Color Notes
Notes By Owner/Maker/Creator - Yours Truly, Carrie Jack 😊❤️
Cantaloupe is such an exceptional color. It sits beautifully between pink and orange, just like the juicy fruit it’s named after. In cold process soap, it can range from a soft pink to a true melon tone depending on usage rate and whether your batch gels. In this example, it was used at about 1.5 teaspoons per pound of oils and fully gelled, creating a delicate pink that’s absolutely gorgeous.

Use Notes
Cantaloupe can be a little tricky. It's heat sensitive and can be soft pink or more orange depending on the amount of heat in your soap. Our recommendation is to try this mica at different temps, gelled and ungelled and see how you like it. At higher temps it will be more orange. At lower temps it will be more pink. This color is so unique and pretty and so, so worth it!

Reviews
I use this with green vibrance for my cucumber melon HP soap and it looks wonderful!
These reviews seem redundant because there has not been a mica from Nurture that didn't behave as it should. It doesn't take much to get a really vibrant, pretty soap batter, and I used a little bit of winter white in this to tone it down enough to use with Nurture's Peonies & Peaches EO-FO (to match the colors in the product photo). Easy to mix in, especially if blending in Tbsp of batch oil first, very true color. Nurture never fails with the micas!
Very gorgeous color in soap, and eye shadow.
Great company. Packaged well & product is great!
I just started working with the color blended with other colors and I love the softness it has helped produced in combo with other bolder colors.
Perfect color
Perfect. Melon color for my cucumber melon soap
