Answer
Difference between Flora Solve and Flora Fix
Flora Solve™ Clear and Flora Fix serve different purposes in formulations:
- Flora Solve™ Clear is a fragrance solubilizer. Its main function is to help dissolve fragrance oils or essential oils into water or water-based gels, allowing you to create clear, stable liquid formulations without using alcohol.
- Flora Fix is a fragrance fixative. Its purpose is to help the scent last longer by reducing the evaporation rate of the fragrance.
Can they be used together?
Yes, you can use Flora Solve™ Clear and Flora Fix together if your formulation requires both functions: dissolving the fragrance in a water-based system and extending the fragrance's longevity.
Usage Proportions
- For Flora Solve™ Clear, the recommended usage ratio is typically 2-5 parts Flora Solve™ Clear to 1 part fragrance (perfume or essential oil). The exact ratio needed can vary depending on the specific fragrance being used.
- For Flora Fix, please refer to the product details provided where it is sold for specific usage recommendations.
