  Removing the smell of unrefined oils

  Posted by lavendercushionz on May 29, 2024 at 4:59 am

  Hello everyone,

  I’m currently making body scrubs for sensitive skin, using unrefined oils. Unfortunately, they do have a distinguished smell that I just cannot ignore.

  I really don’t want to add any fragrance or essential oils.

  Can you guys please recommend any ingredients that could help in covering the smell?

  Thank you in advance.

  Yes, I have faced this issue. My immediate thoughts are:

  (1) Choose unrefined oils that have smells you and your customers can live with. That’s why I did with the products I was manufacturing and exporting globally.

  (2) Any ingredients that could help in covering the smell are going to introduce their new issues. They are probably going to synthetics, which introduces a new set of issues.
