Adorable Gingerbread Man Soap Bar Recipe. Learn how to make these using a simple melt and pour soap base, and scented with a yummy essential oil fragrance.
Cut the soap bases into one inch cubes, and add each to a separate container for melting.
Heat the white soap base in the microwave for 15 second intervals, stirring between each heating session, until fully melted.
Add the Brown Mica Powder and stir well until the color is solid.
Pour into all 8 of the gingerbread mold cavities.
Allow to set and harden for about 1 hour. Unmold.
Add the clear soap base to a container and heat for 30 second intervals, stirring between each heat session, until fully melted.
Add the essential oils and stir well
Add a tiny pinch of the Coffee Mica Powder, stir well until the color is fully blended.
Pour a small amount just to cover the bottom of 4 of the rectangular soap mold cavities (Optional, spray with alcohol to reduce bubbles).
Allow to fully set.
Arrange two of the gingerbread men into each of the rectangular soap mold cavities that you poured a little of the soap into.
Fill the remainder of each of those 4 soap mold cavities with the soap base.
Allow to cool and set completely, about 1-2 hours.
Notes
*You'll want to use approximately 20-30 total drops of essential oil - use any combination of your favorite essential oils. **Be sure to use 100% pure essential oils and not fragrance oils as those are not always safe to use on skin, and usually contain synthetic, potentially toxic ingredients.
