Natural Cutch dye powder for soaps
 
Our natural cutch powder can be used as a natural  colour for making soaps.  The powder can be used in either the cold process or melt and pour processes.  Expect lighter to spicey brown shades
 
Cold process
Mix 1 teaspoon of the powder with 1 tablespoon of a lightweight oil. If you’re using clay, we recommend mixing with distilled water. Add 1 dispersed teaspoon at a time at trace. 
You can also infuse natural colorants. To do so, heat the colorant and the oil of your choice in a slow cooker for 1-4 hours or place in an airtight container and leave at room temperature for a couple of days to fully infuse the colour.
Melt and pour
Mix 1 teaspoon of powder with 1 tablespoon of 99% isopropyl alcohol or distilled water. Add ¼ teaspoon of dispersed color to the melted soap until you get a color you like.
 
We are able to provide a MSDS sheet and a brief description of the cosmetic benefits of the dye on request and for a nominal cost.  However, please note all cosmetics including craft soaps must be safety assessed, and also must meet the relevant cosmetics regulations before placing onto the market.
