Natural Soap Colorants List
Nearly all of these ingredients can be found in your kitchen, local grocery store, or from soap making suppliers. Many of them are already used to color common foods and drinks. For instance, annatto is what gives macaroni and cheese its orange color, and cochineal is used to color Hawaiian Punch. Unless you’ve used a specific colorant before, or are following someone else’s recipe, it’s important to do a test run before you throw a bunch of carrots or seaweed into your soap. Make a small batch of soap before jumping in and committing to a large batch made with an ingredient you’ve never used before.
