friendlyMOM Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I was wondering if there is a way to make home fragrance oils? Like they sell in the stores where you put a few drops in the burner, I thought I saw a recipe for it a while back but now not even sure I did or not!Is there a way to mix FO with something to make some and put in dropper bottles?

Kelly Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Some places sell bases to make or you could use DPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friendlyMOM Posted October 26, 2007 Author Share Posted October 26, 2007 Sorry to sound dumb but what is DPG? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Dipropylene Glycol (commonly known as DPG)A colorless, odorless, cosmetic grade liquid.Mix with fragrance oil to make incense! Also works for making your own Liquid Potpourri for use in simmering pots, light bulb rings, and refreshing dry potpourri! Incense Instruction SheetPotpourri Instruction SheetNote: This item is skin safe. INCI name: Dipropylene GlycolIt can be used in a wide variety of formulations including * Roll on perfumes * Lotions & creams * Deodorants & antiperspirants * Bath & shower products * Hair care & shaving products (excerpt from www.bittercreek.com) I'll see if I can find the online store that has a base and give you the link for that too.

Kelly Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Glad I could help! I have not tried their base so feel free to let me know how you like it after you try it out. I've been tempted to try it but just haven't gotten around to it yet.~Kelly~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
