Brilliant blue water surrounds you the entire way to Key West.  And Key West Blue mica surrounds you with the same ethereal shade of blue. It has a subtle, silvery radiance that reflects the light and enhances its already vivid hue.

"Bright and crisp Key west makes a perfect, bright blue that mixes smoothly into soap batter, even if you forgot to pre-mix it with oil. Don't ask me how I know."
—-- Laura P. (verified)

If you haven't been lucky enough to go to the Keys yourself, let this gorgeous mica be your ticket to the experience. Every time we crack open a jar it makes us want to grab some sunscreen and hit the beach.

Love it!

The darker blue is just the Key West blue. The lighter one, I added a little Here Comes the Bride to lighten it up a bit. I suppose I could've just used less Key West blue to get a lighter color but I'm always doing the most with my micas.

Seriously, such a cool color In SOAP!

Any soap maker out there knows that Mad Mica's are like the Cadillac of the Mica world and we also know that fragrance has a lot to do with what a color will do within a soap. I used this color, as well as the Radioactive green, The Pow Pow Purple and Cheesy Poof and let me tell you what these colors have stuck and its by far the coolest bars of soap I've made to date. Mad Micas has proven their worth to me and I just keep coming back! Thank you guys so much for helping me bring my soaping to a whole new level!
