The Giveaway
I have become a huge fan of Medicine Flower extracts! I love using them in all manners of natural beauty care products! When I wrote to them and asked for a few samples to give-away…they gladly sent me 3 samples of the strawberry extract for you to try! Please note: I am not an affiliate of Medicine Flower — a.k.a. I have not been paid to say these things — nor do I make any financial gain from these comments…I simply think they have a very cool product that you would love too!
Here’s what Medicine Flower has to say about their extracts…
Medicine Flower organic food-grade flavors are used for culinary, scent and cosmetic applications. Our flavors are cold-processed using extraction without the use of any colorants, fillers, diluting agents or preservatives.
Water and oil soluble, all our flavors are highly concentrated, contain no sugar or calories and are wheat- and gluten-free.
A few drops are needed to flavor anything from shaved ice, tea, coffee drinks to ice cream, desserts and smoothies.
Try a drop or two in your drinking water with ice for a refreshing gourmet treat!
Medicine Flower Flavor Extracts are also suitable for scenting massage oils, balms, bath oils, soaps and candles.
Concentrated Flavor: Consistent comparisons with other products on the market have revealed our flavor potency being over 30-70 times higher (1-5 drops of our flavors equal up to a teaspoon of other flavors).
Technical Information: Organic or wild-crafted in accordance with European standards, our flavors are obtained through a proprietary technology conducted at temperatures below 118 degrees F. This process comprises a multi-stage extraction encompassing initial desiccation, lyophilization, CO2 and HFC extraction.

I can’t find ‘Rosehip Oil’ at either of the two places you list there. Or pure strawberry extract. Anywhere else?
what a great idea and how cool is this?! I definately am going to try this.
First visit to your site, love it!
Hello! I’m so excited to try this recipe. I’ve been looking for a strawberry flavored lip balm recipe. I wanted to know if you have any tips when adding colorants. I have tried and tried to use beet root powder but it never seems to dissolve. And no matter how much I put, it always sinks to the bottom of the container and never offers any color. Are mica, powdered rose pedals or alkanet root better choices? I desire a natural lip balm I can make myself offering the slightest pinkish/reddish lip stain. Thank you in advance!
p.s. your blog is fantastic.
