Can anyone please recommend a supplier for the above chemicals who are willing to ship to Australia (and reasonable shipping charges too!).
I would only be interested in getting small DIY amounts, i.e. under 100g or 4oz |

nyonyakay,
What are these two chemicals for? Are they new actives? What do you use them in? I am just curious  |

nyonyakay,
I get my dimethyl isorbide from cellbone technologies http://www.cellbone.com/ . Very high quality products, but not cheap.
I don't know if they ship to australia... |

It appears we should use it as a solvent for water-soluble actives. It also has the effect of being a "penetration-enhancer" to get actives into the epidermis. The website says to add this at a 5% concentration - I believe this applies to the weight of the finished potion.
Katee, please chime in if you have anything to add. I presume you have worked with this before. |

| Can dimethyl isorbide also help with the penetration of carrier oils like jojoba, rosehip? |

Hello Katee,

I just ordered Dimethy Isorbide and Matrixyl 3000 from Cellbone. Matrixyl 3000 is on sale, 25ml for $24. I am hoping to use Dimethy Isobride in my future mixture with pearl powder...still exploring  |
