Our Earth's Secrets Oatmeal- 2 Lbs Melt and Soap Base -

I like this soap base. It melted easily and smoothly. It was easy to mix in fragrance and botanicals. It didn’t seize up and cool too fast. It smells really good. My soap bars came out very nicely. It made very nice looking bars of soap. The texture is nice and smooth. It doesn’t seem to irritate or dry out my skin. Great for my hobby.

Melts easily, I generally melt this base in the microwave with a glass bowl, stirring often. Pours easily and sets up very nicely. This is a great soap base for those starting out, and long time soap makes. I can generally have a batch of soap setting up in 10-15 minutes.

I’m issuing the photo for attention…hehe….I’m making dog shampoo bars out of this soap base! Please take a few minutes to visit this stores website and leave an honest review their as well if you were planning to review this product here on Amazon. There was only one review on their website for this product and it was a one star?!? It seems silly. I left mine on there but I wanted to give a bit more detail. The lathering is AMAZING and so soft! I was for some reason supposed to see it “bubbling” or “foaming” when I was lathering it in my hands because when I think of oatmeal soap I for some reason don’t think of bubbles lol. When I stuck my stirring spoon that was full of it in the hot boiling water when I was finished with everything it melts in the water like MILK it’s so pretty and satisfying to me. The alcohol smell (in my opinion) that I’ve seen on previous reviews I believe is a rubbing alcohol layer on the outside of the soap for packaging that doesn’t affect the actual soap or smell of it once broken into and used. So don’t panic if you open and it and hold it to your nose right away and smell it. When you start cutting it up and working with it then try smelling it if your curious. Again I’m super impressed with this soap base and excited to keep buying it! I also wanted to note that I didn’t really smell much of oats or oatmeal personally but I don’t have a super strong nose. That may actually be a good thing for those that don’t want a super oat-mealy smell but want the benefits of using this soap base. Make sure when it comes to layering, you’re quick about it! It hardens pretty fast. But a lot of reviews on here that do more of the layering stuff found it a great soap base for that too! Don’t forget to leave a review on their website!

This is my first try making soap and using this product was great. It’s very easy to work with and forgiving with errors. I was able to reheat several times without problems. It has very little to no smell which is what I wanted since I wanted to add my own scent. It leave skin nice and soft and cleans up easily without residue. Dries quickly. I’m definitely going to try the other soap bases in this line next.

This sofa I have purchased repeatedly. It measures exactly the same every time as a smooth and creamy consistency is very high-quality.
