Green Apple liquid pigment ultra 10 ml

A crisp green apple shade for transparent and gel-based formulations

The Green Apple liquid pigment ultra in a compact 10 ml bottle is designed for sample batches and small home projects where testing a shade before committing to larger production really matters. This size suits makers working on individual pieces or short runs who don't want to purchase liters at once. The dye belongs to the Pigment Liquid ULTRA Dyes line, a group of concentrated liquid colorants known for strong tinting strength and convenient dosing without any preliminary dilution.

The main use of this type of pigment lies in transparent and semi-transparent formulas where a clean, vivid color without cloudiness is essential. Typical applications include shower gels, liquid soap, gel shampoos, bath bombs with a clear gel layer, and decorative candles in glass containers where the color needs to show through the wax. Another popular field is creative crafts - epoxy resin art, slime making, aroma lamp liquids, and decorative interior gels. It can also be used in solid opaque soap bases, though that is a less common and less economical choice compared to dedicated solid pigments.

The pigment blends well with most surfactants, gel bases, glycerin, and water-glycerin mixtures. It should be introduced at the final stage of production once the main mass has cooled to around 35-45 degrees Celsius, which prevents color degradation from heat and ensures even distribution throughout the batch. Dosage depends on the desired intensity - a few drops per 100 ml of finished base is usually enough, and it is best to start with a minimal amount and gradually increase it until the target shade is reached.

For more complex visual effects, this dye is often combined with pearlescent additives. Pearl Liquid Metallic Pearl 1 L adds soft shimmer and depth, while Silver Liquid Metallic Pearl 1 L introduces a cool metallic reflection that pairs nicely with the apple-green tone. In skincare recipes, the pigment can be paired with botanical extracts - Black Willow Bark Extract 100 ml works well in toning gels and lotions without distorting the declared color of the product.

Store the dye in a tightly closed container, away from direct sunlight and heat, in a cool dark place to preserve color stability over time. Once opened, use the contents within a reasonable period and keep the bottle free from water or foreign substances. Shake the bottle gently before use so the pigment disperses evenly throughout the liquid.

Finally mix in the fragrance oil, stir thoroughly, and pour the finished gel into a clean bottle, letting it settle for a few hours before use.
