Components


Transparent and white soap base. Red and yellow dyes. Dyes must be those that do not migrate in the finished soap. Cosmetic fragrance for your taste, here - Duchess. Additionally, you need to take care of the alcohol. This is the only ingredient that cannot be purchased in soap making stores. Regular vodka will do instead, but you need to pour it into a spray bottle for easy spraying. Of the tools needed for soap making, use the following:

needed for soap making


Silicone forms. These can be either special molds for soap making or regular baking molds. Knife and board for cutting soap base. Plastic glasses. It is easier to wash off the soap base from them than from glass ones. But disposable cups will not work, as they will not withstand the high temperature of the molten base. Plastic or wooden sticks.In order to melt the base, you need a microwave oven. You need to set it to medium or minimum power. At maximum power, the base will melt unevenly. In two glasses, cut approximately equal amounts of clear and white soap base into cubes.

The first thing you need to do in the microwave is a glass with a transparent base. You need to melt the base gradually, that is, every 30-35 seconds you need to take the glass out of the microwave and check the condition of the base. Under no circumstances should you bring it to a boil, otherwise the soap will lose its caring properties. When the base melts and becomes liquid and homogeneous, add red dye and fragrance to it and mix.

Pour part of the base into molds in a thin layer and leave it to cool. Make sure the previous layer is completely cured before pouring the next layer. When you are sure that the red base has set, melt the white base, add the yellow dye and fragrance to it and stir.
