Kaolin clay is often used to anchor scent. To make a clay/scent slurry, simply add clay directly to the fragrance oil, then blend it in really well with a mini mixer. A great usage rate when adding clay directly to fragrance oils is anywhere between .5 TBS to 2 TBS per pound of batch oils.
Clay should be mixed with water before adding to cold process soap. Mixing well before adding to soap will help prevent clumps or streaks. Mix 1 part clay to 1 part water until fully saturated then add the mixture to your soap.
