Simplers Essential Oil Dilutions

Dilutions of Pure Essential Oils

With Essential Oils more is not necessarily better. Some people experience skin sensitivies to even mild essentials oils when applied diluted and or neat (undiluted) to the skin (children and the elderly are especially sensitive). Test yourself for sensitivity by applying your chosen essential oils in a dilution to a small skin area before using on a larger area.

These are a few of the more popular dilutions for pure essential oils.

Remember that with essential oils, one drop goes a long way. Pure essential oils are volatile oils that easily penetrate the skin and some may cause skin irritation or sensitivity if not properly diluted in a carrier oil or lotion, or if used in high concentrations. Always be sure to use only pure essential oils from a trusted source.
