I am looking to do a mix in CP soap of citrus and plumeria (need to try one of my samples I have) and I am wondering if the plumeria is enough to anchor the citrus? If there is something else that would mix with plumeria I am open for suggestions. Ty.

What type of a citrus? Is it FO or EO? Folded or straight?

Hi Soapbuddy,
What I have on hand is tangerine FO. I am looking to get an order into BB (as soon as I weigh out my oils so I know what I need). If there is something else that would blend better with it I would be willing to try most anything. My smeller is not that great - remember the kelp and cucumber-melon mix? :oops:

Heck, I can't even smell skunk! So I really appreciate the help in this area.

Some citrus oils tend to fade in soap. I'm not sure about an FO though. I would try it in a small batch and see. If you have any Litsea EO, in a small amount, it would help as an anchor.
