Pengu Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I can't for the life of me figure out what ratio I should be using when it comes to FO and EO in a carrier oil.Like if I want to make a foot scrub with 3-4 different some essential oils, in a carrier oil obviously, how many drops of each EO and drops of the carrier oil do I need to use? And can I apply this rule to all my other ingredients?I'm scared of putting too much EO in and hurting someone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauramw71 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 You need to research the EO you want to use and find out what the safe % is. Each one will have a different amount. And personally, I don't trust drops, I use measurements... For EO or FO I measure in ML in my droppers. Some EO's are skin safe at 100% like lavendar or tea tree oil, but than others aren't skin safe at all. You need to research this thoroughly before making anything...HTH!Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
