How to make whipped soap from melt and pour soap. This mermaid soap is light, fluffy, and perfect for bathing or use to shave your legs.
To celebrate summer coming, I have this adorable whipped soap recipe made from melt and pour soap in a fun mermaid theme. I've also teamed with with eight other bloggers to bring you summer themed DIY recipes, so check those out at the bottom of the post.
I've been wanting a good whipped, fluffy soap for a while. My son has sensory issues, and he likes to play with putty and playdoh, so I thought he'd like it. My daughter loves slime, so I knew she would love it too.
You can buy a foaming bath whip, but I will be honest in that I do not need more supplies. I have an insane amount of supplies, so I wanted to use what I had to make a foaming soap instead of buying something new.
I tested some ways to make a whipped soap from melt and pour soap, and I found a winner.
This makes a base recipe for whipped soap, and it's a great one. I didn't add much extra to it, but I will be playing with a little more to see what additives also work in it.
I will also mention that I made this in high humidity when my house was 85 degrees, so it was pretty hot. This whipped mermaid soap has held its shape and didn't fail even in the heat and humidity, so I feel pretty confident that this will work in all conditions.
