Lavender Water Voile

by Gina

In the recipe above, you only use water and castor oil and essential oil.


I am looking for a recipe for colognes that doesn't use alcohol.

I am intrigued by this recipe of voile.

Does the oil mix with the water? What would be its shelf life, since it uses no preservatives? Please let me know.

I was even thinking about making a cologne using rose water as a base and adding essential oils to it, but I don't think the oils would mix with the
water. What do you think?

Thank you so much for your time and help,



Hugs

Gina

Hi Gina,

nice to have you here.

For this question:
"Does the oil mix with the water? What would be its shelf life, since it uses no preservatives?"

the answer:
No, oil not mixed with water. of course you'll have to shake it bf use. The shelf life? I am sorry I don't know about this.

For this one:
"I was even thinking about making a cologne using rose water as a base and adding essential oils to it, but I don't think the oils would mix with the
water. What do you think?"

IMO, rose water is use as facial toner. not sure if you can use this as cologne based.

But you can use witch hazel instead of vodka in creating cologne.

Why don't you try our witch hazel contain only 14% alcohol with 86% Witch Hazel Extract. It is less lower alcohol than other commercial Witch Hazel extracts.

otherwise option for perfume than cologne. I have include recipes using carrier oil.
