Method:
Full written instructions are included with your kit - this tutorial has a brief overview to explain the graphics
Set out all the ingredients etc
Prepare the powdered colours as described - squish and squeeze to remove any dry spots.
Add sufficient colour to colour the first first pour to a good deep colour.
Once combined, add a quarter of the fragrance and stir well.
Prepare a prop and base support for the mould and place on a diagonal.
Close up of the height suggested. Don't forget the base support (which you cannot see in this graphic).
Otherwise the base of the mould will bow down with the weight and heat of the soap.
Check the first layer is firm.
SPRAY THE SURFACE OF THE YELLOW SOAP BEFORE POURING THE GREEN LAYER.
Once firm, adjust the angle of the mould.
Then melt the next portion of soap, colour green and scent using the method described previously.
Spray again to remove surface bubbles.
Allow to set up as previously.
Adjust the angle of the mould again, and repeat for the blue layer.
Once set, remove the prop and flat board entirely and sit the mould flat on the bench.
Repeat the process for the final purple layer, do not forget to spray the blue layer before pouring the purple over the top.
All to set up for several hours or overnight. You can see the layers through the mould, and how beautiful the design shows,
light the Northern Lights in the northern hemisphere skies.
Unmould and slice with a non serrated blade
We recommend wrapping the soaps, or store in an airtight jar before use.
