I think IFRA is full of crap! There’s a lot of talk of percentages with IFRA. here’s a question about percentages. What percentage of IFRA board members own stock in the molecules they say to use instead of the raw material they have banned? Let me guess. No comment.
1. What is the concentration of oils in your fragrance oil formula? Is it neat (100%) or is it diluted with alcohol to like 20%? - Which leads me to next question: 2. If the frangrance oil concentrate has no alcohol how can you make this water based without a preservative? Unless the fragnrace oil only ue AC's and no EO...? Thanks!
Thank you! I going to try this since I have Lanolin on hand. But can I substitute the isopropyl myrestate with cetyl alcohol since that's what I have on hand ? Love your clear video, thank you! ❤
Thanks for the great video - question - I've mostly used mica's and oxides in products, but have just started looking at bath and body product creation - and I keep seeing "Red Lake" or "Blue Lake" - what do these terms mean? Do you have a video on those/sell those?
I believe the whole IFRA thing is about money somehow. Im betting because oakmoss was such a good compound that expensive fragrance companies could not hardly beat even a cheap drugstore fragrance because it had oakmoss. I bet it was to pave the way for expensive fragrance companies to come along and take your money that you would have spent happily on the cheap stuff. Since the cheap stuff got worse, the "good" stuff, the expensive stuff is available for you to buy. SOmething like that. Like maybe the good synthetic oakmoss is expensive and only expensive brands might be using it so its like a war on fragrances and between fragrances. This all bothers me especially because oakmoss was what got me into fragrances as a kid. I smelled that oakmoss and got addicted to dads aftershaves and stuff back in the 90s.
