The invention discloses a soft glaze for a glazed tile and a glaze preparation method. The dry material of the soft glaze comprises the following chemical ingredients by mass percentage: 48-53% of SiO2, 11-15% of Al2O3, 6-8% of CaO, 0.5-1.5% of MgO, 2-5% of K2O, 2-5% of Na2O, 0.2-1% of B2O3, 5-8% of BaO, 10-13% of ZnO, 2-3% of ZrO2, less than or equal to 0.2% of Fe2O3, less than or equal to 0.1% of TiO2 and the balance of impurities. A proper amount of aluminum oxide, zinc oxide and calcium-containing material and barium-containing material are added into the formula of the glaze to form a compound matte agent; the zinc aluminum forms spinel at the high temperature, the emulsivity of the glaze is improved, the glossiness is regulated, the high-temperature levelling property of the glaze isregulated, so that the glaze is more smooth and finer. A proper amount of kaolin, the aluminum oxide and the zinc oxide are introduced into the glaze, the chemical composition of the glaze is regulated, the mineral composition of matte calcium, matte barium, matter zinc and the compound matte agent in the glaze is regulated, and the purposes of smooth and fine glaze and low glossiness are fulfilled.
