THERAPEUTIC USE

How to use Basil (Sweet) Essential Oil

    • Diffuse: Add a few drops to an aromatherapy diffuser and let the grounding aroma fill your environment.
    • Topically/On the Go: Add 4-6 drops of Basil Oil to a 15ml roller bottle and top with Fractionated Coconut Oil to create an on-the-go roller blend. Apply to your wrists, temples, behind your ears & bottoms of your feet.

See topical dilution guide below for safe topical application

    • Massage: Dilute a few drops of Basil Oil into a carrier oil, massage oil, or moisturiser to soothe sore, tight and fatigued muscles.
    • Skin Serum: Add a few drops to a carrier oil of choice; we recommend Jojoba Oil or Rosehip Oil as these carrier oils are well known for their skin benefits. Once diluted, apply nightly to desired areas, avoiding your eyes and sensitive areas. Alternatively, you can add a couple of drops to your existing skincare products (cream / lotion) to boost their healing and rejuvenating properties.
    • Bath: Add a few drops of Basil Essential Oil to a warm bath to promote emotional and immune support.
    • Fast Remedy: Add 1-2 drops of Basil Oil to a tissue and inhale at a distance while ensuring that the oil does not come into direct contact with your skin. Alternatively, you can smell the oil directly from the bottle!

Topical Dilution Guidelines
Please note that the following guidelines are recommended for healthy adults:

  • General Use: 2 – 4% dilution (4 – 8 drops per 10ml)
  • Facial Application: 1 – 2% dilution (2 – 4 drops per 10ml)

SAFETY

Organic Basil (Sweet) Essential Oil Safety

  • Essential oils are extremely potent and can cause serious harm if used incorrectly.
  • In line with the Therapeutic Goods Act, we do not recommend ingesting essential oils without the guidance of a registered Aromatherapist or Naturopath.
  • Essential oils should be kept out of reach of children and pets.
  • Avoid using essential oils during pregnancy and whilst breastfeeding.
  • Essential oils are very concentrated and are likely to cause irritation or reactions if applied directly to the skin. For this reason, we recommend diluting your essential oils before using topically (on the skin).
