I made a 100% CO soap with 20% super fat by CP. after trace I added dhavanam aroma oil (Artemisia Pallens) as I had that available. I do not know the composition of that, the label just said natural aroma oil. It’s not EO. When I added that, the entire aroma oil changed to deep orange colour. I mixed it and poured it in mould. once the soap is set, now the colour is off white and there is no trace of orange. What I am wondering is
(1) whether it’s normal for aroma oil to change colour?
(2) when I cut the soap, it’s very oily and my hand was coated with oil as well as the mould. Why is it so? It’s hardly 6 hours since I made that soap so I didn’t test it. But it’s hard.
thank you in advance.
