1. To microwave-safe measuring cup, add 2.3 oz of Premium Ultra White MP Soap Base. Heat in microwave until melted.
2. Fill four cavities of the butterfly mold. Spray with alcohol and allow soap to harden.
3. To microwave-safe measuring cup, add 12 oz of Premium Ultra White MP Soap Base. Heat in microwave until melted.
4. Add 10 ml of fragrance oil and 1/2 tsp of Purple Passion Mica Powder. Stir well. Add more color if a darker shade is desired. Set aside.
5. To microwave-safe measuring cup, add 12 oz of Premium Crystal Clear MP Soap Base. Heat in microwave until melted.
6. Add 10 ml of fragrance oil and 1/8 tsp of Dolphin Blue Mica Powder. Sir well. Add more color if a darker shade is desired.
7. Allow both blue and purple soap to cool to about 135*F. Pour both colors of soap into the loaf mold at the same time, creating a swirl within the mold. Spritz with alcohol and let completely harden.
8. Using a lighter or another method of heat, melt a small spot on the top of the loaf. Place one of the soap butterflies on top of the loaf, placing it over the spot that was melted. Repeat this three more times. Place butterflies an inch apart, alternating opposite sides of the loaf.
9. Spritz with alcohol and sprinkle glitter over the top. Let completely harden.
10. Carefully remove from the mold and slice into four bars with wavy soap cutter.
11. Wrap in airtight packaging and label accordingly.
