Instructions

1. Prepare the Milk Carton: Cut the top off the milk carton to make it easy to pour in the soap mixture. If the carton is a bit flimsy, you might reinforce it with some tape on the outside to make sure it holds its shape when filled.

2. Melt the Soap Base: Chop the soap base into small pieces and melt it gently using a microwave or a double boiler. If using a microwave, heat the base in short intervals, stirring in between, until fully melted.

3. Add Scents and Extras: Once the soap base is melted, add a few drops of your chosen essential oils. You can also add other natural ingredients like oatmeal or dried lavender for added texture and properties.

4. Pour into the Carton: Carefully pour the melted soap mixture into the prepared milk carton. Tap the carton gently on the counter to make sure there are no air bubbles and the mixture is even.

5. Let It Set: Allow the soap to cool and harden for several hours or overnight. Place it in a cool, dry place to ensure it sets properly.

6. Remove and Slice: Once the soap is set, tear away the milk carton and slice the soap into bars. A sharp knife or a string can be used to cut it smoothly.
