Yup. No fix in them and they are at 1 mg/ml so you would also have to dilute them down with your own etoh to get reasonable dosages.
Once you get the doses you want in a separate container, 20 mcg a drop for example, then fix them. I think most are fixed with 10% dpg. The more fix, the longer app time on your skin but at a slower burn. The less fix equal faster burn but less app time.
Think of a low fix mix as like tinder. It will burn fast and bright but only for a small timeframe. Think of heavy fixes (like the oil products) as being hardwood logs. They take awhile to burn but not very intense. Trick is to find a balance of mone concentration in conjunction with the amount of fix you intend to use. This is the reason why many oil-based products contain more mones to compensate for lack of burn intensity but app time is increased dramatically. With etoh products they can contain less mones bc they will burn off faster but not last as long. Hope all that made sense.
You don't necessarily have to fix the concentrates, but they would burn off really fast as they are only alcohol and mones. The fix extends app time.
