Mixing colors

[Humblegoat]

I am now mixing my own colors with mica powders using cyan, magenta, and yellow. I wanted my red a little darker, but I came close! How much mica powder do you use per ox of soap to get bold colors?

Wow! Stunning work there. I use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon mica per pound of oil.

Thank you. I don’t find the hanger tool enough to get the swirl I want so I tried something new, made one pass with the hanger tool and followed with a popsicle stick swirl pass. Definite swirl improvement!

How did you position the popsicle stick?

How did you position the popsicle stick?

Started at the end of my loaf mold and did larger swirls, 1 pass I did a video that isn’t showing on my end. I’ll post it differently if it doesn’t show
