If you ever make slime or playdoh, you’ve probably noticed that glycerin makes those products shiny and slippery. Although pure glycerin isn’t likely to cause an allergic reaction, any added ingredients in OTC products might.

Adding these solvents helps the glycerin cook more evenly and makes the soap a little more transparent. Even after using the solvents, this recipe made very hard bars of soap, and I really love the way it lathers.

You can melt the entire block of glycerin or just cut off a little at a time until you've melted an amount that seems suitable for your soap-making project. You can spray alcohol on silicone soap mold to avoid bubbles forming when you pour glycerin soap into molds. Some petals such as rose or lavender will discolour to brown if incorporated into the soap base so it is best to sprinkle these on the surface instead of adding them to the main body of your soap. It also helps to maintain the skin’s natural moisture balance, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin. I would have loved to use a consumable alcohol without any added scents or ingredients like Everclear, but I wasn’t able to find anything like that here.
