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.

So gentle!

"What a great MP soap base for beginners! Easy to cut, melts smoothly, and accepts up to 5% of my favorite fragrances or essential oils. Definitely one of my Go-To products."

I love it. It produces

"I love it. It produces a creamy, soft and rich lather! I hope it goes on sale again."

Wonderful Strong Scent

"This is a beautiful, strong scent; a little goes a long way. Very deep and heady. Not much like rose, though. Pairs well with both citrus and woodsy scents. When I first got it I wasn't super pleased but it grew in me quickly. It sticks well with M&P and also worked well in a conditioner bar. I plan on purchasing again soon!"

— Oliver (5/5)
