About this title

Synopsis

Soaps fragrant with cinnamon, "painted" with natural coloring, stamped or laminated, that fizz in the bath, and even have a written message! These 300 beautiful, easy-to-make soaps are gentle on your skin and a magnificent addition to bathroom décor. All use a simple melt and pour technique, and any craft, grocery, health food and drug store will have the supplies you need: a glycerin or coconut soap base, fragrances, additives (such as flowers and green tea), colorants (spices, dried herbs, cosmetic-grade color), and molds. What's really special are these recipes for bee-shaped fruited honey bars; deliciously scented lemon sage scrub; a heart swirl with smaller, decorative soap pieces embedded inside; a French cameo; the leaf-shaped mountain therapy blend with gold luster power; and many more! A Selection of Crafters Choice Book Club.

Reviews

This is a continuation of the projects found in Browning's Melt & Pour Soapmaking, using commercially available soap bases. This book emphasizes soap made with additives such as essential oils, botanicals, spices, and even chocolate. There are also lovely molded soaps that one would hate to destroy by using. All of these soaps can be made using kitchen equipment, and no lye or animal fat is used in the process. Browning's books are always great additions to public libraries.
