Step 1: Cut a soap base into chunks that are easy to melt. Chop up about 1 lb (0.45 kg) of soap or glycerine into cubes 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) in size. These small pieces melt evenly so your finished batter is less likely to be chunky. Using small chunks also prevents the batter from burning while you stir it.

Step 2: Heat and stir the soap constantly until it melts. Heat the soap on a stovetop or in your microwave to about 120 °F (49 °C). Move the melting soap around with a rubber spatula to help it melt. Don’t let it sit still for more than 30 seconds or else it may burn. Stir it until it reaches a smooth consistency.

Step 3: Mix in essential oils and other ingredients to make your soap fragrant. Stir a few drops of any essential oil into your batter to customize it. Flowers and herbs are some alternatives to essential oils. Try using ingredients like powdered beet root or sandalwood. Ingredients like vanilla, honey, and brown sugar can also give your soap a pleasant quality that makes it difficult to put down.

Step 4: Pour the soap into the mold and spray IPA to remove the bubbles.

Final Step: Remove the soap from the mold once it has dried. your soap is ready to use now!
