Oh boy. I had a purple one and tried to use it in CP. Bad idea, at least for me. I tried melting it down in the microwave with a little bit of oil and it overflowed in there so it was all over the glass. Nothing a little soaking couldn't fix. But then I put it in my batch of soap and it just separated and was chunky. Picture is worth a thousand words. Hopefully someone else has used these and can chime in

I have to say that I actually rather like that picture, the purple splotches remind me of the chunks of fruit that you would have in jam. Where everything is coloured and then you get the yummy bits.

What I wanted to know is what is that pretty round purple swirled one in the corner. That is very nice. I'm trying to work up to swirling in my pringles can but haven't yet gotten there.

Their web site says its not approved for CP. Its basically color already added to M & P base. If I was to use it, I would add it to the oils and blend the heck out of it so it blends in really well.

The one I took the pic of for Pepsi is scented with WSP Monkey Farts so it is fruity, so funny you say that. The round, swirled one was an in the pot swirl and then poured in to a PVC mold and cut with a crinkle cutter. Thanks!
