Basic Soap Making Directions

1) Put on your safety goggles & neoprene gloves, combine your sodium hydroxide &
your liquid, stir completely. Set the lye aside and allow it to cool between 100 - 125 degrees.

2) Combine your oils & heat. Temperature of oils needs to be between 100 - 125
degrees. If you are coloring your soap, add it to your oils at this time.

3) When both your lye & your oils are at approximately the same temperature (100 -
125 degrees) you need to combine them. Use precautions to avoid splashing.
Stir until the mixture traces. (You can use your stick blender to speed up this
process).

4) Add your fragrance/essential oils and incorporate them into soap completely, then
pour your soap into your molds.
