Really love this color

Only tried in Paraffin/Soy blends but it has amazing color saturation. Probably my favorite so far.

Great colour! Really saturated

Really nice shade of purple! Definitely recommend! Only downside is that the plastic dropper tip can dissolve over about a year's time - however, I have found this to be the case with all shades of the liquid dye.

More gray/brown than purple

I'm using soy, so I thought that using just a few drops would turn it into a nice lilac/pastel purple color. However, ended up with a muddy gray with a slight purple tint. I wouldn't say it ruined my batch of candles, however, it definitely threw my color scheme off.
