Hi, I dissolved 25 grams of CoQ10 powder into 14oz of coconut oil. I'm planning to apply to face and hair. Does anyone have an idea of how long to leave it on for absorption purposes? My go to is usually an hour, but I'm planning to absorb most of it (70-80%) and not all. Would 30 minutes work or an hour? Or overnight (really don't want to as it will stain my pillow orange and I will look like Mr Trump in morning). I believe the dose is 300mg of CoQ10 per teaspoon which is pretty high for topical use so should be able to saturate local tissue better.
Also, I think this could enhance the ability of "oil pulling" compared to regular oil pulling with just plain coconut oil for oral health.
I was also thinking about adding some preg to it as well......
