A soap valentine is a great gift for Valentine's Day. Of course, you can buy heart-shaped soap in a specialized store, but it is much more pleasant to receive a handmade gift.
It is necessary
- - transparent base for soap making (210 g);
- - jojoba oil (10 drops);
- - rose essential oil (3 drops);
- - red mother-of-pearl powder (pinch);
- - red and pink sequins;
- - heart-shaped silicone mold;
- - alcohol in the spray;
- - cookie cutter in the form of a small heart;
- - wide and shallow container for workpieces (3 pcs.);
- - wooden sticks;
- - knife;
- - disposable cups.
Instructions
Step 1
To begin with, we cut the base for soap making into small pieces, put them in glass dishes and place them in the microwave. When the mass becomes liquid, pour into a disposable cup 40 g, cover the rest with cling film.
Step 2
Pour pink sparkles into a glass with a soap base in such an amount that the mass takes on a rich color, mix the ingredients thoroughly with a wooden stick.
Step 3
Pour the resulting mixture into a wide, low form, sprinkling it with alcohol.
Step 4
While the pink soap blank hardens, pour another 50 g of a transparent base into a clean glass, pouring red sparkles into it. We alter the mixture until it becomes homogeneous.
Step 5
Pour red soap into a wide mold and treat with a small amount of alcohol.
Step 6
Pour another 50 g of the molten base into a clean glass, add a red pearl powder to it, thoroughly mixing the mixture with a wooden stick.
Step 7
Pour the resulting mass into a wide, shallow mold, sprinkling it with alcohol.
Step 8
When the multi-colored blanks harden and become solid, we take them out of the molds. We take cookie cutters and squeeze out small hearts from the soap layers (7 pieces of each color).
Step 9
We put the hearts in a silicone mold in the shape of a heart and mix thoroughly with each other so that they are evenly distributed over the colors. We process hearts with alcohol for degreasing.
Step 10
We heat the remains of the soap base in the microwave oven, add essential oils to it and mix thoroughly. Then pour the mixture into a mold with many hearts and sprinkle with alcohol.
Step 11
When the soap has hardened, remove it from the mold. A romantic do-it-yourself gift for February 14 is ready.
