1) Add 20% Food Grade Glycerin to 80% Distilled Water
2) Mix the heated solution for 10 to 15 minutes with constant temperature. The trick is keep the temperature low and constant. A beaded, mushy look will result if the heat is a too much.
3) Always add the lye to water. Adding water to lye may cause a dangerous chemical reaction.
4) Add in fragrances and colors. Just stir in.
5) Pour into molds and cool. Plastic containers are the best choice.
6) Leave the container partially open to allow the solution to breathe.
7) Store for 4 to 7 days before using.
