Melt and Pour (M&P) is simply that: "melt the glycerin, and pour into molds." It really is that simple.
Melt and pour soap is made with a solvent that allows the soap to be remelted. The soap base is made in a laboratory under controlled conditions and there is no free lye remaining in the soap base when you receive it. It is, therefore, safe to be used around pets and young children.
Melt and pour soap can be made from a wide combination of different fats and oils. In addition, there are many chemical additives that are used to "enhance" the finished product. There are basically two types of melt and pour soap.
A well-crafted glycerin based melt and pour soap will contain only the following chemicals:
In addition to the above ingredients, which are necessary to make white and clear melt & pour glycerin soaps, the following chemicals are often found in these soaps. If you don't wish to have these chemicals in your soap base, be certain to ask your supplier or check labels to certify that they are not present in their product. If your supplier can't or won't certify this, you will have to decide whether or not you wish to use this soap base for your crafted products.
