Sandalore - Chemical Used In Perfumes To Mimic Sandalwood Triggers Growth?

[Cacogen]

Someone should compile a list of existing lotions, perfumes, etc that do in fact contain Sandalore. I bet some of them would contain at least as much of it as did the solution in the study. Will take some legwork, contacting the companies and such. Obviously will want the quantity also.

There are quite a few products, easily found, that say "Sandalwood" on the label, but don't contain any sandalwood oil, it's just that they don't generally say exactly what odorant is used -- just "fragrance (parfum)" -- and there are multiple synthetic sandalwood-like fragrances.

Heck, one could probably enter into an affiliate arrangement, set up a WordPress site, SEO hard, and make the effort worth it.

Hi guys, I have been following this thread for a couple of weeks now and I was unsure about buying my own Sandalore and mixing it. I was also put off by the person who said there scalp started flaking due to the alcohol it was mixed with. Im not sure if a product will be released by the company who made this study, or if further studies will be done first to quantify any effect on hair growth.

I have found a mixture of Argan oil and Sandalore on instagram and received mine today. I dont know if it works yet but it was mixed with the right concentration in the study (500um), and I have used it today. My hair feels pretty good to say I dont normally use conditioner, it feels silky and my scalp feels more moist than usual (i normally see flakes on my t-shirt if i wear a black t-shirt).

Im just thinking I have tried Minoxidil for 3 years now and my hair is still thinning, propecia didnt agree with me, why can I not try something new, im sure its not a risk.

The product name is Rejuvenile and it looks pretty good, not sure if its a start-up or not but definitely impressed so far. It cost me £16 for a 100ml bottle but i looked into buying it myself and mixing it and the sandalore is 40 quid or so and the argan oil is not cheap if you get the good stuff!!

Will keep you posted on how this progressed over the next month or so will be taking pictures of my scalp as it is now to compare

Link?

I just added a few drops to minoxidil. Let's see.
The argan oil solution might also be good, however putting oil on the scalp is not the best thing for everyone

 

[inmyhead]

I bought from https://www.rejuvenile.co.uk/products/organic-argan-oil-sandalore

The instructions for use are to use in-place of a conditioner. So apply after shampoo-ing, leave for a couple of minutes and then rinse off. I think our scalps have natural oil on them, its only in modern society that our shampoo's and stuff leave our scalps dry, I think thats why many people get flaky/itchy scalps, myself included, I wonder if this is linked to hair loss/follicle death?

Anyway I dont see an issue with putting argan oil on for a few minutes before rinsing off I will let you know how this progresses over the next month or so

I'm quite sure this guy is promoting scam. Domain was registered two weeks ago. Sells only one product.

of course he does. but that's not really a scam.. that's just surfing on the wave... he is just using the hype arround sandalore.
I could and lot of people could do this. make a lotion with cheap ingredients you don't even have to count sandalore because at such concentration it just does not cost a thing. that means he has hundreds % benefit.
he is obviously trying to make cash promoting this product, that means it should be an automatic ban.But people need to understand they can easily do a lotion themselves for a cheap price, it's quite easy to find and prepare, you don't need to be a chemist , no need to wear gloves or safety glasses...

 

[Francesco17]

But they used much higher sandalore concentration than you would find in commercial products...

 

[inmyhead]

I actually did buy the product from this website, I think £16 is pretty reasonable for somebody to mix it and sell it. I found some similar ones of just argan oil scalp treatments for £20-£25. If you are accusing me of promoting this product, then I accuse everyone else on this thread of promoting Sandalore purchasing from Pell Mall, which i didnt want to do, I wanted a pre-mixed version and I found one.

I am new to this forum but it certainly doesnt seem like a friendly place so far!

Please can you explain why this is a scam? Its an item being sold as advertised and im sure it smells of sandalwood faintly? Sure its probably a start-up company but that doesnt make it a scam.

But yeah the above poster is right this is just a mixture of two ingredients, its not rocket science and theres no evidence to suggest that it works. I dont think theres a Sandalore wave either. Theres no clinical trials done and theres nobody who will ever do one, theres nobody to fund it, you cant patent it or protect it and therefore a drug company is not interested.

I think everybody on this thread who has tried Sandalore like me, needs to take a picture of their scalp before and after using it for a period of time and post it. Almost like a crowd sourced clinical trial?

Typical quote of scammers.

You come as new member, and promote a new store which is impossible to find in google and claiming that you found it somehow? Sure man.

Sólo me gustaría decir que el sándalo me sienta fatal produciendome dolores de cabeza molestias en los ojos incluyendo ojeras inmediatamente al aplicarlo y pequeñas manchas faciales además de malestar en el pecho.
Definitivamente no lo tolero.
Recuerdo que lo mezclaba con aceite de oliva.

 

[helloo1]

so if i get a blinder and put 300 ml shampoo on it and few drops of sandalore . is this okay ?

 

[Trichosan]

hey, i have noticed your conversion is incorrect. i dont think this is the right concentration, can you explain your maths?

are you worried that if you mix with alcohol and apply to the scalp, the alcohol could evaporate and leave the sandalore directly on the scalp, which would be a concentration of 100% sandalore.

Formula in second paragraph down: https://www.tocris.com/resources/molarity-calculator

Molecular weight of Sandalore: 210.361 g/mol

 

[orphanfunkhouser]

anybody have a legit formula for this yet? I was thinking maybe just using some castor oil and alcohol with a small amount of sandalore and experimenting

After using for some time now, what little hair I do have on top is getting more dry. Scalp isn't though. So I think I might add some castor oil for it's reputed postive effects and for preventing hair dryness. I'm going to stick with just the Sandalore and ETOH for a few more weeks first anyway.

Cool, What are your measurements for the formula?

 

[Trichosan]

1ml San/100 ml ETOH

I would wait for a little (I have the article, see attached). Not all odorants are safe for application.

Wow that's disturbing. I'm assuming the Sandalore people are using right now isn't one of the odorants that irreversibly damage cells??

there is only one sandalore > CAS Number 65113-99-7.
this paper just analyses different sandalwood odorants, which have nothing to do with this thread. That's just misleading people.

Hi Trichosan,

I have double-checked your maths using your website. You have used the wrong concentration.

You have a concentration of 500mM (millimolar), or 500,000μM (micromolar), you are 1000x higher than the concentration in the study!! The correct blending ratio is 1.05g per 1 litre for 500μM concentration, or 0.105g per 100ml.

I would recommend re-blending this using the correct concentration to avoid any adverse side effects.

I was going to start with 0.5 ml of sandalore with 100 ml of ethanol. Is that too strong?

 

[TK421]

Id say so yes, you want to start with the concentration used in the study. So try 0.105ml for 100ml of ethanol, and then work your way up. If the ethanol leaves your scalp dry I would recommend an oil based mixture with the Sandalore

Well I already mixed my solution of 0.5 ml sandalore with 100 ml of ethanol. Looks like the bottle can hold another 100 ml so maybe I should add more ethanol. Then the new concentration will be around 2.5 x more than the amount used in the study, as opposed to 5 x more, which sounds a little more reasonable.

Hey everyone, some news. I got my DMSO today and mixed about 1ml into the 16oz bottle or 475ml, applied to my scalp. Basically it was hot in temperature which was disconcerting and when I applied it to my scalp I quickly felt a burning sensation, panicked, and then quickly washed it off my scalp. So that's not going to work. Then I thought about duluting it with alcohol and read this: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1539982/?page=1
Decided to just mix 1 drop of it in my bottle of minoxidil and do so with every bottle of minoxidil I go through. Hopefully the fact that minoxidil has water won't prevent some of it from mixing.

I'll look in to this, Thanks.
