The feast of all lovers is approaching. I want to present something significant and memorable to my only half. Handmade soap is an ideal option. To do it is very simple, even a beginner can handle it. And if you carefully follow the instructions, then after a while a fragrant bar of soap, prepared with your own hands, you will certainly be pleased and inspired by new creative exploits.
What do we need for work? It is enough to buy a base for soap, a useful oil for skin care, a fragrance and a cosmetic dye, a picture on water-soluble paper. You can make a picture yourself, or you can, of course, get it in a specialized store. Optionally, you can take cosmetic sparkles. Well, the form for soap, too, will have to be thought out. A lot of inexpensive forms are on sale. You can use improvised materials. Boxes, containers, cardboard or plastic, which will tell the imagination.

So what does it take to make such an unusual present? And, most importantly, with your own hands! Which is doubly nicer.
1. Take a matte base for soap (100 g needed) and cut into small cubes.

6. Put our picture on top and sprinkle with sparkles. Let it dry well, but not cool completely.
7. At this time, melt the matte base. The main thing is not to let her boil. Only melt. Add apricot kernel oil. It will take care of the skin, moisturize and nourish. We drip 6-8 drops of flavor. In this case, it is the Tea Tree. It has an excellent delicate aroma, in addition, it is an excellent antiseptic.

8. Divide the base in half. While the previous layer has not cooled yet, it is quite hard, but plastic, pour half of the base with a second layer and spray with alcohol.
9. The remaining half is stained with cosmetic dye, 1-2 drops will suffice, and pour on top as well as the previous layer. Until it cools completely. Spray with alcohol and let cool completely.

It is impossible to create the same soap twice the same for a dear person. Having presented such a gift to your beloved or beloved (men can also try it as soap makers), you will know for sure that the gift is exclusive, unique, and most importantly, it is made with a soul. Because without a good mood it is impossible to do a good thing.
