Performance Results:
Color: Produces a brilliant, clear “stain glass” color in clear bases. A pastel color is produced in opaque (white) bases. When used in bath salts and fizzies, water color will become tinted.

Product pH: Color not effected product pH.

Color Fading: This dye is light sensitive. A UV Inhibitor has been added to the liquid dye to help prevent fading in soaps and lotions. It appears that this has limited effectiveness in cp soap due to the high pH of the saponification process. If using this color in the powder form, your formula will likely need the Crafter’s Choice UV Liquid Color Stay or Benzophenone 4 to prevent color fading.

Color Migration: If product design has layered colors, this dye will migrate or “bleed” between layers.

Lotions: You have used too much color if your lotion is not white when rubbed into the skin.
