Directions:
NOTE: If you are making these products for sale, good manufacturing practices recommend you wear a hairnet, gloves and a mask. We also recommend a clean apron and workspace. - In a plastic beaker, melt 1 oz. of soap with 0.25 oz. Dark Gold Shimmer Soap Color Bar. Stir once melted.
- Place silicone mold on jelly roll pan or cookie sheet. This gives stability if the mold needs to be moved.
- Spritz inside of each cavity with rubbing alcohol. Using a plastic dropper, add color to the leaves on each tree. It works best if the soap is a little hotter and thinner to pipe. Between piping, place dropper into a cup of hot water to keep soap flowing freely.
- Spritz soap with rubbing alcohol and let soap harden. To quicken the process, place mold into freezer for about 10 minutes.
- In another plastic beaker, melt 1 oz. soap with 0.25 oz. Evergreen Green Mica Soap Color Bar.
- Using a clean dropper, apply green color to branches, trunk and border. Spritz after each tree is filled to pop any air bubbles that formed.
- Let soap completely harden. Place in freezer, if necessary, to speed up process.
- Cut up remainder of Australian Tea Tree soap and place in microwave-safe measuring cup. Heat in microwave until completely melted.
- Add 9.5 ml Tea Tree Essential Oil and mix into melted soap.
- Spritz soap in mold generously with alcohol. Once melted soap has cooled to 125°, pour into mold.
- Spritz the top of soap, again, with alcohol to release any surface air bubbles. Let harden.
- Remove soap from mold and cut on scored lines.
- Package as desired.
- Label product accordingly.
To Use: Lather onto wet skin and rinse with warm water.
