Frequently asked questions
What is shea butter melt and pour soap base?
A vegetable-derived, opaque melt and pour base containing shea butter, made from natural ingredients and free from synthetic surfactants and MPG. Its very high glycerin content gives a smooth, conditioning skin feel.
How do I use a melt and pour soap base?
Cut it into small cubes, melt gently in short bursts in a microwave or bain-marie without letting it boil, stir in fragrance and colour, then pour into moulds. A spritz of alcohol clears surface bubbles; unmould once fully set and wrap bars to keep moisture off.
Why choose a shea butter soap base?
Shea butter is one of the best-known skin-conditioning ingredients, so a shea base lets you offer a creamy, natural-positioned bar with a clear ingredient story and no lye handling.
