Staff Answer You can use fruit powders in melt and pour soap. Be careful to not use too much as some can provide a scratchy texture.

Yep ! I would recommend 1 - 10 % orange powder in your soap ! :D

I actually use this as an all natural colorant. I put it in my oil and infuse the root powder so that I can have all the benefits without the grainy texture. You can use the actual powder but use a small amount and mix VERY well. Hope this helps! -- Jamie

I've used this to color oil as well but I didn't care for the slightly scratchy feeling some of the others mentioned. I chose to strain the oil through a coffee filter and I had no more issues.

Posted By: Celestina | Date: October 03, 2013

(4) Found this helpful. Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

Yes! I always keep it under 10% though, just to keep it from getting to grainy and scratchy! But the color is lovely!

"Perfect for Scrubs"

COMMENTS: I use this Orange Powder mostly for my 'Orange Grove' salt scrubs. It adds great texture to the scrub and also imparts a light scent of oranges. It works great with the Satsuma fragrance oil. I don't notice a scent in Cold Process Soap though. If you're looking for something to make soap look like sand for beach themed soaps, this works great!

"Very fine exfoliate. "

COMMENTS: I made sugar scrub cube with this, I wanted more grainy feeling but it is great powder for face and sensitive skin. I was expecting orange smell but it doesn't smell like orange. I added wild orange essential oil. You can still smell orange powder. I didn't like at first but it grown on me that it is earthy and calming.

"Nice botanical"

COMMENTS: I've used this in a citrus cp soap, I'm happy with it. If you were to add the powder to your batter while it was dry, it would be exfoliating. However, I soak my orange powder in the water for a few hours before I add the lye, and it softens up nicely and gives the soap an orange color. I will buy this again, I'm pleased with it!

	"Love the color"
COMMENTS: I use the orange powder in CP soap to color it. I mix it with a little of the melted oils before adding at trace and it left my soap with a beautiful orange color. I didn't notice any grittiness or specks as I have with some other colorant powders. It doesn't smell like orange like I thought it might, and didn't affect the fragrance of the soap at all.

"Rich scent"

COMMENTS: This orange powder smells like warm unsweetened orange juice concentrate, bitter, not sweet or juicy at all. I won’t take away any stars for that. I bought this to use in conjunction with orange essential oil in my products, the oil should dominate the overall smell. Five stars because I am very happy with it and there is nothing wrong with it.
