Glycerin Soap Base Clear 4 lb. Melt and pour Natural

• You are bidding on 4 lb. all Natural, Clear Glycerin Soap Base

All soap base’s are not created equal! You might find it cheaper, but it may not be of equal quality.  Also, don’t forget to look at shipping prices.  I use Priority flat rate boxes and envelopes to kept prices down and no added shipping and handling, just the actual cost.  Also, notice that auctions that say FREE SHIPPING is not free at all. I will combine order up to 16 lbs in a flat rate box, so there is only one shipping charge. So go ahead and bid on more that one item, as long as it does not go over 16 lbs.  You may see free shipping on other auctions, but if you figure out the price of the soap per pound you will see they just add the shipping to the price of the soap.

Also, if shipping price does not calulate correct on Ebay invoice I will adjust it.  If I find you payed to much I will refund extra. I alway check shiping charge.

Basic Melt and Pour Instructions:

          The soap base is ready to melt in a double boiler, which I prefer (more even melting at lower temperature) or in a microwave (20-30 seconds spurts at a time until you get familiar with your microwave temperature).  Some microwaves are more powerful than others and you could burn soap by over heating.  

          Next, after soap has melted down you can add cosmetic approved color and/or fragrance if you like.  Stir and pour into plastic molds.  Let set up for about an hour, until solid.  Put into the freezer for about 15 minutes. Take out of the freezer and turn upside down and push on mold with thumbs to release soap from mold.  You can use right away or wrap in saran, stretch, twist extra and cut off excess saran.  Stick a label over cut saran and you have a nice gift to give away! 

          This is only the beginning!!!  There can be endless creativity.   You can layer colors; shred, chop, one color soap and put into a regular mold or log mold and pour another color over.  Always spray soap pieces or layers with Isopropyl alcohol (buy at pharmacy) before you pour more soap over them.  The alcohol enables the two soaps to stick together, otherwise the layers or pieces of soap might split apart after set up. 

          After you get the basics down you can add cosmetic glitter, herbs, pumice, loofha bits, and many other things to the soap. To get additives to float and not sink to the bottom you will let the soap cool a bit.  It is a bit tricky and takes a little practice to find that ‘correct stage’ to pour, so it is not too thick or thin.  Too thin and additives sink to the bottom.  Too thick; difficult to pour into mold.  Don’t forget that you can remelt and try again for practice as long as you are using one color.

          I am always happy to answer questions if you need some help.
