Equipment

Soap mould

Microwave Safe Bowl

Stirring stick

Brush or Sprayer for mica

Ingredients

500g Transparent soap base

4 to 8 drops of Soap colour – Deep sea green

1 to 5 ml of Rainforest Fragrance (depends upon fragrance and how strong you want it)

Mermaid Blue Mica for Dusting.

Follow these steps:

• 1

  Cut 500g of Melt and Pour Transparent soap into cubes.

• 2

  In a large microwave safe bowl place the cubes in the microwave for 30 second intervals until fully melted.

• 3

  Mix in a small amount of colour (4-8 drops) and fragrance (up to 5m) until the desired scent and colour is achieved. Mix using the stirring sticks supplied, ensuring the soap base is mixed throughly.

• 4

  Pour the soap mixture into the soap mould, do not overfill as it will make it difficult to remove soaps when solid. Leave to set in a dry place for several hours.

• 5

  When solid remove from mould carefully. (can take up to 8 hours, preferably leave overnight)

• 6

  Note: Mica can be brushed or sprayed on using a Mica Sprayer, on top of the soaps once they have set for a more interesting colour way. Hint : Don’t over heat because bubbles will form which are difficult to get rid of without adding rubbing alcohol.
