MICA FOR LOTION?

[dubnica]

I was wandering if I can add regular mica that I use for CP soap to color my lotion base? I am adding Mango Fo to purchased base and I thought a little tangerine mica would make it even better. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Mica is fine as is any of the cosmetic grade colourants as they are skin safe....

I use skin-safe mica in my lotions for color and a touch of shimmer. Add it during cool down, not when the mix is too hot or it will clump. Sprinkle it in slowly and blend well, a little bit at a time. It doesn't take much to achieve the desired effect.
