Made some M & P soap (Stevenson's Triple butter) with imbedded colored chunks made of glycerin M & P (also Stevenson's). Looked great in the beginning but after about 2 weeks, the color in the chunks began to bleed through into the white T3 base. What am I doing wrong? What can I do to prevent the bleeding? Thanks, all!

So I ordered some color blocks from Flaming Candle and decided to add a little of the white to a blue to give it a chalky tone which turned out to my liking. I let the candle set for 2 weeks and EPIC FAIL. I am almost convinced it is the dye. I did nothing different with this candle except a new scent: Winter Wonderland from Flaming. Look at the pictures and tell me what you think. The candle barely burns the wick is almost buried now and what I see on the melt pool is almost a white powder like particles. Again, I did nothing different. I stirred the dyes for as long as I always do. What do you guys think? The worse part is that I just made like 10 other candles last night (different scent) but I also added a little bit of the white. Also, do you think I can re-melt and do something to save these candles at this point? Thanks guys
