Anhydrous Products and Fragrance
When you’re creating anhydrous products like sticks and balms or salves, at what point do you add your fragrance? Because of flash points being lower, I typically try to let it cool, but too much of the product starts to harden. I’m worried about not getting even distribution. Do you typically just add it still when it’s fully melted and accept that some flash off will occur?
Thank you for any insights.

I cool till 80 degrees then add. Stick to your percentage too..it will get lost if you just sniff the beaker but it will be there when your product sets.

@Rockstargirl, thank you. When you say 80 degrees, do you mean celcius? I appreciate the clarification. I’m assuming celcius, but I wanted to be sure.
