  • Dermal calculator/chart for topical terpenes….does it exist?

    I know there are calculators for Essential oils…but does something similar exist for singulated terpenes…in a topical context?

    Not that I’ve ever seen. What would you expect from such a calculator? What would the input/output be?

      Input: individual terpenes, output: GRAS combined dermal limits.

    If by GRAS you mean Generally Recognized As Safe, I haven’t found any terpene in that list. Could you please share the essential oils calculator? There’s so much deviation in natural oil’s compositions, that I’m curious to know what they are calculating 🙂
