I made my favors last week. They will take six weeks to harden and cure. I made 150 two ounce soaps. I will then wrap them in a label that has our picture on it and the wedding date. The soaps are in our colors and lavender and mint scented.
OH also, the label is made of special paper that has seeds in it that will bloom if you plant it.
Wow, they sound like wonderful favors. Did it take you a long time to make all of those soaps? I guess if you know what you are doing it helps.
It didn't take long at all. I'm a professional saponifier so making the soaps was really easy for me and I have all the equipment. If you like the idea, but don't want to deal with making handmade soaps from scratch, you can always do melt and pour soaps where you just melt down a base and pour into molds.
For my soaps I prepare the soap with lye and oil then pour it into a big block mold. When it is hardened enough to handle (24-28 hours) then I cut the soaps into logs, then I slice soap from the logs.
How do you melt a soap down into a liquid form? It sounds like such a great idea and not too hard if you just have the soap that you can melt down and put into molds.
google: melt and pour soap. You'll find lots of online resources. you can also find special decal paper that you can print out from your computer and place the image directly onto the soap..... You can do a photo of the bride and groom with the wedding date underneath.
Also, you will have to add color to the soap to get it in the color you want, and also some fragrance.
The fairness soap you are asking is effective only if used regularly for more then 15 days, then it start showing effects, yes it is effective
yes i agree with you and one more thing dont use moisturising soap for oil face,it will effect a lot...
For my soaps I prepare the soap with lye and oil then pour it into a big block mold. When it is hardened enough to handle (24-28 hours) then I cut the soaps into logs, then I slice soap from the logs.
That sounds really cool! I've never met a professional saponifier. I like the idea of trying this for my favors, but have never made soap before. Is it something I could try on a trial run?
