● Olive oil

● Jojoba oil

● Grapeseed oil

You can also use aloe vera gel and high-quality alcohol as alternatives to a base oil.

Oil quality is important for great results. Good quality essential oils can be purchased from Pure Path Essential Oils. A good brand is the doTerra brand. You can buy doTerra online and begin treatment.
