How
To Cut Oil
1. fill
1/2 of a bottle with strong uncut oil.
2.
fill the other 1/2 with cutting oil (dpg)
3.
gently shake.
If
oil is still too strong, use less fragrance
and
more cutting oil.
EVERY
FRAGRANCE is different in strength.
You
may cut "Musk" once and
"Gardenia"
several times. It's up to you.
You
can test for a skin reaction
by
placing a few drops of oil
on
either the underside of
your
wrist or inside elbow.
Leave
on for 24 hours,
then
take a look see.

For
Body Use
Place
a drop of "uncut"
oil
on your wrist -
Does
it burn?
Then
you need to dilute
"cut"
it.
Does
just one or two drops
smell
so strong, it is annoying
to
wear all day?
Then
you need to dilute
"cut"
it.
(It
is best to cut ALL oils
for
body use
and
for retail sales)

What
is?

"Uncut"
oils are strong, just the way
the
perfume manufacturing houses
make
them.
They
can be too strong smelling
for
body use or may burn the skin.
It
is recommended you "cut" them
to
wear directly on your skin.
"Uncut"
oils are used for making candles,
soaps,
lotions, all body and bath,
and
any other craft project that requires
the
"stronger" scent.
Although
"cut" oils work for candles etc.,
Why
put dpg in your candle and soap?
And
"cut" oils are weaker in strength.
|
"Cut"
oils are the "uncut"
oil
but dpg cutting oil has
been
added.
We
"cut" our oils by 1 time.
You
can add more dpg if you like.
Cutting
the oil is like diluting
it's
strength. Like adding water
to
frozen orange juice
concentrate.
Add as much
as
you like.
Once
the oil is cut, it is now
safe
for wearing on your skin
without
burning and the
smell
is weaker.

For
Use In Aroma Oil Burners
It does not matter
if you use
"uncut" oil or
"cut" oil in your aroma lamps.
You should be filling
the dish with water
to the top and
then add a few drops
of oil - "uncut
or "cut".
The water is going
to dilute it anyway.

Frequently
Asked Questions
| How much oil do
I use to make soap, candles etc.? |
I know you want me to tell you to use 1 oz
of oil
to x amount of product. Sorry, can
not do.
Every soap base, candle wax, lotion etc.
has a
different threshold for oil absorption.
Every person has a
different tolerance of
fragrance strength.
What is weak to me, may be
too strong for you.
The best way is to start SMALL AMOUNT, you
can
always add more.
Also your "base" product should have a
recommendation.
Once you experiment, it will all come together! |
| Do I cut them to
make soap, candles? |
No |
| Do I cut them to
wear on my skin? |
Good idea. Especially if you re-bottle
to sell. |
| Do you sell the
cutting oil? |
Yes - see top of this page |
| What about to make
spray mists to sell? |
Mix (aprox) 1/4 oz uncut fragrance oil with
aprox 8 oz plain water from your sink or
buy
spring water or whatever.
Then mix in aprox 1 teaspoon or more of regular
alcohol or regular vodka. This will mix the
water and oil together.
Or you may find a company that sells
pre-mixed spray base. |
| What are the oils
flash points? |
All oils have at least a 200 degree flash
point. |
