I recently bought a 2lb block of Aloe Vera MP base. This is my first time doing MP, and I was just wondering how much liquid dye I should use for a 2lb batch. It came with about an ounce of Blue Liquid Soap dye, from the Virginia Candle Supply. I'm going for more of a lavender color. Would this be achievable with just the blue? I also have titanium dioxide on hand.
Thanks! :)
 
I don't think u will get a lavender color with just blue. U may need pink. Usually if you use blue and red primary colors they should give you a lavender but that's not true for soaping MP colors. I have tried that myself! ImageUploadedBySoap Making1393338810.267455.jpg. This is pink and blue mixed
 
the color of lavender can be tricky to achieve. even with cp, i sometimes have a hard time getting the right shade i want. if you're not careful, you'll ended up with.... grey :p
 
Yes Seven. Been there done that!!!!! Lol. That was so crazy!!!!!
