How to use essential oils?
Essential oils, particularly some types, are very strong and can irritate the skin. The degree to which the skin reacts to pure essential oils depends on its sensitivity. Diluting the listed products with a carrier or base oil is important before using them on your skin.
The different plant oils that can be used to dilute the essential oils are:
● Coconut oil
● Argan oil
● Almond oil
● Olive oil
● Jojoba oil
● Grapeseed oil
You can also use aloe vera gel and high-quality alcohol as alternatives to a base oil.
Dilution ratio
How should the oils be diluted? The dilution percent depends on the person using the oils and the specific type that is used. A universal dilution percentage that can be used is 3%. This is equivalent to 10 drops of essential oil in 15 ml (1 tablespoon) of carrier oil.
Where to get quality essential oils
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.
