Massage/Skin Applications (M): Dilute your favourite Oil Garden essential
oils according to the above table with 10mL of carrier oil. Massage into the
skin to allow essential oils to be absorbed.
Bath (B): Add essential oils to a tablespoon of Vegetable Glycerine, then
add blend to bath water. This will ensure the essential oils disperse in the
water. If you do not have a bath then a foot bath is a simple alternative.

with a towel and inhale the vapours for five minutes. Close your eyes.

with water and add a total of 6 drops of your favourite essential oils.
Compress (C): Add essential oil to one tablespoon of Vegetable Glycerine,
add mixture to one litre of water (refer to above table for dilutions). Place a
soft cloth over the surface, lightly squeeze out excess moisture, and place onto
the skin. It is advisable to use the appropriate water temperature for your
specific concern.

Spritzers (S): Dilute the essential oils (refer to above table for
