I am new to the soap making world and super excited! I have a question that I am hoping someone can help me with. Can you use loose eye shadow (all natural, made with mica) for coloring?

It would color the soap yes, however there is most likely a lot of other ingredients in there other than just mica. The color will not be as strong as straight mica and if you are labeling/selling your soaps this is a no no as you may not be able to label the ingredients correctly.

IMO, for yourself yes you can, but the color might morph. I would not want all the other ingredients that are in the eye shadow in soap.
You would really be better off either waiting til you can get real soap colors, or go buy them. BrambleBerry has a good selection.
