Simple Teenage Business – How To Make And Sell Perfumes To Your Friends
Making and selling perfumes is a great way to make extra cash and make friends at the same time. It’s very simple to do.
Firstly, you will need to get some essential oils. Find these on line or in a healthfood shop. They come in tiny little brown glass bottles. The glass is colored to stop the light harming the essential oils. Essential oils haved to be protected from heat and light.
Essential oils are extracted from plants. The scent we smell when we sniff a rose is the essential oil that that the rose produces naturally. All perfumes are made from essential oils. Different perfumes contain different blends of essential oils.
They may seem quite expensive at first. But you only need tiny amounts. Just a few drops of essential oil are all that is needed.
Look on this as your start up capital. May be you have to negotiate a loan from the bank of Mom and Dad. Or may be you do some extra chores to earn the money.
Next you will need some glass jars with lids. These are for mixing your perfume. Recycle old ones but wash them. You don’t want your perfume smelling of peanut butter. Well some people might I supose.
Don’t use the ones in the kitchen that are used for storing pasta and stuff. I know you intend to wash them afterwards but believe me they will still smell of the perfume. Essential oils are very powerful. For the same reason, don’t put your perfume jars in the dishwasher along with all the dishes. This is the quickest way to bring your perfume business to a halt at the beginning. So keep your perfume jars separate.
If you have younger brothers and sisters keep your perfumes and essential oils away from them. Undiluted essential oils can harm the skin. Wash your hands before and after making any perfume.
A perfume is made by blending essential oils and mixing them with oil or water. Perfumes often contain alcohol but if you start buying bottles of vodka questions will be asked. So make your perfumes alcohol free. That way you can sell them to your friends.
For a good perfume you need some floral scents and some woody scents and may be some fruity ones. Floral scents are very feminine and sexy but they don’t work on their own. They need the woody ones to set them off properly.
Even if you want to make a really girly, feminine perfume avoid too many floral notes. They can make you feel really nauseous and give you a headache. This is especially true of the powerful ones like ylang ylang and neroli. Just a drop or two of these is enough.
A young perfume that is perfect for teens has plenty of the lighter, floral scents and some fruity ones. That gives a fresh feel to the perfume.
Adding some lavender can help to blend all the different scents together. It bridges the top notes and the base notes in your composition.
A perfume without floral essential oils is great for the guys. Yes, they can wear perfume too. Just tell them it’s after shave. Alcohol free after shave is a good idea because it won’t sting.
So go create and start your business selling perfume to your fellow teens.
