[Dailydrool] Blue cream IBD etc

[Vikki Kiehl]

Thank you all for your emails!   <smile>  I'm taking Sara Sue to the
vet this morn.  Is a 3 hour trip.  I'll try to sit down this afternoon
& answer the questions everyone has sent me.

Blue Cream
I've been using this topically for about 6mos or so and it has worked
very well.  I learned to make creams as part of my extractions course
in my Master Herbalist studies.  (The main reason I've not had time to
keep up the drool)

the Gentian violet
answer:  maybe, if you blend it well.  It doesn't mix well with super
greasy creams, it's a "water"

Angelika wrote: then using it on Elvis' forever gooey flews will do
any good. He also has a permanent sore on his belly due to him having
to drag around.
answer:  he'll lick it off (thus the "natural base") his flews, but
shouldn't hurt him.  It will stain your carpet & furniture if he drags
across it

Angelika wrote:  Anyone have a better suggestion of what to use for
the creme 'base' ?
answer:  are you asking me?

Angelika wrote:  Not sure if I'll use the mixer though LOL...maybe the blender??
answer:  for me, mixer works better.  blender motor gets hot and your
emulsion can separate... that's my experience.  I've used both.
Mixer is easier to clean.
