Last of the soy oil soaps

[Bex1982]

So I was trying to get rid of my hydro soy and made 3 different soaps. All of my regular soaps are rustic and only one color, well one of my soaps has two colors. So I'm not really versed in colorful or swirly type soaps. They are orange patchouli, ocean reef and tuberose.

oh and they are all CPOP . The orange one is gold mica, the white part has silver mica and on top i put cookie sprinkles. The pink one is powdered color dye in purple raspberry, the white part has silver mica and the top has rose petals that turned dark because of the CPOP, didn't know it would happen, never done that. The blue one is iron oxide and it's lighter in real life, the green part is stevia root.

Wow, really bright colours. I especially like the pink soap colour. Is it as red looking in real life?

I've only just started to use colours with some good and some not so good results!! I 'm going to try taking some photos and posting them in the next few days. I've just got to work out how!!

I can't wait to see your pictures. Yes, the red is kind of a pink red, but it is that bright. The blue one looks kind of like the earth which wasn't intended LOL.

Thank you!

The jar juust says gold mica it's from the sage. The blue is called seafoam and it's also from the sage and its an iron oxide. Im surprised the gold turned orange but it's what I wanted so I was lucky there. I did have to use more than I normally would

While mixing it looked more like an orange cream but after gelling it really popped.

 

[Bex1982]

Sorry!! The seafoam color is an ultramarine not iron oxide!!

I looked on the sage's website and i'm 100% confident that they sent me the wrong mica. Never having seen gold mica, I just thought that's what it was. I think they had the jar mislabeled. I think they sent me their orange blaze or whatever it's called. they don't even sell a gold mica anymore. Well, I can't get my money back, I bought it like 5 yrs ago. Oh well, at least it worked for this haha. I was wondering why it kept turning my soaps orange. It doesn't look orange in the jar, kind of yellow gold. ?? weird. :lolno:

Whatever the color/label, you still have beautiful soap! I just love the vibrant, happy colors. I'd gravitate to those if I was shopping....

Thank you hoping they sell this summer at the market. I was trying to figure out a way to label them without covering up the design. I decided on a ribbon tied around it with a printed card on the back.
