Description
- Use rate in cold & hot process soaps: 1 teaspoon 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. ~
Indigo can be incorporated into soap in many different ways:
- Add the powder directly to soap. This will result in a grayish-blue color.
- Add indigo to hot lye water and let it sit, then add it to soap. This will be darker blue.
- Oil infusion. Add the indigo powder to oils and apply low heat (i.e.crock pot). Let the indigo infuse into the oils for several hours and then add to soap. You may want to strain the oils to ensure you don't get any powder bits in your soaps.
We suggest trying all three methods to see which works best for you!

This indigo acted very interestingly. I put it in the lye water. When mixed with the oils it turned green. After cutting the outside was cream color and inside started turning blue. It's now a blue on the inside and still cream color on the outside
I had looked everywhere for the blue indigo powder. So glad I found it!
This mica is gorgeous! It was slightly darker than expected but nothing that would make me change using it again! Blended great with other blues and didn’t notice any clumping.
A little goes a long way! Great bold dark blue
Arrived fast and creates amazing blues in my soaps. I added it to my oils in these pictures
