  • Fragnances and formulating in 60 degrees

    Hi!

    I have a problem with adding fragnance to my formula.

    I am making shampoo bars by melting and pouring to the moulds. I am adding fragnances and essential oils in 60*, beacuse in lower temperatures my formula is getting too thick to pour it properly.

    I know that I shouldn’t add fragnance in that high temperature, but right know I do not have too much choice. To be honest I don’t smell any changes in the fragnance and essential oils, but do you think it’s safe to add them in this temperature?

    I will be very grateful for your thoughts. 🙂

    To me it usually doesn’t really matter. The only problem is quicker evaporation of fragrance, so you would need bigger amount of the fragrance.
