Handmade soap is a great way to show imagination, imagination and amaze others with magnificent works. Even if you don’t know how to draw, sculpt, knit, or do handicrafts in general, you can still make great soap. The main thing is to know how to do this and prepare everything necessary for this. Ylang-ylang essential oil gives soap foam a sweet and enchanting aroma that can give a feeling of mild euphoria. It is added to many perfume compositions. The aroma of ylang-ylang promotes relaxation, improves mood and creates a feeling of happiness.
To make three bars of beautiful soap with the scent of ylang-ylang and pretty curls you will need:

you will need


  • White soap base
  • Soap base transparent
  • Dye orange
  • Ylang-ylang essential oil
  • Alcohol spray
  • Filling form
  • Plastic glass (not to be confused with plastic!) and a plastic or wooden stick
  • Figured knife

First, let's make the so-called “curls.” There are two ways to make them, the simplest: grate the white base on a coarse grater.But not like rubbing a carrot, but by running a bar of soap from top to bottom along the entire length of the grater to make the curls longer. The second way is to carefully scrape them off with a knife. Place the resulting shavings in the mold so that the entire bottom is covered. The mold used here is a regular grocery container.

Next, we begin making the fill. Cut the transparent base into cubes and place in a glass.

Place the microwave on medium power and place the main glass in its center. Every 20-30 seconds of melting, open the door to check the condition of the base and stir it occasionally. Attention: do not allow the base to boil, otherwise the soap will lose its moisturizing properties. It’s better if there are unmelted pieces left in the base. They melt completely when stirring the base with a stick. Add a few drops of oil to the melted base to give the soap cosmetic properties and a seductive aroma. Next is the dye. Just a few drops of dye are enough. However, adjust the color intensity yourself by gradually adding a drop of dye.

It's time to start filling the mold. Before pouring the orange base over the white shavings, it must be thoroughly sprayed with alcohol. Otherwise, it may turn out that the base will not “grab” with the curls and they will fall off. It's okay if the first time you didn't have enough base to fill the entire volume of the mold. In this case, repeat the procedure of melting in the microwave, adding dye and essential oil. Before pouring the second layer of fill, do not forget to use alcohol.

The hardening time of the soap depends on the thickness of the layer. The thinner it is, the faster it will harden.Do not put the mold in the refrigerator, let it harden at room temperature. The finished soap is removed very easily.

The resulting layer can be cut into bars or squares - at your discretion. The shape of rectangles will be convenient and beautiful.
