Fat-Based Preparations: Easily blends with butter, cream, or vegetable oils for infused dressings, sauces, or marinades.

Suitable Emulsions: Can be added to creams or lotions for massage and relaxation purposes.
Avoid Water-Based Mixtures: Since it is insoluble in water, always pre-mix with Solubol when incorporating into water-based formulations.
4. Diffusion & Inhalation
