Guest guest Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 I have just posted a private page on my web site to another group. It contains photos of skin reactions to expressed bergamot oil. Only this link will reach it. http://www.aromamedical.com/special.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 Lordy me, what horrible marks, poor women. While making some solid perfumes today, I came up with a question re. citrus EOs and photsensitations - do heat have any effect on that at all?? I mean, when citrus EOs are blended into the hot oil and waxes, does some of the chemicals that causes this ill effect vaporise? Maybee a stupid question, but I'm kind of clueless about the finer aspects chemistry;-) Ylva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 In the case of pure expressed bergamot, heating the oil simply drives off the volatile fractions. The wax containing the photosensitisers will remain in the product at the same volume it was added in the first place.
