1   Take the carrier and multiply by the percentage you would want to use. Example: 5 lb of carrier oil - needing to add 2% of an essential oil, convert 5 lbs to 80 oz ( 5lbs x 16oz = 80 oz) and then multiply 80 oz by .02 (2%) which gives you 1.6 oz. Alternatively: you can multiply oz x 30 to get ml (or cc). So 1.6 oz x 30 = 48 ml or 48 cc.

2   Temperature and Storage

  • Keep caps tightly closed when not in use.

  • Do not store in direct sunlight.

  • Avoid exposure to high heat and light for prolonged periods.

  • Store at normal room temperature.

  • Take a periodic (now is good) inventory of your oils and rotate and use what is getting older.

  • Use your oils! It isn’t the one who dies with the most oils that wins, it’s the one who uses the most oils that lives.
