When you hear the word Mermaid, you also think of a vast ocean, gentle breeze, and sparkles from sunlight reflecting off the water that sometimes creates wonderful pastel rainbow colors. Magical isn’t it. That’s how I describe my Mermaid Whipped Soap.
I’m serious! This Mermaid Whipped Soap is indeed so Fluffy and the colors are so cool. My kids love it too. They really enjoy taking a bath with it. They love the colors and the glitters in it.
For me, besides how it looks, I love the effects on the skin. After the bath, my skin feels soft and the scent is mild. That’s because of the essential oil you put in the Mermaid Whipped Soap.
You can also accompany this Whipped Soap with the Mermaid Sugar Scrub, too.

- 1 cup whipped soap base
- 2 tablespoons liquid vegetable glycerin
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 pound of clear melt and pour soap base
- 10 drops of ginger essential oil

- 1 tablespoon Argan oil
- 1/2 tablespoon white cosmetic glitter

Here is how you make the soap
To start with, add 8-10 cubes in a large microwave container, (each cube equals a little less than 1 ounce of the clear soap base. Heat in 30-second bursts until soap is completely melted.
Add in Argan oil and then add in the whipped soap base and glycerin.
Mix on low with a hand or stand mixer for 1 minute. Mix on high until mixture begins to thicken and is light and fluffy, much like frosting.
Fold in half of the cornstarch.
Next, mix in essential oils and cosmetic glitter. Beat for 1 more minute. If the mixture is not beginning to form stiff peaks like a meringue, add more cornstarch, 1 teaspoon at a time until it does.
Divide whipped soap into 3 small mixing bowls and add blue color to one bowl, purple to another and teal to the last bowl. Start with 1-2 drops of color and mix it in. If you want a darker color, add 1-2 more drops and repeat until you get the color you want.
Add one of each color frosting to each of the 3 piping bags. Hold bags together so all sides of the tips meet.
