Clear Dyes: Dye powders are super concentrated colorants and are approved by the FD&C for use in soap. Dye colors usually migrate between soap layers so keep that in mind when using. Some dyes can also be sensitive to UV light and fade if exposed. A UV Inhibitor has been added to most of WSP dye products to ensure stability in UV light.
- Dye powders are best if premixed with distilled water. Add drop-by-drop of the mixture using a pipette until you get your desired color. Using too much colorant in your soap can result in staining.
- To make things easier, you can purchase premixed dyes in liquid or dye soap color bars.
