Orange essential oil is a popular way to incorporate orange into bath and beauty products. There are several varieties, including 10X Orange Essential OilOrange Valencia Essential OilRed Brazilian Mandarin Essential Oil and Tangerine Essential Oil. Click here to learn more about the different types of orange essential oil, and find out which one is best for your project.

In addition to a citrusy scent, the essential oils give products a beautiful orange color. In the Creamy Orange Cold Process Tutorial is made with 10X Orange Essential Oil. It acts as both the colorant and fragrance, making it a great project for beginners. The 10X Orange Essential Oil is my favorite type of essential oil for cold process soap. Unlike traditional citrus essential oils, it is super concentrated, so it sticks in cold process soap and smells strong.

10X Orange Essential Oil gives the Creamy Orange Cold Process a lovely warm hue. 

In the Juicy Orange & Sweet Rose Cold Process Tutorial10x Orange Essential Oil and paprika are added to a portion of the batter. The two ingredients create a vibrant orange color. The orange soap is used to create an in-the-pot swirl. Ribbon cut orange peels and rose petals are placed on top of the loaf for color and texture.

Another great color option is the Tangerine Wow! Colorant. In the Fall Sherbet Cold Process Soap, it’s used alongside Apricot Blush (now discontinued) for a soft orange hue. If you’d like to create a similar color, I would recommend mixing the Tangerine Wow! Colorant with Peach Shimmer Mica. Used by itself, Tangerine Wow! makes a vibrant orange color, as shown in the Monarch Butterfly Swirl Cold Process Tutorial.

In the Cleansing Orange Spice Salt Scrub Tutorial, a variety of orange ingredients create an exfoliating scrub. Orange peel and Racing Stripe Orange Mica give the scrub color, while a combination of 10X Orange Essential Oil and Cinnamon Sticks Fragrance Oil create a citrusy and spicy scent. It’s perfect for fall and holiday seasons.

Creamsicle Fragrance Oil is another scrumptious orange scent. It features notes of warm vanilla and fresh citrus. In the Orange Creamsicle Bath Truffle, Creamsicle Fragrance Oil and Coral Orange LaBomb Colorant create the look of the classic ice cream treat. It also contains cocoa butter, which gives the bath water plenty of skin-loving properties. Just be careful when exiting the tub, as the oil can make the tub slippery. =)

I can’t wait to see all your orange projects! Tag your photos with #SoaptheRainbow on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook for a chance to win a $10 Bramble Berry gift certificate.
