Question

Can Myrrh Absolute, Tuberose Absolute, and Siam Benzoin Resinoid be dissolved in Fractionated Coconut Oil?

Answer

Based on general formulation knowledge, absolutes and resinoids like Myrrh Absolute, Tuberose Absolute, and Benzoin Resinoid (including Sumatra, UK, and China Liquid varieties) are generally soluble in oils, including Fractionated Coconut Oil. However, the degree of solubility can depend on the specific concentration used and the exact composition of the absolute or resinoid. It is always recommended to perform a small test batch to confirm solubility before formulating on a larger scale.
