Christmas cactus disease?

Hi all,

i have had this schlumbergera truncata for about 6 months and no issues. I just looked at the base and noticed there's a white powdery substance over the base. Anyone know what it could be? And how should I treat it? When I touch it, it rubs off like chalk and it's not fluffy like I've heard mealy bug is.

Thanks!!

Edit: I have on hand - green earth insecticidal soap, should I use this?
