Any progress on homebrewing creams/gels?
If yes, similar with different compounds (and still no esters)?
just testing left to do to see how much to dose.
certain compounds like primo are very hard to decrease the particles. The flakey crystals, you can see it on the flow chart you either have to dissolve them (not an option) or do your best to grind it down. if you turn the lights out and shine a flashlight on your skin you can see whether it absorbed or not
We should probably start another thread for this. I'm looking to start homebrewing topicals. Have most of the ingredients, now looking for recipes/protocols.
What's the difference? Thanks for the previous posts, very helpfulOkay there's a big difference between making cream and other topicals. other topicals always add ethanol or dmso to completely dissolve the compound. with cream you don't want to add anything maybe a little bit of levigating agent if it's crystalline

Is that true of DMSO as a solvent? I thought it enhanced absorption?If you have to dissolve it, the solvent is taking up way too much of the composition resulting in lower concentration. And the fact that it won't absorb as well to begin with.
It is both. Many solvents go right through the skin.Is that true of DMSO as a solvent? I thought it enhanced absorption?
What about the case of a cream made with an agent dissolved/levigated with DMSO. The cream would obviously constitute a far greater proportion of the mix than the DMSO. Seems like the best of both worlds.That's not to say you can't get higher levels with transdermal. You would simply spread it over a larger surface area. This would mimick the peak and drop of Test prop
Never heard of levigating with dmso, but you can add a little bit if you wishWhat about the case of a cream made with an agent dissolved/levigated with DMSO. The cream would obviously constitute a far greater proportion of the mix than the DMSO. Seems like the best of both worlds.
