Rose quartz is known as the Heart Stone and is thought to inspire imagination and love. Harness that energy with these Rose Quartz Melt and Pour Soaps. They feature a soft pink hue with swirls of white to emulate the real stone. They are scented with Rose Quartz Fragrance Oil, which is a fresh and citrusy spin on a rose scent.
The soaps couldn’t be easier to make. After mixing in color and fragrance oil, the white and pink soap are poured together into the mold and swirled together. Get tips on how to swirl melt and pour soap here. Once the soap has fully cooled, use a non-serrated knife to cut the soap into gem shapes. The leftover soap can be used in future gem projects, such as the Freeform Purple Gemstones.
What You’ll Need:
12 Cavity Rectangle Silicone Mold
16 oz. Clear Melt & Pour Soap Base
16 oz. White Melt & Pour Soap Base
1 tsp. Rose Gold Mica
10 mL Rose Quartz Fragrance Oil
Dropper
99% Isopropyl Alcohol in Spray Bottle

ONE: Chop 16 ounces of White Melt and Pour Soap and 16 ounces of Clear Melt and Pour Soap into small uniform pieces. Place them into separate heat safe containers and melt in the microwave using 30 second bursts.
TWO: Once the bases are completely melted, disperse 1 teaspoon Rose Gold Mica into 1 tablespoon 99% isopropyl alcohol. Mix to get rid of any chunks of mica. Add all the dispersed mica into the melted clear soap.
THREE: Add 5 mL of Rose Quartz Fragrance Oil into the melted clear soap, and 5 mL into the melted white soap. Stir in completely.
FOUR: Check the temperature of the soap. Both bases should be about 125-130° F to create wispy swirls. Fill about half of the mold with white soap. Then, pour the pink soap into the white soap until the cavity is full. You can alternate pouring the colors, or pour them at the same time. Use a chopstick, dowel, or small spoon to swirl the soap. Spritz with 99% isopropyl alcohol to get rid of any bubbles on top.
FIVE: Repeat this process until all the soap is poured. Allow the soap to fully cool and harden for several hours or up to overnight. Remove them from the mold.
SIX: Use a sharp non-serrated knife to cut the soaps into gem shapes. There is no right or wrong way to do it – just have fun with it.
SEVEN: Wrap the bars in plastic wrap to help prevent glycerin dew. Enjoy!

Hi,
I have been watching your videos which are great, but I have one concern. When doing different colours/layers of soap, it suggest that you spritz it with isopropyl alcohol/rubbing alcohol. I have Googled this, and it states in many instances, that it should not be used on the face as it can cause irritation and flaky skin???
Is there a substitute that I could use instead of the rubbing alcohol?
Many thanks.
Debra Wood
Hi Debra, alcohol is used because it melts the top layer a little which creates better adhesion, and it cuts through any grease or bubbles that might stop you from getting a solid connection with the next layer. It’s not harmful at all, you’ll only be putting down a few small spritzes that will evaporate quickly. The warnings you’re seeing are for using isopropyl/rubbing alcohol directly on the face – yours is going to be heavily diluted in soap.
Can I use Shea soap base instead of white soap base?
Yes, that will feel nice in this recipe.

is wrap better than shrink wrapping these?
To prevent glycerin dew, we recommend wrapping these soaps tightly with plastic wrap. Get more tips for preventing glycerin dew here: http://www.soapqueen.com/personal-ramblings/augh-whats-that-all-over-my-soap-2/

Such a fun tutorial! Thanks.
My question is that the recipe fragrance calculator is measured in ounces and grams, yet the recipe here is in ml’s. Why is there a difference and could you add ml’s to the recipe calculator as that is how many like to work? Thank you.
Pam
We converted to mL because the ounce amount is so small it’s hard to measure on the scale. If you ever have a small amount of fragrance (.3 oz. or less), you can measure on your scale in grams, or convert to mL and measure out with a dropper. Just type in .3 oz. in mL into a search engine and it will give you 10 mL.
