This dreamy ombré stylus Cold Process Soap Loaf features Cocoa Butter and Apricot Kernel Oil, and as I could n’t decide whether to use Pink Himalayan Salt or Melt & Pour Soap berries to decorate the top, I used half of each ! Just delete whichever you do n’t want to use from the streetcar items !
The key to this type of layer is to ensure you have a firm hound and that the aroma does n’t seize the soap – sol I mix to light/medium trace and wait a little while it sets up a bite in the mold before creating the valley and hills for the next layer. By the prison term you get to the final layer it is courteous and firm to allow a beautiful, ‘mountainy ‘ textured top.

If you are a beginner, we recommend you make a few batches before attempting this soap so that you know what to expect. For how to make soap from Scratch, please see our Cold Process Soapmaking Instructions. You can also watch Soap Queen’s You Tube Series on Cold Process Soapmaking.
If you are making soap berries to decorate the top of the soap, make these in gain, or whilst the lye water is cooling.
Set out equipment and ingredients, including preparing the tinge and jugs, scales etc.
Bring the soap to a light trace, add the 2 teaspoons or 4g Candy Pink Mica dispersed in 3 teaspoons water system or oil and then you are ready to divide the soap.
now … prep all four jugs of lightly traced soap – add 350g into each.
Have spatulas ready to move the soap a little to ensure it does n’t start setting up between pours .
JUG ONE : BASE LAYER/FIRST POUR : Add an extra ¼ or ½ teaspoon of disperse pink mica liquid and stir to combine.
now add 11g aroma to the jug and manually stir well to combine.
Pour into the mold.
Once the level is holding its shape, use the binding of the spoon to create some hills and valleys in the layer.
This should now be ready for the future layer – however, if the shape is not holding you will need to wait a little while and then try again.
Do n’t forget to keep the soap in the other three jugs feasible by lento stirring whilst it waits !

JUG TWO : 2ND LAYER/SECOND POUR : Do n’t add any color to this layer ! Use it as is : )
Do add 11g bouquet to the imprison and manually bustle well to combine.
Pour into the mold.
( As you can see from the graphic, I like to make this soap by pouring the top three layers from side to side, rather than along the length of the cast ) .
As previously, once the layer is holding its shape, use the back of the smooch to create some hills and valleys in the layer .
Do n’t forget to keep each jug ‘s contents ‘loose ‘ by moving the soap with the spatula whilst it sits and waits .
JUG THREE : 3RD LAYER/THIRD POUR : Add 2 teaspoons dispersed Titanium Dioxide mixture and stimulate well to combine.
Add 11g bouquet to the jug and manually raise well to combine.
Pour into the mildew .
JUG FOUR : TOP LAYER/FOURTH POUR : Add 4 teaspoons dispersed Titanium Dioxide mixture and stir well to combine.
Add 11g bouquet to the jug and manually arouse well to combine.
Pour into the mold .
Allow the soap to sit to firm up a little and adjust the surface to your prefer shape .
Set the decorations on the soap.
I did not gel this soap as I had Melt & Pour Soap decorations on top, so popped it into the electric refrigerator for several hours .
Leave in the shape for respective days and then unmould.
I leave it for another few days anterior to slicing.
Turn the soap onto its english to slice to avoid creating drag marks from the salt crystals.
Leave 4 to 6 weeks minimum anterior to use.
