers great, leaves his skin soft. No need to add scent - love the honey smell. Would recommend."

— Debbie (5/5)

Loved this MP base

"I took a chance ordering this and glad I did because it by far exceeded my expectations. Does't really small like beer as much as you smell the honey and vanilla that makes up the ale. I Love how this preformed, melts quickly and doesn't skin up immediately, I had working time to add my additives and fragrance (if i decided to scent it). The scent alone is intoxicating love it. Very easy to work with and pour."

Smells nothing like beer to us!

"This base smells NOTHING like beer. My husband and I were so shocked. We ever tried adding a beer fragrance to it - and that didn't help. We do not recommend this base!"

— Marie (1/5)

The best so fa. . .

"I picked this by mistake on one of my orders. when i received i was so mad at myself for picking the wrong honey MP because of the beer in it. my customers where asking of honey soap and thats when i decided to try it. . . . . i just fell in love with the scent and the thickness, no need to add any fragrance as it comes with a natural calming scent to it. my customers and i just love it ever since and it has an amazing bubbles."

— Fatima (5/5)

Great fragrance by itself

"This was one of my newest additions to my line of MP soap and I was a little hesitant, as customers are sometimes fickle about beer/ale based products. I immediately fell in love with its smooth melt, and especially its fragrance alone. I have added fragrances in other batches, but for the majority of the time, I leave this one as it is, and the customers love it!"

— Stephanie (5/5)

My first review on this site. . . .

"This is my first review on this site and not because I'm a first time shopper here - but more that I really love this melt and pour base and wanted to review it. When cut - it's a little more sticky in the center than other melt/ pour bases but the feel, the scent, and the lather is incredible. I made Oatmeal, Milk, & Honey - honeycomb bars, massage bars, sugar scrub cubes, and bath truffles with this and WSP Oatmeal soap base - I didn't need to add scent to the honey ale beer portion as it has it's own wonderful scent that adds something so special to the oatmeal, milk, & honey. I will forever keep this in stock!!"

— Laura (5/5)

Surprising and Lovely!!

"I took a chance ordering this and glad I did because it by far exceeded my expectations. Does't really small like beer as much as you smell the honey and vanilla that makes up the ale. I went through the whole 2 pounds in a a few days as my customers love it too. This is going to be a big summer hit!"

— Deana (5/5)

Great!

"I wanted to try this base because of the appeal. I do mainly CP soap but dabble with MP. This base smells great on it's own. I did a fragranced batch but I may just use as is and not fragrance. The soap itself has a great lather and feel and very little sweating! I'm here now to buy more!"

Q&A

Is this safe for pets?: We would recommend talking to your veterinarian to see if the ingredients are safe for pets.
I've made quite a few batches of soap with this base (which I LOVE!) adding just a bit of fragrance oil. I always get consistently clear bars. However, this latest batch all came out cloudy, although I didn't change a thing in my recipe or process. The only difference I can think of is that my drying rack is near a vent which is now blowing air conditioning as the weather has recently gotten warm. Could the cooler temps in my shop be the problem?: The air conditioner blowing on your soap may be the same as placing the soap in the refrigerator. This can cause cloudiness in your soap. If you are sure you are not using any different fragrance that might cause the soap to be cloudy, you can try moving the soap away from the vent and see if that might help.
How does this base work with colors? I was thinking about a gold, black, and red.: The only color you may have difficulty with would be the red. Since the soap is already a golden color, it can be made a darker gold. Adding black should come out fine. You may need to experiment getting a shade of red.
Is this legal to sell in a storefront since it will not be consumed? This may be a silly question but I just wanted to make sure before I place it on my display rack. Thanks!: Yes, this is legal to sell in your storefront. The natural chemical reaction of making soap alters the beverage alcohol from its original form making it legal to sell the end product.
Any suggestions on fragrance oils for this base?: Actually, this soap has an awesome scent by itself. There is fragrance already added. You could add a very small amount of something spicy, possibly a pumpkin or clove but we would recommend smelling the soap first. You may find it's great as is!
