Heat raw soap and melt

• Pouring soap and a knife to crush the soap
• A pot with a lid or bowls in which the soap is melted
• Silicone molds, colors & scents

Cut the cast soap into small pieces and melt them in a container in a water bath or in the microwave. Stir the soap occasionally and make sure that the melting temperature does not exceed 55-65°. (Otherwise, your soap may start to sweat or bend afterwards.)

Pouring soap can also be melted in the microwave with a lid. The temperature here must not exceed 55-65°. Therefore, it is best to set 90-360 watts and repeat this until the soap is melted with a lid. However, the water bath is recommended.

Color the soap and add fragrance

You can now add the colors to the liquid soap. You can put the soap in different bowls to get different colors.

Shake the paint vigorously beforehand. If you add less, you get pastel colors. Depending on the amount of soap and the color you want, you may need more or less paint.

Slowly stir the dye into the soap with a wooden stick or similar.

Then you can stir your favorite scent into the soap. You do that just like the ones with the paints.

With our fragrances you need between 0.5 and 2% of the soap mass. But everyone feels differently.

Pour soap into the mold and refine it

When your soap is mixed, you can pour it into the silicone molds.

Your soap will be extraordinary if you add flowers or glitter to the soap. Color pigments/glitter can be stirred into the melted soap or sprinkled over it at the end.

However, also keep in mind that not all flowers or herbs will retain their color. Some will turn brown in the soap and others will sink deeper than others.

You can also pour different layers. Just make sure that the bottom layer is completely cooled and the top layer is not too hot. You can also spray ethyl alcohol in between. This will help the layers stick together in case you want to cut your soap.

If there are small bubbles on the top, spray lightly with the disinfectant spray to remove them. Then the surface will be really smooth.

Let finished soap dry and pack it

Let the soap cool at room temperature until it is completely cold and hard. Depending on the size, the soap bars will take different amounts of time to harden.

Your soaps now only need a pretty packaging. You can wrap them with a banderole or great ribbons, for example.

But it's best to wrap them in cellophane foil or cellophane bags to prevent moisture loss and to enjoy your homemade soap for a long time.
