Guest guest Posted February 28, 2000 Report Share Posted February 28, 2000 Bren~ I use jojoba oil for my solid perfume as it has a very long shelf life. A bit more expensive but well worth it if you plan on making a lot of solid perfumes!

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2000 Report Share Posted February 28, 2000 Thanks for all the replies, everyone seems to agree that it's rancidity. Any suggestions on what oil would not go rancid as quick as soybean oil? The Vitamin E will be tried. Anything less expensive than vitamin E to preserve? Thanks Bren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the wax just too hard - >anyone? Anyone? > >Third - THANKS! The wax alone is FAR too hard.. a blend that you'd use for lip gloss would work well. The recent SELF magazine article that referred to our site recommended 2 parts jojoba to one part beeswax (by volume, not weight, they were working in teaspoonsful.) I'd strongly suggest either jojoba or Fractionated coconut oil, since they won't go rancid... when we are doing perfumery we tend to use the more costly oils, and we want them to last...not be spoiled by a carrier oil going rancid.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2001 Report Share Posted August 31, 2001 Hi Marge! Thanks for your reply. I think I read that article in Self. How wonderful! I bet I even have it here - somewhere. How did you get the write-up in the mag? Just curious - I'd be so proud to have my little company listed in lit somewhere - lol Thanks again!

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 Hi , I just buy the pre-made soild perfume base and add fragrance oil to it. I personally really like the 2 oz. tin containers, they are great for solid perfume. To use, you just dab the solid perfume behind your ears, on your wrists, or wherever you want and you smell nice all day long. R.

Guest guest Posted October 31, 2002 Report Share Posted October 31, 2002 How do you make solid perfume and how do you use it? Are you looking for a roll on type or a perfume in a deodorant style bottle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
