And it is necessary to bear in mind that to color soaps does not serve any product, it is necessary to have quality dyes like the ones we put at your disposal in our online store.

Soap dyes must meet two basic requirements: be cosmetic grade, since they will be in contact with the skin; And, in this case, be specific for oil soap, since the saponification process can alter the colors, both tonality and intensity. Two qualities of soap dyes that you can buy here.

In Gran Velada you have at your disposal dyes for soaps in liquid and powder format. The advantage of the first is that they are already scattered, ready to incorporate into the trace of the soap. They are very simple to use, since you just have to add the dye until you get the tone and intensity you are looking for. Keep in mind that, in general, the trace of the soap usually has a yellowish tone, so the final color may vary. We recommend that you add this type of dyes for soaps little by little while beating, in this way the intensity of the color will be greater.

This type of dyes for soaps withstand alkaline pH very well, hence they give good results in oil soaps. That is why they remain stable during the saponification process and color variations are minimal.

Pigments for soaps

Meanwhile, powder dyes are pigments for high-quality soaps , with two essential characteristics: they are stable and unalterable. To incorporate them into the trace we recommend you to previously disperse them in a mortar with a few drops of oil, so the intensity will be greater. Once you have dispersed the pigment, you just have to add it to the trace and beat for a few seconds. In this way the color will be dispersed throughout the soap and color the entire trace. It's very easy and you ensure good results! One of the great advantages of these pigments is that the colors remain stable and do not migrate, which allows different layers of color to be made.

In addition to these pigments for soaps, in our online store you will find them of mineral origin. The quality is the same, the only thing that varies is the method of obtaining. What you do have to keep in mind is that the range of colors is more limited. The same goes for dyes for soaps that have natural origin.

Both the pigments for soaps and the dyes that you can buy here have a great advantage: the same color can give rise to different shades, it all depends on the amount you use, and they can get from soft and muted tones to others more intense and striking. You just have to play with the amount to add! Of course, it is important that you keep in mind that the elaborations should not be saturated with color or the trace can be damaged.
