Best Transdermal Carrier

[DavidG]

Thinking of brewing up a transdermal mix, but was wondering what carrier has the best absorption rates? The MW of the compound is about 344. How would you compare something like PP's topical versus Phlojel or any others you have used?

PP is good, but mw shouild be kept under 300

The best carrier I have ever used is the one that Antaeus Labs uses for Trenazone. Very fast and thorough absorption. I'm not sure if it is still there, but there used to be information in the Antaeus blog about his combination of ingredients to accomplish this high level of absorption.

I wish AL would sell just the carrier to make our own. TZ dried super quick and I really enjoyed it also.

Out of all of the carriers I have used, the Avant carrier is the best results-wise.

 

[dsade]

Is it still being sold?

I can check for you.

I can check for you.

Gross.

Gross.

thankfully, being married I don't care what I smell like

 

[burlyman]

DMSO is a great carrier, but the skin irritation can become problematic.

let me know too

any idea if that avant carrier is still being sold? i was too nice and gave my brother the PP transdermal carrier i bought a while back but now i can't find any. Nutra is out of stock of Penetrate and Primordial performance doesn't seem to sell it anymore. if i can't find a premade carrier then i guess ill just have to go with phlojel and emu oil.

Yes, the Avant carrier is still being sold. It's called "Topical Matrix", but you will have to google for it if you are SMART.

How much formestane can 4oz of this topical matrix hold? And what is the process to get it to mix? I am only familiar with pp's topical solution.

Formestane is a bitch to mix.

I would recommend you get a stick blender and funnel JUST for this. Empty the 4 ounce carrier into a 32 ounce cup, and add no more than 6 grams. Use the stick blender to blend thoroughly, then funnel it back into the bottle.

 

[dsade]

I know that I had to heat pp's topical to mix, I assume there is no heating with this?

If you heat it, there will be some evaporative loss not to mention fire danger.

 

[dsade]

Kinda figured due to the alcohol...but thanks for the info, I was afraid I was out of luck due to pp discontinuing their carrier...

I MUCH prefer this carrier overall. I used it for years.

 

[dsade]

I assume it's similar to mrsupps formastanazol or formeron's carrier, no?

Never used it.

 

[laserbluess]

just got a couple of those topical matrix bottles. hopefully i can get 5grams of 11 oxo into each of them.

 

[Corbin980]

Dmso does a great job.

Just started DMSO today. I have had it forever but it just dawned on me to mix.

Yea that is about the best I've used as well. You can use ingreds with MW up to 350 MAYBE 400 with that one.

 

[laserbluess]

im having trouble keeping 11 oxo dissolved in it. i put 5 grams in each 4 oz bottle but im guessing that is too much oh well, not much i can do now. i have been heating up using a water bath method to make more of it dissolve before applying it. oh well, live and learn.

edit: this made it sound like i have actually started applying it lol. i have been heating it up daily til i start my cycle (10 days !!) to try and make more of it dissolve. it seems to be working, but each day there still some settled on the bottom. im hoping it all is dissolved in the solution by the time i start my cycle.

 

[BB12]

I've heard some using Emu Oil...

any good?

 

[Corbin980]

I used to use it but got the big D when I used it last.

 

[BB12]

Big D?!?!

Dumps?
Douche?
Donuts!?

Does anyone know if or what the Tropical Matrix smells like?

 

[laserbluess]

yeah, smells a little citrus-like. not a terrible smell, but also not what i would want to smell like all day at work.

 

[BB12]

Cool, thanks

Flojel Ultra.

not to mention its EXPENSIVE now. Can't find formestane powder in bulk anywhere.

 

[EasyEJL]

what about ATD in topical?
