Water is the issue as sandalore is insoluble in water. I'm no chemist but I imagine some of it would not be dissolved. I'm just using propylene glycol and alcohol for this reason.

applying straight alcohol based topical on your scalp ? sh*t that must burns and smell like hell ?

Hey guys I am thinking about giving it a try but I am allergic to PG so I think I will try to use it with a mix of KB concentrate (you know the thing people used for RU) and ethanol.
What do you think of it? Also which concentration of sandalwood should I use?

Thank you!

Did you drop in the sandalore and just let it diffuse? Or did you stir it?

Seems you're having trouble mixing the sandalore and the vanicream?
Maybe ensure before each use you give the mixture a good shake/mix - like you would just before drinking orange juice ;)

DMSO just arrived. It's crystallized (due to the cold I guess) so I'll have to defrost it. Gonna add a drop of sandalore to it and see what happens. Wish me luck boys.

How much vehicle are you adding a drop to?

I’m wondering if a drop in a 60ml bottle of minoxidil is sufficient.
I’m not comfortable with the 1% concentration which many people here have arbitrarily decided to go for.

So I think the concentration of the study is 500 micromolar. I added two drops to ~480 mls of water and 2 mls of DMSO for solubility purposes. I think I may dump out some of the solution and go for 1 drop per 500 mls.

I highly doubt that Sandalore actually dissolved in 98% water

Does anyone know the ratio which is is recommended to be dissolved to for perfumes? We should find out. I would not be too comfortable exceeding that ratio.

Anyone one have any results too post? I am getting that vanicream very soon, my other mix hasn't been doing much at all.
