Blue 1 Lake Powder

Product Details

Lakes and dyes are not interchangeable, and Blue 1 Batch Certified Lake Powder is a good example of why. Where a dye dissolves in water, this lake powder is built for oil based and dry formulations, carrying a 36% dye content that delivers a rich, true blue without needing a drop of liquid to activate it.

A little goes a long way here, and because the color holds so well in oil, it's a favorite for bath fizzies and other projects where you want that blue to stay sharp and vivid all the way through.

CP Soap: Lakes are not recommended for CP soap. They tend to morph, migrate into other colors, and bleed.

MP & Liquid Soap: Lakes can be premixed in glycerin then added to liquid and melt & pour soaps. be sure to mix very well or you may end up with colored powder speckles in your soap!

Bath Bombs: Lakes don't need to be bloomed like dyes do and they're super easy to use! Only a small amount is needed. We recommend using a .15cc mini scoop and add color slowly until you reach your desired shade. you may also premix the lake in a small amount of glycerin before adding to your bath bomb mix to prevent speckling.

Use Polysorbate 80! Polysorbate 80 should be used with lakes at half your oils to prevent a ring around the tub or staining. For example, if your oils = 3 teaspoons use 1.5 teaspoons of polysorbate 80.
