How to use?
Massages: Basil essential oil is highly concentrated and should not be directly applied on skin or hair. It can be diluted with carrier oil or base oil by adding 5-6 drops of the essential oil and blending well.
Baths: Add 4-5 drops of Basil essential oil to your bath tub or 3-4 drops to your bucket and swish the water gently to mix the oil well. If you have a dry skin, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil along with the essential oil.
Diffuser: Use 4-5 drops of Basil essential oil in a diffuser bowl filled with three quarters of water. Essential oils should never be burnt directly as the chemical structure can get changed with incineration.
Methods:
- Mix few drops of Basil essential oil with coconut carrier oil and massage it into your hair to relieve from stress and migraines. You can use any other carrier oil as well.
- Take a drop of Basil essential oil straight and rub it on the insect bite.
- For cold and congestion, take a few drops on a tissue paper and inhale directly.
