Phaedra's Notes:

When making oils be aware that there are two types, essential oils (e.o.) and fragrance oils. These recipes call for essential oils which are the pure oils from herbs and flowers, their scents are very strong which is why only a few drops are called for. These are to be blended together into a carrier or base oil. Fragrance oils are often synthetic and while they cost less may not blend together as well or may have a strange after scent.

Carrier oils are mild, pure oils that are used to dilute and increase the amount of oil made from the concentrated essential oils. They are used to make oil blends cost less and last longer. The most common and preferred carrier oils are Jojoba, Almond, Grapeseed, and Apricot Kernel oil. Jojoba oil is actually a liquid form of wax, and resists aging and oxidization better than any other carrier, but it is also one of the most expensive carriers. Both Almond and Apricot Kernel are high quality and relatively inexpensive. You can also use mineral oil or olive oil, but only use the latter if you don't mind it lending an extra note to your scent.

To blend the oils together, use a clean dark glass bottle and add the essential oils to it then swirl the bottle to blend the oils. You can measure the oil by using glass droppers which can be bought at a pharmacy or drug store. Be sure to use a clean dropper for each oil then clean the droppers thoroughly after each use. Then add the appropriate amount of carrier oil. Cap the bottle and gently roll it between your palms. Uncap the bottle and add any required herbs or crystals. When done, be sure to label the bottle with the name of the blend and the date it was made.

When measuring ounces or milliliters, be sure to use an accurate tool. Normal household spoons are never accurate; you should either ask your pharmacy for a dosing spoon that will have mls and teaspoons clearly marked or invest in an inexpensive teaspoon/tablespoon measuring set.

If you are to add any herbs or crystals be sure to cleanse and charge them before adding them to the oil. Stones can be cleansed with salt water then letting them soak in sun- or moonlight. Herbs can be charged with your personal power or they can also be left to bathe in sun- or moonlight. When recipes call for precious or semiprecious stones you can always use the less expensive chip bead necklaces or bracelets. Unstring the chips and they should be right size to add a small chip or two to your bottle.
