Dying soap

[nedastar]

I cannot seem to get the right amount of td to turn my soap white. Any suggestions?

I use Bramble Berry brand of titanium dioxide. I use 1 tsp dispersed in 1 Tbsp oil and dump most or all in and get a nice white. I generally make a 900 g batch. What colors are the oils and butters you are using?

I use olive oil, light green or light yellow, shea butter and sometimes mango butter, coconut oil.

Using refineded oils and butters should make a difference. Lard will give you a whiter soap. Natural butters and unrefined olive oil will often give the soap an "off" color.
