Green Tea Leaves in CP?

[craftykelly]

Will they discolour the soap much if any? I would maybe at a tiny bit of colour too but probably just the tea leaves. Also they would be soaked in oil first. TIA

I haven't tried green tea leaves, but most of my botanicals turn brown or black in soap.

Mine too! I made a beautiful spearmint with leaves in it and over time the leaves turned brown and have small halos of brown around them. I was heartbroken!

I've donen a Blueberry Green Tea as a Bundt cake - it does turn into brown and yellow spots but I quite like the look - very earthy...

I have used powdered green tea, and it always comes out a greenish brown. I would assume the leaves would do the same.....
