I am making home lip balm. Can I use these essential oils?

I would say no. These (wonderful) oils are already in a carrier oil, and so are not just pure essential oils.

I would not. While there are no warnings against using on lips, the box does say use only on healthy skin, and lips often chap, so I think these may iritate lips. As well, some of the oils have warming effect, primarily to sooth muscles. For example, arnica, sea birch, and birch cellulite oil. The ingrediants listed are plant oils, so it is not a matter of chemicals, rather the intended purpose of these oil blends that would keep me from putting on my lips.

you can't use essential oil in this steamer...this is just a plain one...you will ruin it if you do...

I use all types of essential oils. Yes you can use citrus oils. It works well. I use it every day at home and I have one in my classroom too.

Hi....I have used these caspules for essential oils and have had no problem...however I think it would depend on what oils you use (how strong the ability would be to dissolve) and the duration of time....I only made mine for a few days ahead of time. Good Luck

Unfortunately I don't know. I have never used essential oils and don't know how difficult (if at all) they are to humidify. It's a great humidifier on it's own though. If oils like that are typically okay to put into humidifiers then I would guess it's okay.

Yes! I have used it to make lotion, lotion bars, and lip balm. Love it! It does have a rich chocolate scent that is impossible to cover, so don't try. Use Shea butter instead. But the chocolate scent works really well combined with peppermint or orange. Basic recipe is equal parts butter (Shea or Cocoa) and an oil (coconut, olive) with beeswax (amount determines how firm the product will be). Best way to test a recipe is to start with small amounts, place ingredients in a small jelly jar, and heat in a pan of water until everything melts. Remove from heat, let sit for a few minutes and then stir in essentials oils if using. The jar becomes your storage container, so you don't have any cleanup.

Some essential oils can not be applied directly to the skin. You need to evaluate each separately to be sure

Yes. I did, just be careful not to add too much, seemed to make the consistency a little thinner. They also have a variety pack of 3 that already have essential oils in them. I just ordered w/essential oils, haven't received them yet.

Absolutely. We use these oils to our massage cream at our salon for aroma therapy during massage. :)

Yes I use them for transferring essential oils. I label a pipette for each oil and can use them again.

I use min for essential oils ..i made a recipe that was to thick and it didn't spray right but after I made it thinner it worked fine ..

I use them for perfume, room sprays, mixed w/ h2o diffuser, flea/tick control for my pets, create potpouri & re-scent older potpouri, sachets for closets/drawers; some people use these as tinctures to drink or as flavoring in cooking/baking. If you have never used these oils, I suggest going to the local library for more info. Hope this helps...CeDe

No. Pure essential oils (such as these) float on water's surface in concentrated droplets so should not be used with your diffuser. There are many reasonably-priced diffusers available for purchase that are specifically made for essential oils.

Yes you can, but I'm not sure about the amount since these are very very concentrated oils. It would be best to Goggle for information

Sorry, I do not know about that. I ordered this for my sister-in-law who been pregnant last year. I think you can use edible vegetable oil or coconut oil for baby lip moisture. They work very well as I used them for my son's skin moisture last year since he was 1 month old. Or you can give your baby some oily food, not too much. That will help also. Best wishes!

I would think so. I have used for various essential and carrier oils with no issues.
