It's not dye. It's Betadine cleansing liquid. You can find it at drugstores. It has iodine in it and when it hits your skin it turns a purplish color. Don;t get it on your clothes! It will stain them-but it;s an excellent antiseptic cleaner for cuts, burns whatever and you can use a small amountin a douche solution for internal cleansing. It's the same thing they put in packaged "medicated" douche.
