This soap is wonderful. Those who wish to customize soap - without undergoing the arduous and complex process of making it from scratch - would do well to try this. It's so easy! Once you slice the soap into chunks, you can melt it in the microwave or a double boiler. You can (but do not have to) add all kinds of fun things to jazz it up: fragrances, essential oils, dyes, and even exfoliating ingredients all make awesome additions. The concoction is then poured into a mold (I use silicone molds, as they make it easy to pop the soap out once it is set) and left to firm up overnight.
I have given these soaps as gifts to family, friends, and coworkers. They are always impressed at how charming and professional my creations look, but what they don't know is how easy and fun it is to make them.
PS This soap lathers really well and leaves skin smooth and soft.

Not perfect, but still pretty good
This was my second batch of melt & pour soap (my first being with Life of the Party glycerin soap base). Overall, I liked it much better than the glycerin soap, but I still found myself somewhat disappointed by some of the aspects of the base.Half of the soap base made 5 small bars (see pic). I added dried lavender buds, orange zest, and essential oils to the batch, but no other oils or butters. I figured the goats milk would make it pretty soft on the skin already. The melting process was easy, and I liked it better than glycerin because it wasn't so sticky and messy. The soap didn't congeal around the bowl, and it was easy to stir in the additions and pour it into the mold. The smell wasn't too strong, though still distinctly soapy.The major problems I have with the melt & pour are the ingredients & the texture of the bars. The stuff is loaded with sulfates & propylene glycol--things I try to avoid by making my own soaps. If I wanted all those additives in my soap, I'd just buy it at the store. In addition, the soap bars come out really soft, much softer than I like in a homemade bar. I worry that the soap with melt quickly and be used up in no time. If I had used a more complex mold, I might have destroyed the design by popping it out of the mold, since the bars were so soft. I let them cure overnight but they never hardened up. Even after a couple weeks, the bars I have left are soft.The redeeming quality is the finished bar's soft lather. It feels quite luxurious when washing! It foams up into a soft, smooth lather that I really like in a body soap bar. View the video and see my hand washing test for a better idea of the finished product.
