SLS/SLES free - Shea Butter & Glycerin Melt and Pour Soap Base
Melt and Pour Soap Base refers to a soap base that has already undergone the soap-making process so that the user can simply melt it, pour it, customize it and allow it to cool before using the resulting bars. Discover the properties, benefits, and all artistic possibilities of various Velona’s Glycerin bases!
Benefits of using Velona's Melt and Pour Soap Bases:
Make the unique gift:
Melt and pour layer soaps are perfect for your child’s teacher. This homemade craft is a fun idea as a Christmas, teacher appreciation, or anytime gift. Made with your favorite essential oils. All you need to do is melt & pour into different soap layers using premade soap base. Super Simple!!! This layering process gives you a beautiful handmade soap that makes for lovely gifts.
Easy to work with:
Melt and pour soap is a great option for beginners. All you need to do is melt the premade base, customize it with your favorite colors and scents, and pour it into a mold. Once you get the hang of the process, you can experiment with advanced techniques like layers and swirls.
Great family time spending:
Melt and pour soap base is a perfect way to spend some interesting time with your kids and family members. The great benefit is that these soap bases are perfectly safe to work with. Discover lots of ideas and make unique soap bars for yourself or as a gift for the ones you love!
Beneficial to your skin:
Although Melt and Pour soap incorporates synthetic substances, which may range from foaming agents and alcohol-based emulsifiers to solvents, these chemical elements enable Melt and Pour soap to liquefy in order that it may be formed into the preferred design. Cold process soaps usually contain less Glycerin than Melt and Pour soaps, thus they are more likely to be drying on the skin.
Safe to work with:
The foremost benefit of using Melt and Pour soap bases is that the user does not have to deal with the caustic substance known as Lye, as it has already been incorporated into the soap base in advance. The user-friendly nature of Melt and Pour soap is another benefit of these bases, as this method makes it uncomplicated to quickly achieve professional-quality soap bars with luxurious appearances, scents, and textures, all of which can be customized with a wide variety of artistic possibilities.
Ready to use instantly:
Another key benefit of Melt and Pour soap bases is that, unlike cold-processed soaps, the final product does not require a curing period, that is to say, there is no days- or weeks-long stretch of time during which the soap must be left untouched in order for the lye to be neutralized and for the saponification process to be completed; once Melt and Pour soaps have been removed from their molds, they are ready to use immediately. The longer the soap sits, the harder and milder it will become.

It smelled nice on its own, was easy to cut and melt quickly as well as hardened and cooled quick as well.

Edited 2/16/23:Forgot to update this XP oops.But I did test out the new recipe they sent me and I wasn't a fan. bubbling was slightly better which was nice, but it left my skin feeling like it had a drying film over it- a huge nope for me in soap. I gave them constructive and honest feedback based on my experiments and experience from myself and immediate family using this new formula. we all felt it was drying and filmy. a huge bummer, since i loved velona before the recipe change. I declined their generous offer to send me a 10lb block to replace the old one i initially ordered. You can tell velona genuinely cares about their product and their customer base. until they nail this recipe again, i personally don't recommend this soap for now. much love to them still though.Edited 12/8/22:Velona reached out to me and explained they'd recently changed their recipe. this changed recipe is what i received when i first posted my complaint in the original review. after getting some feedback, they changed their formula again and offered to send me a 2lb bar free of charge for me to test and determine if I liked the new rendition. in the event i did, they offered to replace the 10lb of soap i ordered last with 10lbs of soap from their newest recipe. I received the 2lb bar today and will update once I've had a chance to use it. so far, unfortunately, it still has the same odor I initially complained about. I'll still test the newest version and see how it behaves in contrast to the last order i received, and the "original" recipe I had become accustomed to 3 or 4 orders before this one. Even if it turns out I don't like the product and need to switch brands, I still have to give props to their customer service. I honestly didn't think that there was anyone behind the product who cared (as is usually the case with products on amazon, I find), but I was pleasantly surprised. If nothing else, I'm grateful to the team for trying and being so willing to try and make it right.Original Review:I bought this soap 4 or 5 times before and it was perfect. people loved the results and i got a lot of compliments out of what i did with the soap base, but my last order was really weird and i cant figure out how to reach the seller. the smell was strong and weird whereas normally there's just a very mild clean smell. These 5 lb bricks smell like old crayons or clay and just plain stinks. the expiration date isn't until may of 2024, so it shouldn't be rancid. i used half a 5lb loaf to see if adding fragrance oil masked the smell. No, it does not. this sucks. i really liked this brand :(

I love everything about this soap base. It is easy to use and then store rest in the original packaging, no need to waste more plastic for storage. It melts down easily because it's already pre cubed. Sometimes I like to cut it down a little bit smaller if I would like it to go a little faster but the sizes are perfect. I use this to make decorative soaps as well as soap that I use in the shower for my family. It does not dry your skin out or leave any weird residue. I've tried many different brands but definitely prefer this one

As a fellow soap maker this is it. The scent is light, its super moisturizing to the skin and makes your skin so soft. The lather is amazing and the color is easy to change with pigments. The value is really good to in comparison with other brands.

I like how the Shea butter comes pre-cut , I don't have to do any cutting from a block. It melts quickly once it heats up, so constant stirring is needed. It pours smoothly into the mold and levels nicely. It lathers with just the amount suds that I like. There's a generous amount of cubes in the bag and I have enough to make my second batch. There's nothing I dislike about this Shea butter.

If you don't want to run into the risk of using lye and other potentially harmful substances while trying to make home made soaps, then this is the way to go. It has a light scent of shea, so it does blend well with other scents you use. It is soft and easy to pour once you melt it. Just be mindful of how much time you use to melt the soap and make sure you stir consistently. If you don't, you may get chunks of soap that you don't want in the finished product.
