Product description

The soap base ZENISOAPBASE is used for the production of soaps and soap bouquets. It has a plant-based base, is free from animal fats and oils – 100% vegan. The finished soap has excellent foaming properties and, thanks to its high glycerine content, also moisturises the skin very well.

This soap base is ideal for pouring larger volumes. It solidifies faster than basic bases. It is characterised by very high transparency, which makes it ideal for soaps with embedded images.

When colouring the base with ZENICOLOR dyes, it is better to mix 70% transparent base CLEAR and 30% white base WHITE to avoid excessive consumption of dyes.

If you pour the soap in different layers, the individual layers need to be sprayed with alcohol to increase adhesion. We recommend the IPA product from our range. The base remains liquid for a relatively long time, so it can be used even for more complex projects. During longer standing there is no loss of volume of the soap castings (important especially when creating bouquets).

Working with the soap base is not demanding at all. It is sufficient to cut the required amount of soap base into smaller pieces, which speeds up the melting phase of the base. Slowly heat the base in a water bath or in a microwave. Be careful, the base must not boil, so heat it slowly. Into the melted base you can add a few drops of essential or fragrance oil, liquid or powder colourant and, for a special touch, dried herbs.

Stir slowly so that unnecessary air bubbles are not formed, which would create holes after solidification. Pour the soap base into the prepared mould. Immediately after pouring, we recommend applying a few sprays of a bubble remover – this is 99% isopropanol – using an atomiser. The final step is to let it solidify. After unmoulding you can use the soap immediately, but we recommend letting the base stand for about 2 weeks for better properties.

Melting temperature: 65 °C; do not exceed a temperature of 75 °C during heating!
