Description
- Use rate in cold & hot process soaps: 1-2 teaspoons per pound of oils.
- Use rate in melt & pour soaps: .5 teaspoons per pound of base.
~ More or less can be added to achieve your desired color. These usage rates are recommended for no colored lather. ~
Add Activated Charcoal to your soap making oils before adding your lye. Disperse thoroughly with a stick blender until it is fully mixed, then add your lye water. This will help achieve the darkest black.
Gel your soap! If you gel your soap if using activated charcoal your soap will turn very dark. Gelling is the secret to getting the blackest black with activated charcoal in cold process soaps.

I'm still experimenting, but so far so good. I've been able to get a multitude of colors from this one product, (ash gray, share gray, and black) all with the benefits of activated charcoal. Love it will repurchase in larger size.
stay true to black color, made my first charcoal soap...it turned out wonderfully.
Added a little golden mica to make it shimmer :)
Love activated charcoal and this brand keeps the color instead of fading, I will be purchasing a bigger one in the future.
I love this product. It stays so black. Absolutely will be buying more!
Used this with Trial by Fire Red for a Tiger Stripe soap and it came out awesome. Great dark black created great contrast with the read. Easy to disperse. Great price also.
