Description

Candy Apple Red Mica adds a burst of passionate color to soaps and body care products, igniting your creativity with its bold and striking red hue. Based on synthetic mica, also known as Fluorphlogopite, this color is brighter and more stable than naturally occurring mica powder.

Candy Apple Red can also be used as a red colorant in cold process soaps at a rate of 4 teaspoons per pound, making it one of the most versatile pigments we offer. It shines with a bold, true red hue in melt-and-pour soaps and epoxy resin.

Color Testing Notes

In my opinion, Candy Apple is a must-have staple in any color collection. At 3–4 teaspoons per pound in cold process soap, it creates a gorgeous red with a slight berry tint. In clear melt and pour and resin, it transforms into a bright, true red that really pops. It’s one of the most versatile colors we offer - reliable, vibrant, and stunning in every medium!

Use Notes

This can make a fantastic bright red in CP soaps if used at 3-4 tsp. per pound in a white soap base. Green and yellow toned soap bases will throw off the color. We were very impressed with how red this mica could be at higher use rates in our testing. There was also no bleeding or migration!

Use Rate

  • CP Soap: 3-4 teaspoons per pound of oils.
  • MP Soap: .5 teaspoon per pound of soap base.

More or less can be added to achieve your desired color.
