Aroma oils are very skin permeable and when you inhale them they go straight to your nervous system and so you feel the effect almost instantly.
Since essential oils are quite powerful, most of them should be diluted in a diffuser or in a formula for external use.
You can use aromatherapy oils for perfumery by diluting them in base oils or alcohol. Lavender, patchouli, citrus, neroli and jasmine oils are very popular as perfume.
Lavender oil is great for helping you sleep and peppermint oil will help your muscles relax when you use it diluted in base oil for a massage.
Try French lavender oil for cuts and bruises. Add a few drops of ylang ylang or neroli oil to your moisturizer. These two are especially suitable for older skin.
Looking for a great massage oil? Choose from among many essential oils. Just dilute them in almond or grapeseed oil. Make your own sport massage blend or one for erotic or relaxation massage.
Just put you favourite essential oil or blend in the diffuser. Lavender, eucalyptus and tea tree are a famous winter blend. Cinnamon, anise, citrus and ginger are a favourite Christmas blend. Feel free to make your own favourite blend. It’s fun!
