Using Sugar Fix in CP Soap

Yes, mixing Sugar Fix with the fragrance oil before adding it to your Cold Process (CP) soap batter is the correct method of using this product according to its instructions. Sugar Fix is designed as a fragrance fixative to help extend the lifespan of scents.

However, it's important to understand that Cold Process soap is a challenging environment for fragrances. The high pH of the soap batter and the saponification process itself can degrade many fragrance compounds, causing the scent to fade or change over time.

While using a fixative like Sugar Fix is intended to help, its effectiveness in significantly prolonging the scent in CP soap can be limited compared to other applications like lotions or body sprays. Using it correctly by pre-mixing with the fragrance is the best approach if you wish to try and improve scent longevity in your CP soap.
