Longzang3D Mermaid Silicone Soap Mold 3D Handmade Craft Mould (S531-S532)

i may have some trouble, since it's wax i'm using but my 1rst mold came out with tiny bubbles.

I made homemade soap from these molds. The thickness was on the mark and the detail of even the smallest shell was visible. Simple a delight.

easy-to-use

I want to start by saying that I have several other Longzang molds that I absolutely adore. That's one reason I'm super disappointed in my latest order from them. I received 5 molds - none of them are in great condition: one I'll consider "usable" but not the quality I expected from them. The soap is gonna look a little off and uneven. One is just like that but a bit worse. And the other 3 are completely useless. I'm going to need replacements or a refund. I was counting on these molds for soaps for a special occasion and could not be more disappointed. They're also really "greasy" and have a strong chemical odor. My other molds from them in previous orders did NOT have that greasy film or the odor.*Update* I contacted the seller. They replied promptly and are sending new molds. Will update again when they arrive.

I bought these molds on special request from a friend whose mother likes mermaids. The molds shipped quickly and arrived sooner than expected. These are excellent for melt & pour soapmaking. There's a lot of fine detail in there, which gives a more adult, sophisticated high-end look to the finished product. Well, as sophisticated as mermaids can get. Love the hair. You can pour them all with one color, or brush a little of an accenting color into the mold first, then fill with the second color. I also brushed some bath product safe glitter into the molds with a little silicone brush before pouring in the soap. Gave a nice glimmer and made the tails stand out. I foresee using these a lot, and changing up the design in a lot of interesting ways. Highly recommended.
