The great things about melt and pour soap recipes, if that curing takes just a few hours.
Keep your soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Wrapping each bar in wax paper or storing them in an airtight container helps preserve the scent and prevent moisture buildup.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb white soap base (any variety)
- 1 ½ tsp chai tea
- 15 drops vanilla essential oil
How to Make Chai Latte Swirl Soap:
Slice your soap base into one-inch cubes and split them evenly between two large measuring cups with spouts.
Place both cups in the microwave. Heat them in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until the soap is melted and smooth.
Once melted, add the chai tea to the first cup and mix well. In the second cup, stir in your essential oil.
Let both cups cool for a short while. When they start to thicken just a bit, slowly pour both into your soap mold at the same time. This will help create nice swirls.
Sprinkle a little chai tea on top for a pretty finish.
Leave the soap to harden overnight. When it’s firm, use a wavy cutter to slice it into one-inch bars.
