"Surprise"
COMMENTS: Indigo powder turns grey in cold process soap. First time I used it, I liked the end results but thought it would have been more blue. Better prepared next time.

"A little goes a long way"
COMMENTS: A beautiful aquamarine color! Be careful how much you add--I wouldn't recommend more than half a teaspoon for a pound of clear MP soap. I added less than that to a pound of clear MP, and I already got a rich, dark blue color that's no longer see-through.
In one of my early batches, I may have added too much indigo (but definitely less than a teaspoon for that one lb of soap), and the soap water was dying my hands a little blue. So definitely be careful how much you add.
COMMENTS: This indigo powder produces a gorgeous blue for any soap. Also it does not take much to color the soap. It is a very fine powder so it is very easy to introduce into the oils. This product also comes in a nice jar that is easy to store.

"In love with Indigo"
COMMENTS: This is the most fun I've had with a color in a long time! It's stunnng in hot process soap, just stunning and changes color a bit as it cures. It morphed through CP from cut time to cure being finished and I loved it all the way through. It's perfect for masculine bars, denim scents, and I used it for Huckleberry as well- happy all the way. A little goes a long way and changes the end result quite a bit. Get it- you won't be sorry.
