My new eBook, How to Color Cold Process Soap, is complete!
This eBook is the soapmaking industry’s ultimate and most up-to-date color resource for cold process soap.
Coloring soap can be confusing, especially when first starting out.
- Do I have to pre-mix oxides?
- Why is my soap speckled?
- Why did my beautiful blue soap morph to gray?
- What is Bis(Glycidoxyphenyl)propane / Bisaminomethylnorbornane copolymer and why is it in my colorant?
- How do I use herbs to color my soap?
- Is this colorant natural or synthetic?
- This color has a dye in it, why does the supplier say it won’t bleed?
All of these questions, plus many more, are answered in this detailed guide. Whether you are soaping with mica, mineral pigments, cosmetic pigments, dyes, clays or natural spices and herbs, you will become a master at coloring cold process soap.
