Too much colorant in my soap
by Donna
(Ohio)
How can I save my cp soap I add too much mica and now I have red bubbles.
Answer:
You have a couple of options.
1. Grate the soap into shredded bits and add as confetti to a white or lightly coloured CP base. This would be a very nice look for Valentines Day.
2. Grate the soap and add to an uncoloured batch of hot process right before the cook. The soap bits would melt in the plain batch during the cook and the colour would be diluted.
Good luck,
Cathy
