Fall Soap Recipe Idea

Here is a beautiful Melt and Pour Soap that is ideal for the crisp Autumn weather.

Materials:

• Oval Milky Way Soap Mold (MW1109)  NOTE–the soap example in our picture was made using a different mold
• Mini Cookie Cutter in the shape of a leaf
• White Melt and Pour Soap Base
• Yellow Oxide
• Mini Measuring Spoon
• Eye Dropper
• Autumn Splendor Fragrance Oil
• Petroleum Jelly or Vegetable Oil
• Spray Bottle of Rubbing Alcohol

Recipe Directions:

1. Prepare the Soap Mold by lightly coating the inside surfaces with petroleum jelly or vegetable oil, so that the soap will release easily when cooled.
2. Melt 1 ounce of White Soap Base using your preferred method.
3. Once the soap is completely melted, use the Eye Dropper and gently mix in 2-5 drops of Fall Foliage Fragrance Oil to the Soap.
4. Completely stir in one mini measuring spoonful of Yellow Oxide.
5. Slowly pour the soap into the Soap Mold.  NOTE–the soap will not fill the mold completely.
6. Lightly spray the top of the soap bar with Rubbing Alcohol to get rid of any unwanted bubbles.
7. About 10-20 minutes after pouring the yellow soap (the soap should be solid, but still warm), gently pop the soap out of the mold.
8. Take the Leaf Cookie Cutter and cut out two leaf shapes.
9. Very carefully push the leaf shapes out of the oval soap piece.
10. Set the leaf cutouts aside.
11. Take the oval soap and place it back in the soap mold.  Push down on the soap to form a seal with the mold.
12. Melt 1/2 ounce of White Soap Base using your preferred method.
13. Completely melt this white soap and allow it to cool to a lower temperature (without being chunky).  If the soap is too hot, it might melt the yellow soap.
14. Pour the white soap into the leaf holes until it is the same height as the yellow soap.
15. Allow the soap to cool for a couple of hours and then take it out of the mold.

This soap idea is great because it is a 2 for 1 deal!  There’s the two-toned soap bar for the master bath and two little guest leaf soaps that could go in the guest bathroom or powder room!
