- 1). Cut the glycerin soap base into matchbox-sized chunks and set aside.
- 2). Bring water to a boil in the double boiler.
- 3). Add the soap base chunks and set the temperature to low. Stir occasionally until the chunks are fully melted.
- 4). Remove the soap base from the heat. Stir in the food coloring until the desired color is achieved, then add the peppermint essential oil and mix thoroughly.
- 5). Spray the soap mold with the rubbing alcohol. This will help prevent air bubbles and will make it easier to remove the soap later on.
- 6). Pour the base into the soap mold. Wait for any air bubbles to rise to the surface of the mixture, then spray them lightly with the rubbing alcohol to disperse.
- 7). Allow the soap to cool for an hour before placing it in the freezer. Wait 30 minutes, then remove. Make sure the soap is fully hardened before removing it from the mold.
