Homemade aftershaves

I don't know if this is the place to post this but I was thinking of making some really nice homemade aftershaves in custom fragrances. #1 would anybody be interested in any and #2 would it actually be legal without a license or permit.

 

The fine folks at The Shave Den might know!
(Try not to step on their toes...)

 

Interesting concept, I would like to know more about what your going to be making.

 

Aftershaves... a combo of water, witch hazel, vitamin E, aloe Vera, glycerin, and trying to get my hands on some NAPCA, and of course special organic fragrances. Might make a alcohol one and a alcohol free version.

 

I have a chemist friend that's helping me

 

How differs perfumers alcohol from regular high percentage vodka? Let's assume they contain the same amount of %.

 

Hay great idea I have now...a drinkable aftershave

 

I found this: http://mistralni.co.uk/products/perfumers-alcohol

Is it the right stuff? It's around half the price of high proof alcohol, but I can't see how high this perfumers is.

 

The price is in British pounds

 

17.00 British pounds is $24.49 US dollars

 

That seems about right. Which is very cheap to me, so I got doubts to whether it was the right stuff. 1 litre of pure alcohol at the store here, I think it's around 98%, is around 60 USD.

 

Seems like Formulators Alcohol is better suited for the job.

I take it WH is a form of water, hence perfumers wont work since they note it does not mix with water?

 

The internet is rife with recipes and methods for homemade aftershave. @HolyRollah made his own Bay Rum aftershave. Look under Inside The Den, then Soapmaking and Lotions.

I want to make some aftershave at some point. Sounds awesome!

 

My goal is to go totally natural and even organic

 

My skin will be the perfect guinea pig for it is tissue paper sensitive

 

The key to my aftershave is that it will include napca which no aftershave in the market has in it

 

The other key to a great aftershave is making the scent last for many hours

 

When I make my first batch and it meets my approval I will send the moderators a free sample
