I love the red roses. What company or brand red color did you use. I'm trying this liquid form red color I bought from Hobby Lobby and that is a pink whenever I use. Please advise me:?:

Hi!! I m from india..to be very true,i have not used anything branded..i cant buy from any supplies like brambleberry coz shipping charges n dollar in comparision to rupee is very high..:D n my parents wont allow me to spend much becoz I just started 2 months back,n dont make often..I explained this long,so that you dont think that m not willing to share..i just have four colors in total..i mix match..n some natural..like I made light purple with ratanjot,dont know wt is dat called in english,n turmeric for orange nd yellow,spirulina powder for green,cocoa powder n coffee for brown,thats how I manage..the red I had also turned pink,so I added peach color to it..n it turned red..:)

Hi Shivani, I am originally from India too. I have relocated in US after my marriage. The name Shivani did make me think of Indian but assumptions are not always good! I'm originally from Gujarat. I thank you for sharing this red color mystery. Thanks a lot!

Oh wow!! Nice to hear that..now you could definately understand!! :D
 
Guys, do you think I can add a little food color to the mp soap? Has anyone tried it? I have heard that it can stain the skin.... Is that true?
 
Food coloring will usually bleed or run. The best colorants for M&P are micas.


Are you in the US? The reason I ask is because, I have tried using the regular red color that we get at Craft stored but that always turns pink :( ImageUploadedBySoap Making1386220532.110000.jpgonce, I thought of adding more drops and see what it turns out like and this is what I got!!!! :(.

Where do you buy Mica from? Any website suggestions? Or stores? Please advise
 
Thanks Shivani

Dang girl!!!!! You are so awesome. It looks more like a piece of cake with icing on it. Can you take a picture of it sideways
