This is a pumped up but simple uncoloured, Melt and Pour Soap which is suitable for little ones as well as grown ups who want a gentle, cleansing natural soap bar. The Shea Butter Melt and Pour Soap Base is enhanced with natural additives to make it that much more special. Soothing and moisturising, it's pure and natural. I left it uncoloured for my "grown up" soap, but I also make this for gifts with the "other option" of colour and fragrance which is great is baby baskets.

Method:
Assemble ingredients, soap base, mould and tools.

Melt the diced soap base in the microwave in short bursts of 30 to 40 seconds. Check, stir and repeat until the base has melted.
Pour the Essential Oils and additives into the melted soap base.
Stir gently, but thoroughly to ensure all liquid additives are combined well.
Carefully pour the soap into the mould and allow to set up.
Unmould after a couple of hours and then wrap as usual.
Repeat to make a second batch of 3 bars.
