Tomato red from NG

[Lbrown123]

I have tested tomato red in a couple batches of soap, and I like it. I made pink soap and added the color into the oil to stick blend it completely into the batter. But I have to say that it took a lot of dye for that batch and at the price for 1 oz. I don't think I am going to be able to use it much. Has anyone found a more econimical version of red?

I am gathering that Mica is most affordable? I will try to conserve by using the tomato red for small swirls. It really makes a nice hot pink!
