Hi Kristie,
what brand of MP is this?

I use SFIC, and their clear is yellowish. I have used their Crystal Clear too, and it is much more transparent, but still has a slight yellowish cast over it.

Adding a drop of ultramarine blue helped. Perhaps you can try that. It neutralizes the yellow.

Did you use an FO? My clear M&P has turned out yellowish before because the FO I used had a yellow tint to it.

You can not take color out of soap once it is in there.

Many "clear" bases have a little ting of yellow or amber.

It is possible, if it looks dingey, that may be because the soap is in a big chunck. Once it is in a normal size mold or slice it should look as dingey.

Wish you had a picture.

I have the same type of mp base with the yellowish tint but after I melt it down it turns clear? When i pour its not yellow at all.

 

[Ms.Missy]

if after you melt ur clear base soap and it has a slight yellow tint, use a little blue colorant just a couple drops (depending on how big of a batch u made, it makes it look clearer
Here's the vid where I got the info:
