 Layering Glycerin Melt and Pour Soap

Enlarge Image
1. Place soap in a double boiler or microwave. Heat slowly and avoid burning. Once soap is liquid proceed to the next step.

2. Add up to a maximum of 1/2 ounce fragrance oil. (only use fragrances safe for soap and skincare products)

3. Separate different color soaps into different plastic or glass mixing containers. Add desired cosmetic coloring to each. Add slowly and do not over color.

4. Add additives if desired.

5. Pour first layer into soap mold.

6. Allow to naturally harden.

7. Once the soap is hard, fine mist spray with rubbing alcohol and pour next layer. Repeat with additional layers as desired.

7. To un-mold, place mold (with soap in it) in freezer for 20 minutes. When the mold returns to room air, it will expand as it warms and the soap will drop out. For really hard to un-mold soap, run warm water over the back of the mold.

8. Wrap in air tight cello or shrink wrap.
