Three Ways to Enjoy Essential Oils 1. Internally – in a liquid or a vegetable capsule 2. Rub topically on location, with or without a carrier oil 3. Breathe through the nose and through diffusing into the air

Neat vs. Diluted Nearly every Young Living oil can be used neat because it is 100% pure. This means you can apply oil to your skin straight out of the bottle. Diluted means that the essential oil is mixed with a carrier oil – a fatty vegetable oil such as Almond Oil, coconut oil, olive oil, or V-6.

Why Dilute? With therapeutic essential oils less is more. Cheaper Works like a time release capsule Greater surface area is affected

Diluting Cools Some essential oils are “hot.” To cool an essential oil add a fatty vegetable oil. Never water, because oil and water don’t mix.

How Do You Dilute?
