Scented Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Just was playing around. Down to about enough FO for one more grapefruit jasmine and then I'll be praying Southern Soapers gets this stuff in sooner than ASAP lol. Anyway, went from ho hum looking in the mold[ATTACH]16878[/ATTACH]to the cuts:[ATTACH]16879[/ATTACH]but man I got to find a better looking orange. Used marmalade straight from Select Shades and not overly thrilled with it, but I didn't want to use an orange oxide (too dark) and I didn't want to use neon ... too bright. Anyone with great suggestions on a freaking orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caramel Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I am not a soaper, but I love the colors. Very soft, yet punchy/tropical, like the scent (which I am now going to have to try in a candle for myself! *L*).I really think you are being hard on yourself- but then, we are all our worst critics. But, truly, all of your soaps I have seen are great- this one is no different, IMO.Good luck on finding that orange! *S* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDGM Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I love this one! The colors go together perfectly! Gorgeous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Scented have you tried these..thry are great colorants!! http://www.celestialcolors.com/celestialcolors.htmlNo I haven't. Four oranges to pick from! Whoo hooo! I will have to save so I can get one of every color (after all I'll always be wanting something I don't have.) Do they last and work like Select Shades?ACK!! I forgot I've got that tangerine orange too. Yes it gives a nice orange, so very true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBE Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 oh gosh, great looking soap J! *soap porn approval* I second the Tangerine POP Mica. But I like this color orange with the pink combo... looks fresh and summery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faye_SC Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I love the colors the way they are, and that scent sounds wonderful, but if you need a good orange color, try BCN's Orange Gel Tones. They are great in CP.*soap porn approval* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted January 26, 2009 Author Share Posted January 26, 2009 What I didn't like about the gel tones for the size batches I make is that I had to use a whole small bottle to get a color. Now the pops I have and will look at using them next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
