Teach Soap

I want to try MP and I am not sure how to start. Where is the best place to purchase the base and what kind should I get. I would like to do a Christmas kind for the family. Maybe a peppermint. I lots of Peppermint E.O. and what do I use for color swirls and how much of the EO should I use per pound of soap. Does MP have to cure like CP

Thanks,
Donna

Brambleberry has great MP. If I were you, I'd look through the ingredients listed on the MP then go from there.

For peppermint EO, I'd go with a light hand on that since it can be overpowering and quite tingly on sensitive parts of the body. I would not go above 0.20 oz/lb of mp base, which is 5.7 grams.

For color, I'd stick with a non-bleeding colorant

MP does not have to cure.

Genny,
Thank you for the reply. I am kinda nervous on trying it.. but if I can do basic CP I guess I can do MP

You can find all of it at BrambleBerry. Please weigh your peppermint oil and use it at a correct %. You cannot use a "lot" without the proper weight. MP can be used as soon as it cools off.
