Can you please give me more details? What carrier did you use? How much concentrate? Was your fragrance concentrate designed for the skin? Please wash off your skin. If you develop any reaction, see your doctor immediately.
Try Gamma-Nonalactone CAS No: 104-61-0. It's also known as Aldehyde C18, the Coconut Aldehyde... despite that it's not technically or chemically an Aldehyde. 🤭🤗🤭 Delta-Decalactone CAS No : 705-86-2 is another! 😍🥰😍
Welcome, and thank you for the question. Depending on the alcohol's grade and proof with determine its ability to mix with E.O.s. 🥰😍🥰 I suggest only using cosmetic or food grade alcohol.
I hope you're doing okay today I do want to bring to attention I wouldn't use that witch hazel from the product base. I use a non-alcoholic witch hazel which actually works perfectly to what I do
Thank you for taking time out to teach! I had a person say they would teach me but of course that's when they were trying to get my business and money with them. They created my fragrance but when I asked how to make it, they got upset and I still don't know how to make a fragrance that is supposed to be mine.😢 So thank you for being so giving and not selfish in your passion. 💗
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad I could help you with finding the right type of alcohol for essential oils. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
Good day, @km234able... my apologies for the delay. Yes... there are some AMAZING suppliers in your area. Check out PellWall. We will also be offering classes that will teach you HOW to make these exact accords so you can have control of these accords. And you will be able to add to them, or remove from them... and alter them to fit your artistic creative design! ❤❤❤❤❤ I hope this helps and thank you so much for your love! 🫶🫶🫶~ Alora
Good evening, @gioffri and welcome to the channel! That's an excellent question! Yes, depending on the amount of water you add back into the dilution will determine if the solution will separate. A good rule of thumb is to start with a level to oil ratio you know you know works... let's say out of 100 grams, you start with 20 grams fragrance concentrate and 60 grams perfumers alcohol (EverClear). From their, you add distilled water in 5 grams. If it goes clear, add more distilled water. Once you see the solution go cloudy, back out and add the rest in alcohol. It should go clear again. So... recap 20 Grams Fragrance concentrate 60 Grams Perfumers Alcohol or Everclear 5 grams distilled water... if clear, add another 5 grams of distilled water. If at 90 grams total you notice the solution going cloudy, add the remaining 10 grams in Perfumers alcohol. It should go back to clear. So, you will know that with this particular fragrance formula, you can only use 10% distilled water in the final product for a Eau de Parfum at 20% concentrate. Works for ALL tests. Just remember to use 100 grams as your base since that represents 100%. Easy to annotate! Hope this helps! ~ Alora
@@AloraDillon many thanks Alora, if I also wanted to add 10ml of glycerin to make aftershave, at what moment should I do it? Before or after adding water? The question is always to obtain a perfect solubility of the EO. Thanks
Creating an aftershave requires a balance of ingredients that not only provide a pleasant fragrance but also soothe, moisturize, and disinfect the skin post-shave. Here's a basic formula for a DIY aftershave base that you can use with a 1 to 3 percent fragrance ratio: Perfumer's Alcohol (Ethanol): 60-70% This serves as the primary solvent for the fragrance and also has disinfecting properties. Distilled Water: 20-28% To dilute and provide a less harsh application on the skin. Witch Hazel: 5-8% Offers astringent properties which can help close pores and soothe irritated skin. Aloe Vera Gel or Juice: 2-3% Provides moisturization and soothes the skin. Glycerin: 1-2% Serves as a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin, and giving the aftershave a smoother feel. Allantoin: 0.5-1% Helps soothe and protect the skin, especially after shaving. It can also help with skin hydration. Preservative (e.g., Phenoxyethanol or another suitable preservative): 0.5-1% Ensures the aftershave doesn't grow bacteria or mold over time. Fragrance: 1-3% Combine the perfumer's alcohol and distilled water in a clean container. Slowly add in the witch hazel, aloe vera, and glycerin, mixing well after each addition. Add in the allantoin, ensuring it dissolves completely. Add the preservative and mix thoroughly. Finally, incorporate your fragrance (1-3% based on your desired strength) and ensure a homogenous mixture. Store in a clean, airtight bottle. Before using, it's a good idea to shake well to ensure all ingredients are mixed. I hope this helps! 🥰😍🥰
I know, right? Unfortunately, I have extreme OCD tendencies and counting steps, drops, ice cubes, seconds for water coming out of the fridge, tapping one hand the same as the other... it's a nightmare to live with myself sometimes. <3 I've been working on trying to control these tendencies for so many years. But, occassionally, it just comes out and I don't realize it. <3 <3 <3

i like a mixture of naturals with synthetic. i use ac for the effect mixed with more than 25% naturals. thats modern perfumery. u cant smell different and modern with only naturals. i agree in using both, my personal preference.
Absolutely, @SeedKreations ! Blending naturals with synthetics truly offers the best of both worlds. It allows for modern, unique scents while retaining the depth of naturals. It's wonderful to hear your thoughtful approach to perfumery. Keep crafting and exploring! 😊🌸🔬~ Alora
Good day, Azah Hamid. We spoke about Karen Gilbert who is from England. If I'm not mistaken, she is a natural perfumer and exceptional, at that! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just discovered this channel and I am so excited to try and make this scent. I have a lot to learn. There are so many Aldehydics on the site , how do we know which one is in this formula?
Good day, @Carissab2u567 Thank you for your question!.We're in the process of preparing more fragrance formulations specifically designed for the drop-by-drop method. Stay tuned, as we'll be unveiling each of these formulations in individual LiveStream sessions. I hope this provides clarity and excitement for what's to come! 😍😍😍~ Alora
Good day, @xojassylove4023 and welcome to the channel! ❤ These base materials are made up of a mixture of Natural and Synthetic materials. As we do more livestreams, we reveal the formulations of our most used bases and accords! Please keep an eye out! ❤❤❤ ~ Alora
Hello there 👋, thank you for watching our video 💓💓💓. Yes, all four bases are proprietary mixtures, and they have certain percentage of synthetic raw materials. Happy perfuming!
Not sure if you’ll reply but how long does the perfume last? I’m a newbie and would like to start making my own perfumes as I can’t find a scent I’m looking for :( I’ve heard using a fixative is good to use to make the scent long lasting. Would you recommend?
Good day, @chuugi7769 and welcome to the channel! ❤ Excellent question.... Hate to use the typical answer of "it depends".... but unfortunately, that's the right answer. Depending on the level of concentrate you use in your final blend plus your own scent chemistry and your environment... meaning, is it hot, cold... etc. Is it humid or dry. Also, do you place it on your skin in a place that heats up quickly like your chest or do you place it on places that are less heated such as your clothes. There are so many factors that play into whether or not a fragrance lasts. Also, those who spray their wrists and wash their hands often during a day will find that the fragrance, or any fragrance, will not last as long as we naturally will wash higher up on our wrists when we wash our hands and wipe off the excess with a towel... which takes the fragrance with it. So... for a longer lasting smell that you can enjoy all day, might I suggest taking a clay pendent and spray the fragrance on it and let the natural warmth of your skin heat up the pendant and release the fragrance. This way, you can enjoy it longer AND it smells like what it should smell like out of the bottle. With our own skin chemistry changing every fragrance... since we are the final ingredient to every formula... and since, believe it or not, fragrance was never meant to be put on the skin... you can enjoy the fragrance you love using a clay pendant via necklace or even clay pendent earrings or bracelets. This will keep the fragrance clean and truer to what the fragrance would smell like straight from the bottle. I hope this was helpful... and sorry for the long response! I can ramble. LOL ❤❤❤ ~ Alora
