Why is my soap speckled?
Why did my beautiful blue soap morph to gray?
What is Bis(Glycidoxyphenyl)propane / Bisaminomethylnorbornane copolymer and why is it in my colorant?
How do I use herbs to color my soap?
Is this colorant natural or synthetic?
This color has a dye in it, why does the supplier say it won’t bleed?

All of these questions, plus many more, are answered in this detailed guide! Get your copy of How to Color Cold Process Soap today! (On-sale now through January 2nd!)
