Such a beautiful blue!

If you are looking for an all natural colour this is just perfect. I don’t make soap (so I’m not sure how it would work out) but in other products for bath and body it works perfectly and the colour doesn’t fade as quickly as other natural colours we’ve used.

not CP stable

this powder is the most amazing lapis blue but it does not stay blue at all in CP soap. I thought I'd give it a whirl and could literally see it fade before my eyes. Oh well. I'll try it in bath bombs and see how the tub fares.
