Quebracho Brown Soap Dye
Shepherd Textiles Quebracho Brown is a plant-based natural dye developed specifically for use in cold process soap. Made from just three simple ingredients — quebracho wood extract, alum, and washing soda — it will give your soap a beautiful chestnut brown shade. It’s also easy to use: just dissolve it in the lye water solution, and then blend into the oil base to produce a bright and even color without dark spots or scratchy bits. Use 3 grams of Quebracho Brown per pound of soap for a chestnut shade. A one-ounce jar will dye more than 9 pounds of soap. For detailed instructions, please check out our main soap page at shepherdtextiles.com/soap.
Caution: For cold process soap only. Not for use in food or cosmetic products. Always wear a mask when working with dry pigments. Using more than the recommended amount of dye may result in dark-colored lather. Cure and store out of sunlight to prevent fading. Note that the soap batter will look very dark when first poured, but will lighten as it cures.
