dixylight Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 I'm looking into starting to color my soaps. I am interested in the gel tones from BCN because they are close and people seem to have success with them. Does anyone prefer any of the different types? I see there are concentrated, cosmetic, and non-cosmetic. I'm thinking about trying the concentrated ones and using less to save $$ is this the correct way of thinking? Has anyone noticed a difference between the cosmetic and non-cosmetic grades besides the fact that the cosmetic ones are safe in lotions and m&P? Sorry for all the ??? Any advice would be awesome! I'm kinda chicken to try powders and stuff...but if you have other suggestions, that would be helpful too! TIA-Joanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 Can't answer a one of those questions, but AnitaG surprised me with some that I'm gonna try as soon as I get around to another batch of soap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnhorsemom Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I have used several of BCN's Gel Tone Colors in my cp soap. It's easy to use and I have been very happy with the colors so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dixylight Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 Well thanks everyone...I was too impatient for follow-up on this and bought some oxides and other goodies from RJ's last night. I will try BCN's gels next time I order from them. Thanks!-Joanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heirloomoriginals Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I order most of my stuff from BCN, so I have been looking at these too. RJ's has some great prices on Oxides, so I am going to try both, eventually!!Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I bought some BCN gel tones two months ago, but haven't had the time to use them. I have pink, kelly green and lavender. If anyone wants them, make me an offer. Otherwise, I'll stick them in the classys soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
