Ok, so I've gotta make me some pink soap.
I've tried pink clay and raspberry mica, red clay... what else??? Pink ultramarine. TD & ultramarine......
I cannot get it right.
I want rockstar pink!!
I don't how artificial the colourant has to be I just want PINK!!! Purdy pink, like musk lollies.
I can get a fairly light soap base going and I can pick a FO that won't discolour.
Can anyone suggest a method or colourant for me???
I'm really struggling with it.
 
Pink Soap

I made pink soap! Is this Rock Star Color? I used Hot tropical Sunset, from Oregon Trails....

So u think a neon type pink?? With TD maybe?? I can order OS but would prefer to get it locally if I can.

I can get this....

Just looked up rockstar ingredients. They use TD plus D&C red no3.

What do you think of this?

Its bubblegum scented and that particular batch has been on the rack for over 8 weeks - its smells JUST like Bubblicious too :D
 
Love the bubble gum soap! Which FO are you using (and from what supplier)? Sounds yummy!

What is WSP? I LOVE that color!
 
Nature's Garden - Bubbluscious. YUM!

And WSP is Wholesalesuppliesplus.com :D
 
I got a nice magenta bar using the Red Raspberry color from Majestic Mountain Sage. Not quite as hot as some of these pinks, though!
 
I adore that bubblegum soap too.

I ended up ordering the D&C no33 or is it just 3?? Whichever I'm not sure... anyway I ordered it. I got a purple too just in case I need to cool the pink off a bit.
Liquid dye here I come. Funny cause when I started soaping I was never going to use anything but 'ala naturale'. How can one resist all those colours and fragrances. TDF!!

Thanks for the input all. I really appreciate it.
I'll post a pic when I make the soap.
 
pink soap

I'm a pink girl too, and I have found that if you use ENOUGH of the raspberry pop, it will pop. If you gel your soap, it will pop more. I've also seen color tests with the Labcolors in fuschia, and it was a beautiful pink.

I also want to try BB's new neons...those are on my list to order.

I'M A PINK GIRL ALSO!!

I'm expecting some ultramarine pink in a shipment this week. Can't wait to try it, though I'm shooting for a lighter shade as well. I can see several experimental pink batches in my future...

And thanks for a soaping inspiration. I have lots of those plastic beverage glasses. Never gave them a thought to use for mixing up colors in!! :D

Thank you for this! I was thinking of ordering LabColors... but was hesitant to make the investment without examples of what the colors produce. I wish they would post more pictures on their site.

Nattynoo who did you order from?

I'm not a pink person ... not even a little bit ... I'm soooooooooo purple ... a real blue purple ... and find the whole pink thing a major challenge.

A woman I work with and love loads is a pink and purple person and has been asking me to make soap with pink for her and her family. I really want to ... so have bought some FO's that I feel pink and purple colours may be ok in. ... but I currently don't have any pink.
