Handmade soap contains natural glycerin, which has an extraordinary moisturizing effect and is very gentle to the skin and non-irritating. The foam is fine and rich. In addition to its amazing cleaning power, it will not damage the skins stratum corneum at all. This is because the glycerin contained in it can form a protective film while cleaning dirt to protect the skin. Many people may think that DIY handmade soap requires a lot of materials and tools, and the steps are too complicated to do. In fact, it does not take much trouble to make a simple handmade soap to meet your own needs. All you need is a soap base and one or two bottles of essential oils. Let’s take a look at how to make a piece of handmade soap yourself.
DIY handmade soap materials:
Soap base 100g, I use transparent drops; essential oil.
DIY handmade soap steps:
Chop the soap base into small pieces.
Put the cut soap base into the microwave oven over medium-low heat and heat for 60 seconds.
At the same time, prepare the additives. I added essential oil and honey, and the mold must also be prepared. In fact, the mold is not mysterious at all. I used a mooncake box.
At this time, the soap base has been heated to a liquid state. After stirring thoroughly with a stir stick, you can add essential oils.
First add lavender essential oil and drop 3 drops.
Add ylang-ylang essential oil, add 1-2 drops, because it is very rich, a bit like cologne, and you can even save money on perfume by using it! Finally, add honey, how much you add depends on your preference.
The next step is to stir thoroughly and then pour it into the mold.
Pour into the mooncake box mold.
After cold cutting, peel it off gently, and it will look like this, haha.
If you can find a mold and put a little more thought into it, you can DIY the following cute handmade soap!
