I want RED! Bright, shocking, blood red!

I cry uncle! What's the best colorant for this in CP?

I just ordered Red Velvet from BB I'm hoping it will be bright red if not I'm moving on to another red I had some red and I'm out so i'm experimenting.

I'd like to know, too. I just tried WSP's red mica and it morphed to an orangey-peach. However, when more concentrated it does retain some redness but more of an orangey-red - kind of like scarlet.

Colorona bordeau from TKB Trading will give you a nice red. Be aware that if you use too much, it might stain the tub or the washcloth. True, bright red is hard to achieve in CP soap. It might make a good soap for halloween though.

This thread was posted not too long ago. One of the soaps pictures was a bright red. Take a look:

Red is worse than purple- I would go with what Soap buddy said.
