So I have some Shea base and I used the red blue color block (quite a large chunk!) and barely got a flesh tone pink! I have some left over La Bomb colorant from my bath bombs so can I use those to make my bath bombs more colorful? Or are they not meant for soap?

I don;t know about the labombs for MP but to get a good opaque, true red you can use clear MP with a touch of white MP to get a solid red with less colorant. (I don't know if this is what you wanted to hear about using the clear since you are using the shea base and might want a 100% shea based MP, but hopefully this helps

)

If the fragrance is yellow, you're going to have a hard time getting a true red.
