Refreshing Sweet Orange Soap

Make a refreshing soap bar from our clear melt and pour soap base and fresh orange. All the steps are clearly laid out for you.

YOU WILL NEED:

• 1KG of transparent melt and pour 
• Grated rind from 2 oranges
• Sweet orange essential oil
• Rectangular mould
  
• Rubbing alcohol spray
• melting equipment - for microwave or double saucepan
• BUY THE KIT

STEP 1

Chop the soap into small chunks, around 2cm square. 

STEP 2

Melt in a double saucepan.
Alternativately melt the base in a microwave for about 3 minutes, in 30 second blasts until melted throughout.
.

STEP 3

Grate the rind of the fruit on the coarse side of the grater.

Once your soap base has melted, add the grated rinds as well as the essential oil (at a rate of 2.5mL per Kg). Mix gently to avoid bubbles. 

STEP 4

Once mixed, pour the soap into your mould - if any bubbles are present a light spray with rubbing alcohol can help to remove them. 

STEP 5

Let your soap cool then pop out of the mould. Resist the urge to touch it! Clear soap base is not very forgiving when it comes to fingerprints.
