Melt and Pour Soap Base
Antoinette ThwaitesWhat is Melt and Pour Soap Base?
Melt and Pour soap base is a pre-made soap base composed of fatty acids, glycerin, and other natural ingredients. It is specifically designed to simplify the soap-making process. This type of soap base has already undergone the saponification process, so you don't need to handle lye or go through the complex steps of traditional soap making. Melt and Pour allows soap makers to simply melt the base, add their choice of fragrances, colorants, and other additives, and then pour it into molds to set.

Quick Process: There is no cure time needed for Melt and Pour soap, which means you can use your soap almost immediately after it sets. This contrasts with traditional soap-making methods that require weeks of curing time.
Customization: Our Melt and Pour soap bases allow for extensive customization. You can add various ingredients such as essential oils, herbs, exfoliants, and colorants to create unique and personalized soap bars.
