So, I have been experimenting with natural plant dyes and colorants. I plan on using these for soap making but also dyeing things like play dough, finger paints, macaroni etc. to create some natural products for kids. So far I have used the following in my soaps.
- Lemon Powder (Looks a little spotty but variation is beautiful in nautral soap.)
- Parsley Powder (Turned out gorgeous! Check out the picture below.)
I also purchaced some beets, turmeric and spirulina powders to make some natural colorants.
I have also started using natural oxide pigments with pretty good results. I have a few batches on the curing rack. After a long break from soap making (hey life gets in the way) I'm glad to be back in the game!
