Da BOMB Soap Dye- BLUE 1oz.

I used this blue in hot process soap and the color didn’t turn blue. I was kind of disappointed because I was making blueberry lemonade soap. It was beautiful in the melt and pour embeds. In the soap, it turned teal. I’m going to stick to mica in my soap but I love this in embeds. But I’ll use this bottle in soap for a beautiful teal color.
