How does someone get gold in cold process soap? Mica's don't seem to work.

I'm trying to paste a pic, not quite sure how to do it. If this didn't work you can go to http://www.simplysoap.com/Holiday%20Soap.htm Check out the Frankinsence and Myrrh

Thanks!

I have used gold mica and it worked for me. You do need to use a lot and pour the mica (mixed with little glycerin) into a CP soap batch at a light trace. Start to pour high so it reaches the bottom, then close and closer til you reach the top.

If you are looking for the sparkle I don't think it can happen as there is no light refraction in CP soap. You could try putting some gold skin-safe glitter for a topping on the bars?? I checked out your site and it is very well done. You are an inspiration to all of us newbies!
