Essential, Carrier Oils

I love Essential and Carrier Oils
In this Blog I will give you some Ideas what I use them for apart from Burning
These Tips really work as I said I use them all the time and use them for the Tips I am about to give you to


                            Sweet Almond Carrier Oil

Even though sweet Almond Oil is an Oil it is working great as an eye Make up remover, does not make the eyes water
Get a Cotton wool Pad, dampen it ad a Bit of Sweet Almond Oil and sweep gently over the eyes 


Sweet Almond Carrier/Base Oil is very good for a Body Moisture as well as a Face Moisturiser I use it every Night after cleansing with Jojoba-Lemon essential Oil, I see a big difference already


Sweet Almond Carrier Oil is good for several things
I use it neat at Night as Cleanser it moisturises the Skin and is good for lines and wrinkles, you can even use it as a Moisturiser
I also use it for Gissi (my Dog) as he has Skin Irritation and this soothes the itching and cures his Skin, I put a few of Lavender Essential Oil drops in it so he is nice and relaxed lol
Also I use the same Mixture on my Skin after a Shower 

                                      


                                               Jo Joba Oil

Use Jojoba Oil with 2 drops of essential Lemon Oil as a Toner/ Cleanser it works a treat
Also Jojoba Oil is great as a Hand Oil and for your Skin
I put some on after a shower while the Skin is still wet




                                         For the Pets

Treating Dogs:
600 ml warm water
2 drops pure lavender essential oil
2 drops pure cedarwood essential oil
Swish the essential oils around well to disperse them in the water. Take the dog brush and soak the bristles in this solution. Then brush the dog through.
Alternatively, soak a piece of disposable cloth in the solution and rub it over the coat. Make sure you avoid the face and delicate sections of the underneath area. Continue until the whole coat is covered.


Treating Cats:
Soak an ordinary fabric collar in the following solution: Allow to dry before using. Repeat every 4-6 weeks.
150 ml water
5 ml alcohol (vodka is good)
3 drops pure lavender essential oil
3 drops pure citronella essential oil



Or use this light spray in a plant mister on bedding. Repeat every week for six weeks.
150 ml water
5 ml alcohol (eg. vodka)
1 drop pure lavender essential oil
1 drop pure citronella essential oil

This last recipe can also be used on your own bedding it helps keep the mosquito's abay.
