soapmom25 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I haven't seen pre-colored in a long time except for like small 1 lb. blocks that are super concentrated color in clear soap meant to be chuncked up for bigger batches.Do you not have dyes, or just want a certain color that you can't make?

Sister Kya Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I don't see any pre-colored bases at candles and supplies...Not sure why you'd want to pay someone to pre-color your soap for you. It's awfully fun to do yourself. Besides, I think soap base should be chosen for the quality of the base first, not the color.I do need to perform an in-depth search on the best non-bleeding liquid colorants for MP though. I might be in the market soon. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnS Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 I saw some but cannot figure out where.I just worry it might be to light or to dark.Not just so so.I colored some lotion once blue.OMG I thought I would never get that off my hands and really didn't use alot.At least if I mess up I will know the color by seeing it on the supplier page.There are only about 4 colors and if I remember it wasn't that much more expensive than the plain.I was tempted just do the natural color and add FO just because of the color disasters I have hadLynnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnS Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 I found the colored MP soap.It was at Nature's Garden.I knew I saw it somewhere. 3 colors. Blue, red, yellow.Might be one more.I just glanced at the page. 2 lbs was $4.95. That isn't to high.LynnS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapmom25 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 that's not a bad price, but it doesn't look very dark either, so if you use that to color other soaps it'll be considerably lighter. I guess it would just depend on what you want to make We had considered a long time ago about adding "colored logs/bricks" to our line for people that just like our color but didn't need/want our shapes & designs, so maybe there is a market for this The dyes are messy, I'll give you that ~ blech ~ I'm quite often "spotted" by the end of the day LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LynnS Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 I know not a large selection.But price was good and why I was interested. I knew it was what I paid for the plain MP. I just dab in soap making and did it natural with scent after my lotion experience but can't go wrong I have to assume with this.Yes it is light. I guess make scented soaps with just yellow red and blue.LOL Sunflower and so forth.Soapmom you are much more of a soap expert than me. I am still debating but the dyes weren't my favorite thing.Started feeling that way after the lotion problem.After that it was dye free.
