Maybe I was too vague, sorry!! I would like to make some to sell. Would I make it just like I would a MP bar? Same process I mean? melt it in microwave, fragrance it, all that? Sorry for my slowness!! LOL

I forgot to ask you ladies another question. What additives would you suggest for the shave soap and to what ratio? Is there a particular shape that I should try using to make it easier for the person to hold onto while they are using it?

It totally depends on your preference, some people (myself included) add in clays, although I believe the shaving MP base already contains kaolin clay. There are a whole bunch of clays out there, so look around, figure out what you (or your customers) like, and go from there. The sites you buy from will usually include a guide to how much is ok to add. Be careful because some clays can stain washcloths, tubs, skin, etc. :)

The shaving soap I usually made had bentonite clay added, it gave it a really nice "slip", the recipe called for 2tsp per lb of soap base. Although as frimfram was saying, if the base itself already contains kaolin clay you really might not need many more additives than fragrancing etc, (personally I always left my shaving soaps uncoloured). As far as shapes for holding, I actually find a cheap mug from the store is a great container for shaving soap. Package it with a shaving brush and it gives it that old time classic feel to it and also the handle comes in really handy :wink:

Not sure about your neck of the woods but our local supermarket sells a pack of four basic range mugs for under a pound! Bargain!

:D

Thank you guys. I am in North Carolina and I would have to go to Dollar Tree in order to find cheap basic mugs. Do I just pour the soap into the mug? What I mean is use the mug as a mold? Where would I get a brush from?
