Sandra –
Made a batch of cold process soap and used the Trial By Fire Mica to colour the top layer. I used about 1 tsp per pound of soap, dispersed in olive oil, and the result was a nicely saturated red. The soap set up and cut just fine, but, alas, when I went to do the test “wash” a few weeks later, I had coloured lather and a stained white washcloth. Disappointing for sure!

Bleeds red when washing hands
Not a red when I used the correct ratio CPS
dark pink very disappointing
I spent the money which was a lot for postage to Australia thinking it would be worth it sadly mistaken

Does give red lather so use sparingly. Perfect red in my cp soap.

Ive use this mica for several years. True red for Christmas. I use in small amounts for swirls so it’s not too much color as suds will be pink.

Very true, bright, Christmas red for CP soap. You do get red lather, though, and if you use less, you don’t get that bright red result. Seems to be you have to trade the red lather for the colour, I haven’t found any other true red that works like this one.
