Ingredients Needed for Melt and Pour Gems

Assemble Your Materials

David Fisher
Assemble all your ingredients and materials.For this project I used:
  • Basic equipment and a basic understanding of Basic Melt and Pour Soap Making
  • Clear Melt and Pour Soap Base
  • Colored Mica - I used an Emerald, a Gold and a Copper colored mica - Micas are available at Soap by Star
  • Soap Dye - You want to make sure your soap color is clear and not opaque
  • Fragrance, if desired
  • A gem-shaped soap mold - The mold I'm using is a Milky Way mold - you can find a similar one at Bramble Berry
