Soap is created by mixing fats and oils with a base.[3] A similar process is used for making detergent which is also created by combining chemical compounds in a mixer.

Humans have used soap for millennia. Evidence exists for the production of soap-like materials in ancient Babylon around 2800 BC

When used for cleaning, soap solubilizes particles and grime, which can then be separated from the article being cleaned. In hand washing, as a surfactant, when lathered with a little water, soap kills microorganisms by disorganizing their membrane lipid bilayer and denaturing their proteins. It also emulsifies oils, enabling them to be carried away by running water.

Soap is a salt of a fatty acid used in a variety of cleansing and lubricating products. In a domestic setting, soaps are surfactants usually used for washing, bathing, and other types of housekeeping.

Пищевые красители продаются обычно очень концентрированными. Поэтому их иногда следует разбавлять водой. И не делайте очень насыщенный цвет, мыло должно оставаться прозрачным, как желе. Да и цветная пена вам ник чему.

Soap Formation
Pour the liquid soap into the prepared mold. Silicone does not need to be lubricated with oil or alcohol. If you work with plastic ones and are afraid that it will be difficult to take them out of the mold later, then wipe the mold with oil.

Adding oils, perfumes and dyes
Pour into the glass in which you will mix. It is convenient to use single-use plastic cups. I use them, of course, more than once, they are easy to wash after the process.

Drop a few drops of base oil into the liquid base and stir.

Add the dye drop by drop, stirring constantly. Depending on the concentration of the dye, from one to several droplets will be required.

Sometimes I dilute a very "dense" dye slightly with water.

Melting the base
Cut the soap base into small cubes-pieces. It's easy to do with a regular knife.

Melt in a water bath, stirring constantly so that the base does not stick together. Even if this happens, do not be afraid – just here, in the container in which you melt the base, cut the stuck layer with a sharp knife and continue to melt.

Many soap makers use a microwave, I also like to speed up the process. And cleaner in the kitchen. You can put a porcelain, glass glass with a base in the microwave, even a simple plastic one will do if you have already adjusted to the temperature regime and can adjust the power.

Ingredients for soap making Despite the achievements of the chemical industry, the composition of modern soap is not much different from the medieval version. Its main components are fats and an alkaline ingredient. Fats The choice of fats has become much more diverse these days. Now not only animal fats are used for this purpose, but also vegetable fats. Most often, the masters prefer olive or coconut oil. During operation, it is necessary to take into account the properties of oils. So, for example, olive oil does not foam, but perfectly moisturizes. Coconut oil, on the contrary, foams perfectly, but at the same time dries the skin.
An alkaline component For making soap, you will need lye, which you can buy in most hardware stores. Do not forget that it is a chemically aggressive substance, so you need to work with it in personal protective equipment, away from animals and children. For the manufacture of lump soap, sodium hydroxide should be used, and you will be able to get liquid soap using potassium hydroxide.
