IwantItgreen Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have BCN lemon pucker and CS lavender, how should I mix them to make lemon lavender? 50/50, 25/75, 75/25? Anyone done this before? TIA :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmhoneybear Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 When I did a blend of my own, I did it 50/50, but then I found Candlewic's and Lonestar's Lemon Lavender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Scented (moderator here) reminded me the other day to do the q-tip test when I want to try blending. If you dip 2 q-tips, that's a 50/50 blend. If you use 4 q-tips (say, 1 lemon and 3 lavender) that's a 25/75 blend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara AL Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I made Lemon Lavender soap last month 2 parts Lemon Pucker to 1 part Lavender.I did 1.2 ounces of Lemon Pucker to .6 Tennessee Candle's True Lavender to 38 ounces of Oils for soap.HTHBarbara AL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
number2of7 Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 IMO it matters whether you want Lemon Lavender or Lemon & Lavender...If you want Lemon Lavender, then you would want more lavender than lemon, with lemon being the adjective -- to me the name says that your lavender has been spritzed with lemonIf you want Lemon & Lavender, then a 50/50 blend -- the "&" symbol says equal partsMaybe I'm anal, but that's how I expect a scent to be if I'm shopping for one...

IwantItgreen Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 Thanks everyone, I forgot about the q-tip test so will try that! I'll have to see if I like Lemon Lavender or Lemon & Lavender! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
