Copper Penny mica is a copper color with subtle red tones that will add a metallic sheen to your soaps. It really is the color of a penny with more sparkle and shine.

Use Notes

CP: Mix 1 part color with 1 part oil then add to soap.

MP: Mix mica in 91% rubbing alcohol then add to soap base.

HP: Add micas toward the end of the cook to retain the most color.

Avoid green and yellow oils. The whiter the base, the brighter the color! Gelling soap makes colors pop. Read our FAQ section for more info on using colors.

Bath Bombs (if safe for use): Use polysorbate 80 when using mica to color bath bombs. This will help disperse the color and prevent a powder ring around the tub.
