About skin & face oil
Why only 6 drops in 30 ml?
Face skin is more delicate, so face oils stay around 1%. That's 6 drops in 30 ml.
Can I add it to my moisturizer instead?
Yes. Stir 3 drops into a 50 ml jar of unscented moisturizer, not into each scoop.
Can I use it in the morning?
Yes, under sunscreen. This routine has no citrus oils, so there is no sun warning.
About hair & scalp oil
How often should I use it?
Twice a week, before you wash your hair.
Can I add rose geranium to my shampoo?
Yes. Stir 10 drops into a 250 ml bottle of unscented shampoo and shake before each wash.
Will it make my hair greasy?
Only until you wash it. Argan rinses out with shampoo.
About perfume & roll-on blends
Why only 6 drops in 10 ml?
Oils worn on skin stay around 3%, so the roller is a soft scent that stays close to you. Six drops in 10 ml is that amount.
Can I add citrus oils?
Not to a roller you wear in daylight. Bergamot and other citrus peel oils can react with sunlight on skin. Petitgrain gives a citrus note without that warning.
How should I keep the roller?
Keep it closed and out of the sun.
About soap & candle making
Can I use it in candles?
You can, but candles need a lot of oil: about 6% of the wax. A small 100 g candle takes about 6 ml. Soap needs far less.
Why add the oils after melting?
Very hot soap base drives off the lighter notes. A minute of cooling keeps more of the scent in the bar.
Will the scent last in the bar?
Wrap the bars once they set and keep them away from sun and heat. Patchouli and Vetiver help the scent hold.
Everything else
Which geranium is this?
Rose geranium, Pelargonium roseum, from South Africa. It smells rosier and sweeter than Egyptian geranium, which is greener and sharper.
Can I put it straight on my skin?
No. Mix it into a carrier oil first and patch test on your inner arm 24 hours before.
Which size should I pick?
Most people pick Complete. Routines over $50 ship free, and over $75 they also get a free Eucalyptus. The Starter is the three items one recipe needs; the Collection adds two more.
Do I save when I buy more than one?
Yes, on everything in your cart: 2 items 10% off, 3 to 5 items 15% off, 6 or more 20% off. It's applied automatically.
When does my order ship free?
When the products in your cart come to $50 or more after discounts. A free Eucalyptus is added at $75 and a free Lemon at $95. Shipping Protection doesn't count toward these.
What if I don't like it?
