Sulfate-Free Base Designed for Gentle Everyday Cleansing
The WSLS Free Soap Base in a 1 kg package offers an alternative to conventional formulas built around harsh sulfate surfactants. It belongs to the Melt and Pour Soap Bases category, which brings together different melting and pouring options, and stands out because its formulation avoids aggressive lauryl sulfates. As a result, finished bars feel gentler on skin, are less likely to trigger irritation, and work well for sensitive users, including children and people with dry or reactive skin.
The primary use of this raw material lies in producing solid cleansing bars for body and hands, children's personal care items, and products for spa studios that focus on mild or naturally-derived formulas. Beyond skincare, sulfate-free bases are also popular in gift and decorative production lines, where buyers pay attention not only to appearance but also to a formula free from irritating ingredients. The 1 kg size is well suited for home-based crafting, testing new recipes, and running small trial batches before committing to larger production runs.
Handling this base is straightforward: melt it in a water bath or microwave at roughly 60-70 degrees Celsius, then blend in oils, extracts, fragrances, and colorants. Heat-sensitive additives such as essential oils, vitamins, and plant extracts should be added once the melted mass cools to about 50-55 degrees to preserve their beneficial properties. A typical dosage for oils and butters is 5 to 15 g per 100 g of base, fragrances around 1 to 3 g, and colorants adjusted according to the depth of shade you want to achieve.
WSLS Free pairs well with other base types, allowing layered designs and mixed textures within a single bar. It can be combined with the Transparent Soap Base Palm Free 1 kg to build contrasting layers, while a firmer, more structured texture can be achieved by adding the Crystal WSLS Soap Base Stephenson 1 kg. For those planning to move from home production toward larger batches, the Transparent Soap Base Palm Free 12 kg offers steady supply for scaling up.
Store the base in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations, kept in tightly sealed packaging to prevent premature drying or absorption of external odors. Under proper storage conditions the product retains its working properties for an extended period.

Cut the base into cubes and melt it over a water bath until fully liquid, avoiding boiling. Remove from heat and let it cool to around 55 degrees, then stir in the almond oil and honey until evenly blended. Add the oat flour and vanilla fragrance, mix again until smooth, and pour the mixture into molds. Allow the bars to set at room temperature for a few hours before carefully removing them from the molds.
