"Hi, I want to tint my body butter with this mica powder. Mixing it in, is it best done at the melted stage of the shea butter or will it mix in just as well when the butter has begun to stiffen? Also, would you recommend any other colorant product over this one?"

Staff Answer Micas make for some of the best body butter colorants available. We find that blending the mica with a hand mixer once the butter has cooled works best.

"I use this in my body oil and majority of the mica eventually falls to the bottom of the bottle. I mix the mica and oil well before I pour the oil into the bottle so I am unsure why it does this.. Is there anyway I can prevent this from happening?"

Staff Answer There is nothing in the oils to suspend the mica. It will naturally fall to the bottom. We do not offer an oil-based colorant that will work in a body oil.

"Hi! Can this mica be used in clear mp soap? Thank you!"

Staff Answer Yes, this mica powder can be used in MP soap. It may settle a bit, so if you do not use a suspension base, try letting the soap cool and thicken a bit which will help in holding the mica in the soap better.

"So, I see a lot of reviews of people using this in bath bombs, and I see one answer with staff saying it can certainly be used in bath bombs, but another answer has been removed where someone asked. Can this be used in bath bombs or not? What does "not safe for bath water" mean? Can we put it in bath soaps or soaps where the bar might fall into the water and sit? Please advise. "

Staff Answer We apologize for any discrepancies with this color. This is not safe for use in bath bombs. Bath water means anything that would color the water while a person is sitting in the tub. The color is safe for use in soaps, even if the bar falls into the water.

"I used this in a bath bomb and it turns the skin blue. It washes right off, but I don't think clients would want their skin blue. Is there a reason it did this or do I need to use something besides Mica to color bath bombs? Thanks "

Staff Answer You can certainly use the mica to color your bath bombs but we believe you used too much color. Your skin should not be the same color as your bath fizzies. Try not to make them a deep color but more opaque. They will still be pretty but won't color skin, washclothes, tubs, etc.

Staff Answer UPDATE: When this question was answered, we did not have complete information regarding this color. It is not safe for use in bath bombs.
