How to create Madder, Alkanet, Indigo & Annatto infused oils and naturally colour cold process soap

So this video is a touch on the long side! Grab a drink and stick with it though, as I cover a lot today!

Today we will be showing you how we create a selection of infused oils and how we then use those infused oils to create a selection of beautiful, natural colours in cold process soap.

In the first part of today's video we will be using Alkanet root, Annatto seeds, Indigo powder and Madder root powder and infusing them into Olive Oil. We will be using the quick method, which involves using a slow cooker to gently heat the infusions and we will be covering every step of how we prepare these oils. We cover how much plant material we use, how to prepare the infusions and we show you us covering every step of the process.

In the second part of the video, we show you us creating bars of soap using the infused oils. We create some beautiful pink, purple and yellow shades in the soaps and the best thing is, they are entirely natural colourants! We also show you how well the colours stick after an eight week cure time and explain a little about how to try and ensure you get the best, brightest colours from your ingredients.
