Cut and Weigh the Soap
Start by cutting your melt and pour soap base into small chunks and weighing out 100 grams.
Cutting the soap into smaller pieces helps it melt more evenly.
Prepare the Luffa and Rope
Cut a piece of twine long enough to create a loop for hanging.
Tie the twine securely around the luffa sponge.
Place the luffa inside your silicone mold, leaving the string hanging outside of the mold so it becomes embedded in the soap.
Melt the Soap
Place the soap cubes into a microwave safe container.
Microwave in 10 second intervals, stirring between each interval until the soap is completely melted.
Melting slowly helps prevent overheating the soap base.
Add Fragrance and Color
Once the soap is fully melted:
Add: 6 grams fragrance oil and Mica powder
Stir gently until everything is fully mixed.
Tip
If the mica powder doesn’t want to mix in completely, spray a small amount of rubbing alcohol onto the surface of the soap to reduce surface tension.
Pour the Soap
Slowly pour the melted soap into the mold, covering the luffa sponge.
Once poured, spray the top of the soap with rubbing alcohol.
This helps pop any air bubbles that may form.
Allow the Soap to Cool
Allow the soap to fully cool and harden before removing it from the mold.
Once unmolded, your luffa soap on a rope is ready to use.
