Great red
Best Red for Cold Process Soap
I love this red just don't overdo it start small and add more if needed. It won't bleed if you don't overdo it, you'll have red bubbles if you do.
Haven't used this yet, but it's a very pretty red color.
Love this color!
I used this mica for coloring soap dough for embeds. The color is vibrant and perfect for my use.
