Transform bath time with Glow in the Dark Pigment. Add to your creations to bathe under the stars in the comfort of your own tub!
Nurture Handmade's glow in the dark pigment is manufactured in Ohio, and it is the only legal phosphorescent pigment for cosmetics that meets the purity specifications outlined by US FDA (Consult 21 CFR 73.2295). There are no other glow powders available that meet the FDA purity specifications. It is only available in one color, and because of Nurture Handmade's rigorous purity requirements, it is the only one we offer for cosmetics and soap.
Our glow powder charges quickly by daylight, incandescent, fluorescent or UV light and produces a bright green emission color without an external light source. The length of the “afterglow” depends on pigment concentration, surface area and charging time. This glow powder can be used up to 10% by weight of the final product provided it is not for regular or “daily use.” A good example would be Halloween make up (or soap)!

So cool!!! Looks super neat in CP soap!
I'm in love with this GITD pigment. It mixes easily in cold process soap and provides an absolute WOW factor. I used double the amount of pigment to regular mica and tested the batter for glow in a dark room while it was still fluid. It kept the same brightness after processing. I did refrigerate rather than oven process the kaleidoscope to keep the colors.
Fast shipping; beautiful pigments and wonderful scents!
I’ve purchased this before in smaller amounts but wanted to try the 4 oz for a change. Very reliable.
I Created A Soap For My 8yr old Lil Man’s And I Know He’s Gonna Be Beyond Excited To See His Soap Glowing In The Dark, Like How Cool Is That ? 🧼🤣. Definitely Gonna Cop Some More Real Soon.
This is a fun additive to play with! Works best in melt & pour. Works in CP but have to add a lot.
I made these soaps last year using white melt and pour. I also used colored micas & F/O. They glow like crazy even when I just used my cell phone light to activate the glow! These sold like crazy last year & I am in the process of making these again. I did have a little trouble with the glow in the dark pigment settling to the bottom. Over all over pleased.
