Allison, thanks for this, it's great. I get tired of the safe/not safe, let's over exagerate ingredients issue. Makes our jobs harder. And how fortuitous your post was as I just posted on my blog about the "cosmetics not tested/stop cosmetic anmal testing" issue. http://tinyurl.com/7wbhyke

Normally, bubbles burst after a short time because its outside layer evaporates quickly. That is, until manufacturers came up with an innovative solution through the addition of glycerin. Glycerin, or glycerol, is a thick and colorless alcohol which is a byproduct of soap making process. Its ability to dissolve with water makes it ideal for bubble making.

Throw of a perfume is dependent upon a lot of factors. These include the initial strength of the fragrance compounds you are blending as well as the ratio of fragrance concentrate to base. You may need to experiment with your ratios if you aren't getting good "throw" or maybe try a new blend of fragrance compounds.
