I love making soap at home and over the last handful of years, I’ve made a lot! From simple dried lavender soap and coffee soap recipes to more elaborate exfoliating pink salt soap and layered hibiscus soap, to name a few. And I never intend on calling it quits. Making soap at home is far too fun and creative with a melt and pour soap base!
In fact, if it weren’t for discovering all-natural melt and pour soap bases, I wouldn’t have a single soap recipe to share. As I talk about in my soap making beginner guide, I initially felt utterly deflated after reading how I needed to spend a few hundred dollars on equipment and supplies to make soap at home. Not to mention that I also had to find ample space to cure my homemade soap bars for weeks.
And all the safety guidelines about making soap with lye scared the wits out of me with a new baby on the way!
It wasn’t until I discovered a simplified way to make soap at home that all of my soap-making dreams came true. Choosing a melt and pour soap base allowed me to jump through all the hurdles, leaving my worries about lye behind, greatly, and I mean greatly, reducing the cost of getting started. And as for space for curing- what space? When you make soap with a soap base, the cure time is in hours, not weeks!!
