Step 1: Preparing the soap base
To start your project, cut the transparent soap base into small cubes. These are easier and more even to melt, which guarantees you a perfect result.
Step 2: Melting the soap
Pour the cubes of soap base into a universal melting pot and heat them slowly. Use a thermometer to check that the temperature does not exceed 60 degrees to ensure the quality of the soap.
Step 3: Add fragrance and colour
Now comes the exciting part. When the soap has completely melted, add your desired fragrance oil. You can also add a nourishing skin oil to make the soap particularly pleasant for the skin. Then use green soap colour to create the typical Christmas tree look. You can adjust the intensity of the colour as you wish.
Step 4: Pour into the Christmas tree mould
Now carefully pour the coloured soap mixture into the silicone mould. Make sure to pour slowly to avoid air bubbles and to achieve a smooth surface. Leave the soap to harden for several hours. Even hardening is crucial for the appearance and durability of the soap.
Step 5: Demoulding and packaging
Once the soap is solid, carefully remove it from the Christmas tree silicone mould. For a particularly attractive presentation, you can place the soap in a metal tin with some wood wool. This pretty packaging protects the soap and makes it the perfect Christmas gift.
With these instructions, you can quickly create beautiful Christmas tree soaps that will bring a touch of Christmas into your home. Experiment with different fragrance and colour combinations and let your creativity run wild!
