Hi Guys , I know this probably not the right forum for this but I hope someone can help me.

I am considering buying some ready made liquid soap so I can just add an essential oil to it, but I wanted to colour it as well, has anyone done this or got any ideas on the best way to do it? Ideally I would like a natural colour.

Thank you all in advance. xx

Most natural colors will oxidize over time in liquid soap, turning them to some sort of a brownish shade.

Do you mean you bought the ready made natural liquid soap? Or synthetic wash? Natural liquid soap usually carries an amber tint and hard to color.

This is an organic soap, but it is clear.

Also thanks Soapbuddy .

I wanted to do a couple of different smells so was thinking to colour the Lavender - lavender and the Rose - pink etc..... :) .
As it is an organic wash I really wanted the colours to be natural too.

Any thoughts gratefully received.
