Are you drawn to the pretty, jewel-like see-through Glycerin Soaps on the shelf, as opposed to their to their opaque counterparts? Do you craft soap using Melt & Pour Soap Base and have ever wondered if you could make it yourself, rather than purchase it from a store or supplier? Do you make Cold Process or Hot Process Soap already, and want to take your soapmaking skills up to the next level? If you answered yes to any of those questions get ready! You can now make your own transparent & meltable soaps, from scratch! Handmade Soaps made from scratch, both Cold Process and Hot Process, are naturally opaque (i.e., not see-through), but with a few added ingredients, and some additional soapmaking knowledge (a good tested recipe & clear instructions), you can put a unique twist on your handmade soap that will set it apart from the rest and impress most of your soapmaker friends. This instantly downloadable PDF document, created from our combined experience teaching classes on Making Transparent Soap, is for people who want create their own custom transparent, remeltable soap that is as “natural” as possible, but which employs some manmade solvents to achieve transparency. It is important to understand that by sticking with mostly natural or naturally-sourced ingredients, it's impossible to achieve a very clear, hard bar of transparent soap. Natural-ingredient transparent soaps are always going to be more amber in color, slightly milky (as opposed to crystal clear), and a bit softer than their detergent-based, synthetic counterparts. This handout includes a discussion about the use of both natural and manmade ingredients in transparent soap and the trade-offs involved. For a list of typical solvents used in transparent soapmaking, as well as what else is covered page by page, please see the summary directly below. Disclaimer: Making Transparent Soap is more difficult / involved than making bar soap. This is an intermediate or advanced soap making topic. It assumes that the reader has prior experience making soap from scratch.
