3. Alcohol

4. The little watering can

5. Crystal Mica Glitter Powder

6. Pyrex measuring cup

7. Essential oil (you can choose the smell you like)

Alpha science class: Production steps

Step one:

You need to cut the soap base into small pieces with adult’s help, then put them into oven.

 

Step two:

With the help of your family or other adults, you should heat the soap base with 100 degrees, about 20 minutes.

Alpha Science Toys tells kids，Melting is the process by which a substance is heated from a solid to a liquid state. This is called melting. Water, for example, freezes below zero, above zero, it will become liquid. The process from ice to water is the process of melting.The melting point is the temperature in which an object changes from a solid to a liquid. The soap base in our experiment started out was a solid and was heated in the oven to become a liquid so that we could recreate it in various shapes. The melting point of the soap base is about 55 degrees, at this point, the soap bases began to melt and became liquid. Do you know the reason? If you know how to make crystal soap, you can make more lovely soap in various shapes  with your parents. Let's move our brains to make more crystal soap.
