Over time found an optimal variant of a vozzhiganiye: took a usual thick glass tumbler, down put the lit candle for the aromalamp, from above on a glass put a grid for a coal vozzhiganiye (similar to a tea-strainer, only big). That pitch did not dig a candle, put a small piece of a food foil. Well and on a foil already a pitch piece. The effect was pleasant to me from such way more, and there is no dymovukha in the room.

I bought incense EM especially for hair since I at other forum saw positive responses. I add to shampoo and a mask. The effect is, but, I think, not only from an incense since I use many different assets and EM for hair. But it seems to me, at the expense of smolyanistost, the incense has to increase elasticity of a hair (similar to a pine, a sandal-wood tree, a cedar). The fresh smell, a little coniferous, very pleasant, is well combined with a lavender, rosemary, a cedar.
