Soap Making Tips
You can make your soaps from soap base or from white bar soap.
There are 2 methods for this. You can cut and color the white bar soap, which you cut into small pieces first, by melting it in the bain-marie method as in soap base. Secondly, you can grate the white bar soap without melting it and add some water to it. This will form a dough. Then you can color it as desired and place it in the mold.
- You can buy soap bases in various colors or buy a transparent soap base and put various herbs in it.
- Immediately after preparing your soap base and pouring it into molds, bubbles may form on the surface. You can extinguish the bubbles on the surface by using spray cologne.
