Melt and Pour Soap Base

Melt and pour soap is a base of soap that has already been through a complete saponification process (the chemical reaction that makes lye safe for skin). This is why it only takes an hour or so to cure versus waiting 4-6 weeks.

How to Melt the Soap

To melt the soap base you can use a microwave, double boiler.

Simply slice some soap base into small chunks, similar to diced potatoes, and gently heat until you reach the point where there is just one or two small pieces unmelted. If using a microwave, always have the setting on “low” or “medium low”. Remove from the heat and then gently stir to melt these last little pieces.

Once melted, add colour, then fragrance, and stir to combine well and pour!
