Teach Soap

Just wondering if anyone has used any of wsp's lip safe fragrance oils. I ordered the mango papaya and the orange cream to make some lip balms with and was wondering if it gives the lip balm a strange taste or if it is no different than "flavor" oils. They can be used in lip balms up to 3%

from my understanding, all "flavoring oils" are just fragrance oils.

"Despite their name, flavor oils do not offer any real flavor. They are actually highly concentrated food safe fragrance oils. The addition of a sweetener can greatly enhances the "flavor", though. Recommended usage rate is 1-3%. Your recipe can be multiplied by .01 -.03 to determine the amount of the flavor oil you should add." -- http://www.elementsbathandbody.com/Flav ... c-193.html

The sense of smell and taste are closely related so the concentrated fragrance oil "tricks" the tongue into thinking it's tasting. Ever notice when you have a clogged nose your food doesn't taste as good? So the "flavor" should be just fine! Good luck!
