Materials
Instructions
Teal Layer:
- Step 1: Add 8 cubes of the soap base into a microwave safe bowl or measuring cup.
- Step 2: Add 1/2 teaspoon of the apple soap scent into the container.
- Step 3: Melt soap cubes in 30 second intervals, stirring after each until completely melted.
- Steps 4-5: Into the container, add 1-2 drops of teal coloring, stirring until desired color is achieved.
- Step 6: Add teal glitter into container.
- Step 7: Pour teal soap mixture into loaf mold.
- Step 8: Spray soap with the rubbing alcohol to prevent air bubbles in soap. Allow to dry completely before adding next layer (approx. 45 minutes). If you blow on the soap and you see ripples, the soap is not hard enough for the next layer.
- Step 9: Completely wash and dry your measuring cup while waiting for the soap to harden as you will need it again.
Yellow Layer:
- Spray the hardened previous layer with rubbing alcohol. This helps the layers adhere to each other.
- Repeat all 9 steps above, replacing the teal colorant and glitter with yellow.
Orange Layer:
- Spray the hardened previous layer with rubbing alcohol. This helps the layers adhere to each other.
- Repeat all 9 steps again, replacing the teal colorant and glitter with orange.
Pink Layer:
- Spray the hardened previous layer with rubbing alcohol. This helps the layers adhere to each other.
- Repeat all 9 steps again, replacing the teal colorant and glitter with pink.
Purple Layer:
- Spray the hardened previous layer with rubbing alcohol. This helps the layers adhere to each other.
- Repeat all 9 steps again, replacing the teal colorant and glitter with purple.
