What is Glycerin Soap?

It depends on who you talk to as to what it's called. It's easiest to call it glycerin soap, but it's technically called Melt and Pour soap.

So what is it? It's basically a soap base that you cut into chunks, melt until it's liquid, add fragrance oil and colorants, pour into a mold, and wait until it hardens. Sounds easy, right? Yeah, it does, but it's not as easy or simple as it looks.

Is it good for your skin? Of course it is, provided the soapmaker uses high quality ingredients and knows what they are doing.

How do you know what quality ingredients are? You research, research, and then research some more. You continuously do your homework, learning about new ingredients and testing your product until you get it right.

In the next few posts I'll be discussing some different soap bases, ingredients, and where to get your ingredients.

Updates Coming Soon!

I have a quite a few updates to do here in the next few days. I will be changing things up a bit on the sidebar and I'll be adding new links to other WAHM sites and blogs.

Please stay tuned & be patient as I make my changes. Thanks for reading!
