I use this lady’s recipe for massage oil, always works for

1. Avery square labels or just print on paper & cut the squares. I did. With this. I love the satisfaction of cutting paper into fancy dancy squares. You too, weirdo? Here’s some free label printables..

2. 4 oz amber bottles with mist sprayer or pump. I buy mine with the lid and buy the sprayer and pumps separately, because I love the look of the lids too.

3. 4 oz. Coconut oil … It’s d’bomb dot com. No seriously. Divine.

4. 50 drops Ylang ylang essential oil. Imagine what heaven smells like. It smells like that.

What’s the proper ratio to base oil? I’m doing 4oz of coconut oil and want to add two essential oils to it. I saw some shyt about dilution percentages (2% , 5% etc)but there were different formulas with different ratios and whatnot.

Just Google essential oil dilution calculator. Or just figure out the numbers yourself. Most call for 2% -5% depending on how often you use it and where.

I have a 10.7 fl oz container of coconut oil that I mixed with rosemary oil. This is coconut oil is the type that melts at room temp, i dont like the processed coconut oil. 5% was roughly 110 or so drops of rosemary and I applied it according. I use it for my face every morning after I clean my face but i dont use much.
