Key West Blue Mica
Key West Blue Mica
Ket West™
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.

Customer Reviews
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!
This is an amzing review of our company! Thank you so much for sharing. Your soap is super cool!! Can't wait to see more of your soaps!
This is the perfect bright blue. I've used it in cold-process soap many times. It's very versatile.
This blue is a BEAUTIFUL OCEAN color. One of my most favorites. It pairs well with so many colors and makes such pretty ocean inspired products! Mixes easily into my soaps and scrubs and doesn't take much mica to achieve a BEAUTIFUL OCEAN BLUE. I hope you keep this beauty around!
Wonderful color for Ocean themed projects. Love it!
Thus key west is a very beautiful hue. It will look lovely in my products as I embark on a new business venture.
