Hi. I’m very new to this. I would like to use natural colorants in melt and pour soap but they are made by cold infusions in oil. But I have learned adding oil to MP bases would essentially ruin the base if it’s anything more than a tsp per lb. However I have learned that you can be a little more generous with fragrance oils adding almost a TBS per lb. Is there a reason why you can add more fragrance oils without ruining the base vs regular oils. Also is making cold infusions with fragrance oils a bad idea?
