How to Make Soap

1. Prepare the base. Cut open the packaging with scissors and remove the base. Cut it into smaller pieces to reduce melting time.

2. Melt. A double boiler or water bath is recommended. The base can also be melted in a microwave. Do not exceed 72 °C during heating, as the base may dry out and turn yellow.

3. Add your ingredients. Add soap-safe colourants, fragrance oils or other additives, following their usage recommendations. Stir slowly and thoroughly until evenly distributed.

4. Pour into a mould. Allow the soap to cool completely and harden before removing it from the mould.

Caution: melted soap base is hot.

Storage

Store in a cool, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
