Notes
After making the blend let gently shake it up and then let it rest overnight to let the scent mix well. Usage: Put on after shower on patted damp skin. Warm oil between your palms and massage in gently (this is better than quickly applying it) Ok for: Chest & neck 3-4 drops Arms 3-4 drops each Legs 6-8 drops each Hands & elbows (if very dry) 1-2 drops If after 15mins the skin feels oily you used a bit to much, if it disappears instantly and skin feels tight you might want to add more or apply a second time.
