Teach Soap

From the font's color you might need some titanium dioxide along with your color and the lightest oils and butters for the best outcome in the color. You're going to need to experiment til you get the color that you want. Where did you get the colors? Are they micas? FD&C colors? Are they prediluted in a carrier oil, glycerin or water? Take good notes!

Thanks for the reply ms. Irena. I bought it from a supplier here in our country. I don't think that the colorants I used are FD&C, but I think it is because it came from a accredited supplier. They are prediluted in the perfume. Ok, i'll take good notes on my next batch. So far my latest batch was good. I hope it has good results. I'll update the progress of my project. Thanks, Irena.

They are pre-diluted in the perfume? Perfume can only be used in certain, safe percentages. What if you need more color? Can you get powder that you can dilute yourself or is that something that you did yourself?

I learned that red & blue pigments through experimentation with my oils (yellow) were producing pink colored soaps

Since then I have turned to ultramarine violet and get that color you are talking about in the first post.
