Are you sure you're not adding something else that makes your soap come out crumbly? Like too much sodium lactate or something like that?

I've read that too much TD can make soap crumbly. But I've used up to 1 tsp ppo and have seen it used at this commonly, and have had no issue myself. I use BBs oil/water soluble. I disperse it in water.

Sodium lactate makes your soap harder. I use it from 1%-3% depending on my mold mostly.

I tried that purple mix and mine came out almost brownish or green in the soap. I think I put too much blue. This was also in my fail colorant testing batch soooo.... :?

Yeah, you have to use a good bit of the orange for it to pop, and probably be sure to gel it. I am wanting to make some cp with my NG Carrot Cupcake FO, trying to figure out how I will get a richer, slightly brown orange to possibly pipe on top somehow (I have never tried piping, please pray for me). I laid in bed last night trying to figure out what I could add to it and still keep the orange hue. May just have to find another colorant, I dunno....

P.S. Here is what BB's neon colorants look like in CP, Tangerine Wow included.

Wow....that Tangerine Wow is much brighter than mine has turned out! Guess I'd need to add more colorant. I can't stand when the soap bleeds/discolors, so I tend to be conservative on the amount of pigment I use.
