The Azlok 3D Sun Moon Face Silicone Soap Mold is a flexible, reusable mould that lets you cast detailed celestial-themed soaps, candles and resin pieces at home. Made from soft white silicone measuring roughly 90mm x 30mm, it releases finished pieces cleanly and works well for both first-time crafters and small businesses.
What you can make with it
This mould is more versatile than the name suggests. The raised sun-and-moon face design comes through crisply, so it suits a range of pours:
- Cold process and melt-and-pour soap — the most common use, giving you giftable bars with sharp detail.
- Candles — soy wax, beeswax or paraffin all work; add a wick and you have a decorative pillar candle.
- Resin art and home decor — coasters, paperweights, wall hangings and trinket pieces.
- Baking — food-grade silicone handles chocolate, fondant, jelly and small bakes.
- Plaster and wax melts — for scented decorations and cupboard fresheners.
Because it comes in Pack of 1, 2, 5 and 10 options, hobbyists can start small while soap sellers can batch several moulds at once.
How to use the mould
- Clean and dry the mould before your first use.
- Prepare your medium — melt your soap base, wax or mix your resin as per its instructions.
- Pour slowly into the cavity to reduce trapped air bubbles. Tap the mould gently on the table to release any bubbles that rise.
- Let it set fully. Melt-and-pour soap firms up in a few hours; candles and resin often need longer. Cold process soap needs a longer cure before unmoulding.
- Flex and pop out. Once solid, gently push from the base and peel the silicone back — no need to yank the piece.
Getting cleaner results
- Spraying a light mist of rubbing alcohol on soap surfaces helps clear surface bubbles.
- For resin, a heat gun or torch passed briefly over the top releases air pockets.
- Pour at the right temperature — too hot can distort fine detail, too cool can trap air.
- Chilling melt-and-pour soap in the fridge for a short spell can make unmoulding easier.
Safety and material notes
Silicone is heat-resistant and flexible, but treat it sensibly:
- Keep a separate mould for craft use if you also bake, so soap and resin residues never touch food.
- When working with lye for cold process soap, wear gloves and eye protection and work in a ventilated space — the mould is safe, but the raw ingredients are caustic.
- Resin should be used with good airflow; follow the resin maker's curing and handling instructions.
- Keep moulds, uncured pieces and craft chemicals away from children and pets.
Cleaning and storage
Wash the mould with warm water and mild dish soap, then let it air-dry completely before storing. Avoid sharp knives or scourers, which can nick the silicone and leave marks on future pieces. Store flat or loosely stacked, away from direct sunlight and dust. Cured resin residue can usually be peeled off once fully set. Looked after this way, an Azlok silicone mould stays usable for many batches.
Buying tips
Choose your pack size by how often you cast. A Pack of 1 at the current deal price of Rs. 499 is ideal for trying out celestial designs, while Pack of 5 or Pack of 10 suits makers running weekend markets or bulk gift orders, since casting several at once saves time between pours. The mould is made in India, so replacements and repeat buys are straightforward.
FAQ
Is this mould food-safe for chocolate or baking?
Silicone moulds like this can handle chocolate, fondant and small bakes. If you use the same mould for soap or resin, keep a dedicated one for food only, as craft residues should never mix with edibles.
How do I stop air bubbles in my soap or resin?
Pour slowly, tap the mould to bring bubbles up, and mist soap with rubbing alcohol or pass a heat gun over resin. Pouring at the correct temperature also helps.
How long before I can unmould the piece?
Melt-and-pour soap usually sets in a few hours. Candles, resin and cold process soap need longer curing — follow the timing given for your specific material.
Will the mould get damaged with regular use?
No, quality silicone is reusable across many batches. Just avoid sharp tools, wash gently, dry fully and store away from sunlight.
Which pack size should I pick?
Pick a single mould to try it out, or larger packs of 5 or 10 if you make soaps and candles in batches for gifting or selling.
