"True to color in MP Soap and does not bleed"

"Easy to use, goes a long way"

COMMENTS: This brown soap colorant is perfect for making gingerbread men soaps. A tiny, tiny bit colors an entire pound of white MP soap base. I've always used liquid colorants in the past, but couldn't find the right color of brown. Now that I've tried this bar colorant, I'm sold! From now on I'll only use bar colorants.

	"A little goes a long way"
COMMENTS: Believe me when I say that a little goes a long way. I chip a tiny piece off with a knife and add it to the soap just as it's finishing up the melt process. Don't add to much or else your soap will be a dark brown. Adding a small amount gives it a perfect light brown hue.
