General Tips


*Some fragrance oils and essential oils have colour of their own, so add them before you add the colourant. Liquid food colours work perfectly.

* If you are allergic to odours use nose mask

* Use protective hand gloves on both hands

*When you want to prepare a large volume like say 50liters, use 50.5 litres instead to avoid overspill.

*Measure the recipes accurately to avoid production error.

* Dissolve the ingredients well to avoid lumps in the final product

* Chemical salts look similar, so label all salt recipes to avoid misplacement during production

* Know the difference between water based color and oil based colour
