TFCbrooke Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Is it possible to get bright colors in white (goat's milk) soaps?I've always just made mine w/o coloring but thought I might try some layers or swirls.But on the sites I'm finding color charts it shows that in white bases the colors are more pastel and in clear bases they are bright.(that's with liquid coloring) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitn Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I would suggest TKB trading pop micas or flourescent micas , they are the best colorant I have used . You can mix them and create your own colors .http://www.tkbtrading.com/item.php?item_id=210&category_id=27HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inherowndominion Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 TKB is the way to go if you want bright colors. If you want your soap super bright, try adding titanium dioxide first to whiten up the soap and then adding the mineral colorants (which I prefer over the liquid, you gotta use a lot of liquid colorant most times to get a really bright color). Also, I've noticed if I don't let the soaps gel (they take longer to cure then though) the colors are brighter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitn Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I find white matte mica works very well to whiten up the soap too . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
