Notes:
- Maybe use annatto-infused olive oil, for extra orange effect!
- If adding honey, mix with a wee bit of distilled water in a glass and pop it in the microwave for 2 seconds to make it a watery honey mix. It is easier to blend into the soap batter that way.
- For extra herbal flair, add dried calendula flower petals to the top!
- Simi's natural orange color strategy for 2.5 lb soap batch:
- 1 Tablespoon / 9 grams of paprika powder blended into oils
- Simi's “Citrus Burst” Essential Oil Blend for 2.5 lb soap batch:
- 26 grams orange 10x EO (50%)
- 13 g bergamot EO (25%)
