Soap Queen TV Episode 2: Herbs and Colorants from Soap Queen on Vimeo.

Follow along with me as I discuss more another basic soapmaking technique: using herbs and colorants. Add herbs to your soap for a bit of texture or grind them up for a refreshing exfoliating effect. I’ll also help you choose the best colorant for your specific soaping project.

For easy reference, here is the ingredient list for this week’s project:

Clear Soap base
White Soap base
Ultramarine Violet (violet oxide)
Lavender herb buds
Lavender fragrance oil
Royal Purple Labcolor
Amethyst MicaTools:
Heat safe container (like a Pyrex measuring cup)
