An essential oil moisturizer combines pure oil for maximum moisturization
with the right therapeutic drops added for your needs. It can be used as often
as you like as they are additive-free, pure, non-irritating, inexpensive,
quick and easy to make.

The best time to apply a body moisturizer is after a bath or a shower when
the skin is soft and warm. Alternatively rub the oil in using the palm to
create maximum heat and friction. Mix just enough oil to last just a few days and
apply sparingly. The ideal mixture should contain 15 drops of essential oil
in 12 teaspoons of carrier oil.

Rich Moisturizers
Dry Skin: 8 drops Myrrh, 7 drops Rose in 12 tsp Peanut Oil Mature Skin: 7
drops Rose, 4 drops each of Lavender and Sandalwood in Apricot Kernel Oil.

Light Moisturizers
Oily Skin: 8 drops Lavender, 3 drops each of Lemon and Petitgrain in
Sunflower Oil. Sensitive Skin: 5 drops Rose, 9 drops Chamomile in 12 tsp Sweet
Almond Oil.
