SOAP USE

M&P SOAP

PLEASE REMEMBER! These pigments disperse in oil not water so ensure the pigments are fully dissolved before finalising for moulds etc.

When using the colourants in Melt and Pour soap stir in well, some prefer to mix in small amounts before adding to main batch but this is preference only.   If there are any clumps floating to top spray with rubbing alcohol to help disperse the pigment/mica. Clear M&P will always show Mica much better as the light will catch and sparkle through. So glitter effects will always show better in clear. Deep colours will colour with Mica but when colouring white M&P, there will be a pastel colour as white M&P is coloured by Titanium Dioxide which is extreme white colourant. 

COLD PROCESS SOAP

When using in Cold Process soap adding ensure that it is well blended in or clumps can hide inside the set loaf. You can mix the colourant in rubbing alcohol or some of the oils before adding to the batter if preferred, mix at very thin trace to allow colour mix before the trace gets too thick. Start with 1/8 tsp per 1lb or Approx 500g of batter.

BATH BOMBS

Please remember! when using Mica Pigments that using Polysorbate or 1 to1 emulsifiers will stop colour attaching to you or your bath tub.(polysorbate, or 1 to 1, this will allow oils and water to mix and not leave a slick as the additives allow the oils and water to mix). You can also mix Oils or rubbing alcohol with pigments and use the  “Blooming” method. Basically it means mixing all your ingredients bar the Citric Acid then allowing to dry then adding the citric mixing well and just spritzing as you would to get your wet sand consistency (Please check you tube for “Blooming” techniques.

COSMETIC USE

Please ensure colourants are fully mixed\dispersed in oils. Test batch small amounts before making large batches, always follow instructions carefully when needed.

 CANDLE USE

Thoroughly mix colourants in wax to ensure no clumps, you can mix with a mini whisk in a small amount of hot wax before adding to main batch if it cools pop it in a bain marie or micro to melt. Adding a lot of pigment can affect burning so make a small batch/candle first, this will stop wastage and you can gauge how much you will need accurately by multiplying you test batch.
