I decided to go non traditional with the colours for this years Valentine soaps.
2800g Clear soap base |
Deep brown Mica |
Peacock Mica |
Titanium Di Oxide |
Fragrance oil, we used Forever |
Silicone moulds |
Chopstick for stiring |
IPA for spritzing away bubbles |
Little heart shaped cutter |
Microwavable jugs |
Melt all the clear soap base |
Premix all your colours in a little glycerine to prepare them |
Pour off 300g soap base add 1/2tsp of Deep brown Mica, add fragrance oil, cover with a lid |
Pour off 300g soap base and add 1/2tsp Peacock Mica, add fragrance oil, cover with a lid |
Pour off 300g soap base and leave it clear, add fragrance oil, cover with a lid |
Add the premixed Titanium Di Oxide to the rest of the clear soap base and cover with a lid |
Pour half the brown soap mix into each of your soap moulds and let it go hard |
Take the cookie cutter and cut out your hearts. The hearts should stick to the silicone mould. Pull out the main layer of soap and it will leave the hearts behind (left pic) |
Spritz both the hearts in one mould and the cut out sheet in the other. Take the clear soap base and pour 150g into one of the moulds and then lay your sheet of cut out hearts directly on top of the clear soap. |
Pour the other 150g over the other mould that has the hearts in it. Spritz both lots of soap to remove bubbles |
Leave this to go slightly spongy but not hard, spritz with IPA |
Pour half your peacock soap into each mould, spritz with IPA and leave to go spongy, not hard |
Spritz again with alcohol IPA and then pour half the white soap over one mould and the other half over the other mould. Leave to go hard. |
Cut into squares and wrap in plastic wrap once cool |
