Essential Oils Recipes : Chamomile-Rose Replenishing Eye Oil
The skin around the eyes is fragile and benefits from light and moisturizing treatments. Chamomile (Matricaria recutita) and Rose (Rosa spp.) essential oils are anti-inflammatory and restorative for this delicate area.
You will need:
- 5 drops Chamomile essential oil
- 5 drops Rose essential oil
- 1 ounce Jojoba oil
Combine essential oils with Jojoba oil and store in a one-ounce glass bottle with a dropper top.
To use the oil, cleanse your face and leave your skin slightly damp. Apply 2 drops of the oil to your ring finger (you’ll apply less pressure with this finger than with your index finger), and with a gentle tapping motion, smooth the oil beneath your eye and onto the area just beneath the brow bone.
Do not apply oil directly to your eyelids, as it can migrate into your eyes and cause irritation.

Essential Oils Recipes : Citrus Bliss Perfume Blend
You will need :
- 6 drops grapefruit
- 5 drops lavender
- 3 drops tangerine
- 1 drop ylang ylang
Combine 15 drops of your essential oil blend with one ounce of vodka in a glass bottle and shake well. Ideally, allow your perfume to sit in a cool, dark place for a couple of weeks before using it, which allows time for the essential oils to meld together and results in a rich, complex blend. For ease of application, store your perfume in a small glass bottle with an atomizer top.
If you prefer an oil-based perfume, you can add 15 to 30 drops of your essential oil blend to one ounce of jojoba oil in a glass bottle and shake well. An oil-based perfume can be used immediately. Apply a drop or two to pulse points at your wrists and neck.
