Hi all, a bit from left field I know, but has anyone tried macerating cucumber in a carrier oil?
If you have does it last, as I am worried it may go mouldy after a while.
Any suggestions or information would be welcome.

Thanks as always guys, dont know what I would do without you.

I put pureed vegetables/fruits in at trace & have never had anything go moldy.
I've done:
cucumber, avocado, tomato, apple, pumpkin, blueberry (turns gray), strawberry (turned brown), spinach, peas (turned brown), and that's all I can think of right now because I haven't had my coffee.

Vegetables are water based. I don't think you'll get much if you macerate them in oil. I would pureed them as well and add them to your CP soap that way.
