    thanks belassi on the fast response ,i just wanted to hear a pro opinion someone with experience if its sound reasonable,just for example i did a similar process with a factory in canada who asked for lower rates per lab hour but asked me to order minimum of 50 gallons if i liked the batch .im going commercial but starting “small” 25 gallons if thats help understanding

    thank you guys on all of your great answers
    first thing i will do is to go to the supplier but to be fair he did tell me upfront that some notes are “light”and  will not last and some will stay for quite a while

    got it :) so i will look for a talc +tapioca stretch combo its sounds the best of two worlds. the mica part yes i think i didnt explain myself well i want this powder to be sparkly a little bit so you can apply it also on the decolte {above the chest }and shoulders and get a glow and smell divine ;)thank you johnb so much

    May 23, 2017 at 4:06 pm in reply to: fragrance powders

    johnb first thank you on your explanation :) you make it to a non native speaker easy to understand,i heard about the j&j lawsuit  in the last two years i read also about the possibility that there are asbestos leftovers in the talc and it was proven that the talc selling today and for the last years does not include it anymore. about the powders another one i was offered is lycopodium powder {we use it in my country to babies tush} are you familiar with it?i will try to find the tapioca stretch supply can i add a little bit of mica to it{to the tapioca stretch}?i want little bit of a sparkle so talc will be the less tend to oxidation ? is there other ways instead of fragrances oils?

    wow johnb thank you so much  :) i appreciate it ,i understood the process perfectly are all  fragrance powders made from talc ?because one of the suppliers answer back to me and says they do not use talc they use corn starch ,does it make sense?i do worry about the oxidation part you mention are all powders form do that?again i want to say thank you!
