you want it thicker? You'd have to add pigment, not glycerin. Or maybe leave the cap off for a few weeks and let it dehydrate...then thicken it back to consistency with witch hazel or something like that. not sure that's a good idea though

What brand of Yellow are you using? Most Yellows are REALLY much thinner than other colors in some brands and they go in fine. I have a bottle of Radiant Yellow and Starbright both are almost water consistency.
