I just got my order of dual dispersable titanium dioxide to use in my cp soaps. How much do I use ppo oils and how and when do I mix it in?
I used...let me find my notes paper....1/2 tsp for a recipe that included:PhillipJ said:Hey Lane. I plan on using some black oxide soon. How did you add that? And please let us know how it turned out. OK?
This is how it turned out... I thought the foam was going to be really gray...PhillipJ said:Hey Lane. I plan on using some black oxide soon. How did you add that? And please let us know how it turned out. OK?
Yes, your soap will pick up the tint. And sometimes the FO will morph during gel phase or curing. And Vanilla goes brown, no matter what you do. Yes, your high Ph colors will work if you use FO and EO. http://brambleberry.com/highpHlabcolor.html << Those are the colors I use...they make a range of pale to deep.reallyrita said:Lane , are you saying that if the FO or EO is not a clear looking liquid, my soaps will pick up a tint from it even if I use TD? I have not tried coloring my soaps yet...will the oxides and high PH colors designed for CP work if I also use an FO or EO? I would love to make a pale green soap or a soft rose one someday and have it smell nice too. How is this done? I guess if the FO discolors the soap, there is no way of knowing ahead of time what color you will end up with if you add a colorant to the batch. Yikes!!
