Double Color Melt and Pour Soap
Prepare your base using the basic melt and pour instructions found in the Teach Soap site.
Pour the first layer of soap into the object you with to fill. You can pour directly from your Pyrex dish for larger objects, or use a dropper for finer lines or details. Spritz with alcohol and allow to harden until a layer has formed. This layer's thickness will vary depending on the surface area of the first pour - use your judgement. You don't want the layer to be too thin (and thus give way). It's better to be too thick than too thin.
Prepare your second color. Spritz the first pour again with alcohol and pour the second layer slowly. Spritz the second layer. Remember, some molds don't allow for soap that is hotter than 140 degrees F (or they will warp), so if your base is steaming or is too hot to touch, let it cool a bit longer before pouring.
Allow soap to cool for 2 to 4 hours (or overnight) before gently releasing from the molds.
