Ruina Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Newbie here wanting to make this for holiday gift. How's the best way to incorporate the FO & colorants since I don't want to use the menthol crystals? I think I read about some salts being difficult to color?

Ruina Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 Anyone? Is it bad form asking for help with someone else's recipe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkainePSP Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 If it were me I would follow the recipe as it says except I would exclude the menthol crystals. If you are using the eo's just mix them as it says minus the crystals and follow through with the recipe. I would also add my color to the eo mix or if you are not using the eo's and are using fo's instead mix the fo with the colorant and then continue with the recipe.Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruina Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 Thank you Kelly. Really appreciate your input.The recipe called for the EO/FO to be mixed with the crystal and since I don't want the citric acid to start fizzing, I'm not sure at which point to add the scent & the citric. I'll just have to play with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AkainePSP Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 According to the recipe:Mix everything except the citric, melt the menthol crystals and mix with EOs, then blend with dry ingredients, add citric last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
