Coloring "Hunter's Moon" soap







I was making our best selling Hunter's Moon soap tonight and I took this picture to show how I color our soaps. Using cosmetic grade colorants (color that is safe to be applied to the skin) I custom mix my colors for each soap I make. For example, as shown in the picture, Hunter's Moon is colored with 4 custom mixed colors using a mix of 5 different mica and pigment colorants. You can see the recipe card for my Hunter's Moon soap in this picture. Each soap has it's own recipe card with the exact color combination I designed for that specific scent.
