I saw some really good little plastic squeeze bottles on someone's site or
someone's pictures, they were already pre-mixed.  Who was that and where did
you get the little squeeze bottles?  They look great for the job.  Smart
idea.

I find those colurs do have quite a bit of particulate in
them which gives the spotting.  I have found that having
them premixed in oil and in squeeze bottles allows the
particualtes to sink to the bottom and if you are reasonably
careful they can stay in the bottle and not end up in your
soap
The violet is particularly prone to this
