Tips and use of Vetiver oil:
Dilution:
Use about 1%, which corresponds to approx. 20 drops per 100 ml product. You can use up to 3% for body oil.
The oil can be quite thick and a bit tricky to get out, so warm the bottle in your hands or put it in a plastic bag that is put in a glass of warm water before use. If necessary, also use a pipette.
In diffuser or oil lamp:
Vetiver essential oil has a calming and grounding effect in the room when used in aromatherapy/diffusers. It is an ideal oil to use at bedtime to help you relax before bed. Can also be recommended to mix it with other oils such as grapefruit, lavender and ylang-ylang.
Skin care / massage:
Create your own massage blend by combining vetiver with other essential oils of grapefruit, lavender and ylang-ylang for a de-stressing and soothing effect. It revitalizes mature and malnourished skin.
As with any new product, always perform a patch test before first use.
Hair care:
Feel free to massage a couple of drops into the scalp together with your shampoo or conditioner to increase blood circulation in the scalp. The hair also smells lovely.
General precautions when using essential oils:
Remember that all essential oils should be used with great care and respect. These drops are very potent and should be kept out of the reach of children. Pregnant women should avoid all essential oils and people with epilepsy, asthma and high blood pressure should investigate the individual oils in particular.
Never use essential oils internally. There are some exceptions for some of the oils as flavoring, but then only in microscopic quantities mixed in liquid or similar. Drinking just a few milliliters of essential oil can actually be fatal in the worst case scenario.
Always read up a bit before you start experimenting with essential oils and remember to check that they are labeled 100% pure essential oils.
