Candle Flavor Strawberry Yogurt, 25 ml

Candle Fragrance Strawberry Yogurt: A Sweet Treat for Your Senses (Cosmetic Use)

"Candle Fragrance Strawberry Yogurt" is a fragrance oil designed to evoke the delightful aroma of creamy yogurt blended with ripe, juicy strawberries. While its name suggests candle making, certain fragrance oils, when formulated appropriately and adhering to safety guidelines, can be used in specific cosmetic applications. It's crucial to understand that not all fragrance oils are safe for cosmetic use. This description focuses solely on safe applications within the realm of cosmetics, assuming the fragrance oil in question is certified for such use by the manufacturer.

Understanding Fragrance Oils in Cosmetics:

Fragrance oils are complex blends of synthetic aroma compounds and natural essential oils designed to create specific scents. When intended for cosmetic use, these oils undergo rigorous testing to ensure they are safe for skin contact at recommended concentrations. It's essential to only use fragrance oils specifically designated as "cosmetic grade" or "skin safe."  

Applications of Strawberry Yogurt Fragrance Oil in Cosmetics (with appropriate safety measures):

This fragrance oil can be used to add a pleasant scent to a limited range of cosmetic products, primarily those that are wash-off or have low skin contact time:

• Soaps: Cold process, hot process, and melt-and-pour soaps can benefit from the addition of this fragrance oil, providing a sweet and refreshing scent to cleansing routines.
• Bath Bombs and Bath Salts: Adding the fragrance to bath bombs or bath salts creates a luxurious and aromatic bath experience.
• Body Scrubs (wash-off type): Oil-based or sugar scrubs that are rinsed off after use can incorporate this fragrance oil.
• Hair Rinses (final rinse, low concentration): Some hair rinses, especially those that are immediately rinsed out, can tolerate a very low concentration of fragrance oil.

Detailed Breakdown of Cosmetic Applications:

• Soaps: The fragrance oil blends well with saponified oils and lye in soap making, providing a long-lasting scent.
• Bath Bombs and Bath Salts: The fragrance disperses in the warm bath water, creating an immersive aromatic experience.
• Body Scrubs: The fragrance enhances the exfoliating and cleansing experience of body scrubs.
• Hair Rinses: A very diluted solution can add a subtle scent to the hair. Prolonged contact with hair is not recommended.

Important Considerations and Restrictions:

• Skin Contact Time: This fragrance is best suited for wash-off products or those with minimal skin contact time. It is not recommended for leave-on products like lotions, creams, or lip balms due to the potential for skin irritation or sensitization.
• Concentration: Use fragrance oils at very low concentrations in cosmetics, typically below 1% and often much lower (0.1% - 0.5%). Always adhere to the manufacturer's recommended usage rates.
• Testing: Always conduct a small batch test before making a larger batch of any cosmetic product containing fragrance oil. This will help you determine the appropriate fragrance level and check for any unwanted reactions.
• Manufacturer's Safety Data: Consult the manufacturer's safety data sheet (SDS) for specific usage guidelines, safety precautions, and any restrictions related to cosmetic use.
• Not for Lip Products: Fragrance oils are generally not recommended for use in lip products due to the risk of ingestion and irritation of mucous membranes.
• Not for Children or Sensitive Skin: Avoid using fragrance oils in products intended for children or those with sensitive skin.
