Essential Therapeutics Essential Oil Frankincense 10ml

When should you use Disper or Essential Solubiliser? It is partly a matter of personal preference. Disper is most suited for application to mucous membranes (preparations for eye and throat complaints can be made with Disper, for example). It is a totally natural emulsifier made from soy lecithin that specifically works with essential oils. It makes a cloudy emulsion that can be of use in any type of application. Essential Solubiliser is a naturally-derived emulsifier that is quite benign & non-toxic and is used in numerous products with a natural stance. Essential Solubiliser works both with vegetable oils and essential oils. Using just essential oils, you can create a totally clear solution. Essential Solubiliser stands out more for its use in creating bath treatments, spray preparations and the like - but it is not recommended for use in the eyes nor for ingestion. To use, mix 10 drops (or parts) of Disper to each drop (or part) of essential oil used. Always mix essential oil and Disper together first, before adding to water. When added to water, a milky emulsion forms that remains stable over time. Sample formula – Hydrating Mist Spray – for 100mL Ingredients: Dry Skin Synergy – 16 drops (0.5mL) Disper – 160 drops (5mL) Glycerine – 3mL Aloe 10x concentrate – 10mL Spring water – 82 mL Citricidal (preservative) – 10 drops (0.3mL) Directions: Mix Dry Skin Synergy oil blend into Disper. Mix all other ingredients together, add Disper mixture and blend well. Pour into a cobalt blue 100mL spray bottle.

For our “Essential Fatty Acid” oils, we recommend the addition of four drops of Amiox (or 0.1%) for every 100mL of oil. Simply add the Amiox and shake the bottle until mixed. Amiox can also be added to natural creams and lotions for its beneficial antioxidant or free radical scavenging properties. Up to 1.0% (or 32 drops per 100mL) can be added for excellent “anti-aging” effects.

A blend of Roman Chamomile, Damask Rose and True Lavender hydrosols. As a refreshing mist spray: On the face: As an uplifting facial toner, make-up fixative or after shave. On the hair: To renew body and lustre and to impart a beautiful but subtle fragrance. On the body: To refresh, hydrate, and cool as well as to lightly fragrance the skin with these natural perfumes. In facial masques: Aromatic hydrosols are an excellent addition to active clay masques, imparting their balancing, therapeutic properties to the treatment.

Amigel & Laponite Gel - Which gel is better to use?  It is often just a matter of personal preference. Amigel will accept a higher amount of additional ingredients, if this is required. It can also be thinned down to a more water-like consistency. Amigel also has a relatively ‘slippery’ feel on the skin. Laponite creates a stiffer gel with a nice “astringent” feel when applied. If 15% or less of additional ingredients are to be added, Laponite is a fine choice. Try experimenting with both gels! Amigel can be diluted to an almost water-like consistency. At a concentration of only 0.2% (that would be one part Amigel to nine parts water), up to 10% of additional ingredients can be added, to create a sprayable or pumpable preparation. Or, you can create a pumpable ‘serum’ preparation by using a 1% concentration of Amigel (this would be one part Amigel to one part water). In making your own creams and lotions, Amigel can be added to help stabilise and emulsify oily ingredients, and gives a beautiful “skin feel” to your creams as well.
