Used it to make the cooling shower gel recipe. Easy to follow and it did have a nice cooling effect even during the hottest part of the summer.
I use these menthol crystals in my shower gel, for the feeling of freshness and coolness they provide. I will be looking for other recipes that contain menthol crystals because I am a big fan of the minty scent.
The intense, slightly sweet odor lingers long in the ointment. Dissolves completely in hot water or oil, leaves no residue. I would have liked if you had the peppermint crystal version as well. Very happy with the product!
Ideal to use to make after beach sprays and creams. Dissolves quickly and has no impurities. The crystals are fairly whole in the can, this helps to not release the volatile oil quickly on longer storage.
I used menthol crystals as an ingredient in a cooling spray for tired feet. It had immediate effect, plus the cooling sensation, a joy to use!
Disse krystaller er virkelig kraftfulde - wow. Emballagen er jeg dog ikke vild med - den er simpelthen for svær at åbne, synes jeg.
Jeg var overrasket over effekten fra disse krystaller. Der skal IKKE meget i en blanding for at opnå en god effekt.
An excellent remedy for inflammatory diseases of the upper respiratory tract (runny nose, pharyngitis, laryngitis, tracheitis, etc.) I use menthol products for lubrication and inhalation, as well as in the form of nose drops.
With creams prepared for leg pain, the cooling effect is guaranteed! I order it often because it is effective
Crystals are very good, at the moment for toothpaste made with products here! And very refreshing diluted for scalp massage, stimulates a lot! I recommend this product, very useful and for many uses! +++++++++++++++
I use these menthol crystals in the preparation of cooling, soothing, anti-inflammatory oil. It has strong cooling and invigorating, anesthetizing, pain-relieving effect.
Hello! I am coming back to you with an order, but would like to know if I can use menthol in Cp soap and if so, in what percentage.
