Hi, I am still new to making melt and pour soap and i do have a question that i have not been able to find an answer to so far. I have notice that my soaps sometimes melt in the summer and i wanted to know is there anything i can add to it to stop that from happening? Would adding stearin help with that?

I assume it's not actually "melting", but instead sweating?
A while back, I found a good link on sweating (she calls it glycerin dew): Explaining and Preventing Glycerin Dew - Soap Queen

Thank you for the reply 
actually i do mean melting because i put the soaps in our cloths to give them the beautiful smell from the soap and in hot weather it melts into our clothes and they get stained when the soap sweats they don't get stain as bad.

That's a shame. I would hate if that happened to my clothes!

it takes a lot of heat to melt a melt n pour soap...it takes roughly 120-130 degrees to melt melt n pour.....its not melting, its glycerin dew and the staining is from the mica or liquid dye you usedThank you for the reply
