Glycerine

[LaurieS]

I have read to add glycerine to recipe of melt and pour if you want to be able to roll it up to make curl slices in another soap or loaf. Is this Glycerine ok to use?

I don't think you can use that one because it doesn't say 100% GLYCERIN. It says 100% something else,but if I was you I'd go buy some that states,that it is 100% GLYCERIN. They sell it at Walmart in the pharmacy section, for if you need it quickly. Brambleberry also sells it and isn't expesive either. I hope this helps you.

I don't add anything to my M&P base when making my curls. I use Wholesalesuppliesplus.com soap extra clear soap base but I would think most of the M&P bases will work. They key is to mold it when it is warm. Form example you can use the jelly roll pan and pour your soap. Unmold your soap when it is still warm but solid. You should be able to roll it up and then cut it into slices. Just make sure you don't pour it too thick.

If you want small soap curls you don't even need to have the soap base warm. I will even grab an old bar and put it in my salad shooter and presto...curls.
