Liquid pigment
Liquid pigment is an ordinary pigment already diluted in glycerin. Soap pigments are easy to use, as they do not require additional manipulations before use.
Liquid pigments in soap making
Liquid soap pigments are usually produced in bottles with a plastic pipette tip. These bubbles are easy to use and allow you to easily control the required amount of color pigment. A few drops are enough to color 100 grams of soap base. Depending on the weight of the melted soap base, the amount of pigment needed to achieve the color stated on the bottle label will depend. Always start with 1-2 drops, mix, and when you are sure that the color is not concentrated enough, add a couple more drops. A soap base that is too richly colored can be “quenched” with additional melted soap base.
Liquid pigments in soap from the base and from scratch
Like all pigments, liquid pigments somewhat cloud the soap base, so they look more original in a transparent soap base. As a representative of pigment paints, liquid pigment does not migrate in soap, maintaining original colors and strict transition boundaries. It is worth buying liquid dye to create soap scenes, when multi-colored soap elements are poured into a large mold with soap base. Liquid pigments are also suitable for soap with swirls. Mineral liquid pigments are used to color soap from scratch using a cold or hot method; here the pigments do not migrate in the same way as in soap from the base.
Thanks to the inexpensive prices for liquid pigment dyes, it is possible to buy sets of pigments to create multi-colored soap bars, and placing an order on the All for Soap Making website is very simple.
