Instructions
Cut the melt and pour soap base into small cubes so they melt faster.
Add them to your double boiler on low to medium heat (basically an aluminum or pyrex recipient in a pan filled with warm water)
Add the shea butter and continue steering until the soap base is melted.
Once melted, remove from the heat.
Add the clay that has been mixed with the vegetable glycerin so there are no lumps, mix well.
Add essential oils if desired, mix well.
Pour in the silicone mold straight away.
Spray pure alcohol on top of the soap to get rid of the bubbles if any.
Let dry and cool down for 24h hours before un-molding. Voila, your melt and pour shea butter soap is ready to use!
