velona 2 lb - Shea Butter Soap Base, Melt & Pour, SLS/SLES Free

I absolutely love the Shea Butter Melt and Pour Soap Base! It melts easily, mixes well with colors and fragrances, and sets beautifully with a smooth, creamy texture. The shea butter leaves my skin feeling soft and moisturized without being greasy. It’s perfect for beginners and experienced soap makers alike. I’ve made several batches already, and every bar turns out great. Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys making their own soaps!

First of all this is prefect for beginners. Very easy to use and melts at only around 100°F so useing heat sensitive materials like honey is very easy and safe. I love the fact its natrual and has a lot of beneficial ingredients like coconut oil and olive oil. Overall a great base that easy to use and very quality. It dose have a light scent , similar to olive oil but its not very strong. That being said unless u add stronger scnets it will always be noticeable. I added tumeric, honey, eucalyptus and rose but the original smell is still very present al be it a good smell. As for moisturizing and lather potential it worth fairly well but uts mainly up to what you add.

This is indeed the best base to use when making breastmilk soap. It’s the first one I started with and the only one I’ve tried definitely have bought several times.

UPDATE: I simply did not know what I was doing smh. After playing around with it, it turned out be a great product! Had my family test the soap out and they all had nothing but good things to say about it. Ordered this based on the reviews. I'm not too impressed. Yes, it was easy to cut. But it started to set almost immediately after I stirred in the turmeric. I felt like I had to hurry to mix everything and pour into my mold. So, I wasn't happy that my soap wasn't thoroughly mixed like I wanted. Then I pull the soap out of my mold the next day (a full 24 hour) & my soap didn't even harden all the way, so its bendable. Honestly, I don't even want to test it out to see if it moisturizes or anything else. Unless I did something wrong, which if that's the case, some thorough instructions should be included with the purchase, I am not too impressed nor am I happy.

Product was good, set well. I used the clear glycerine before and in comparison, I felt that this product absorbed the essential oils scent more than the glycerine product. I will try it again and add double the amount oils.
