Lavender can be used in 3 different ways: topically, internally, and aromatically.
TOPICALLY
Lavender is considered a neat oil, which means it doesn’t have to be diluted before being applied to the skin. If using on a child, the elderly, or a person with sensitive skin, you can dilute in a carrier oil.
Apply to the pulse points or the area of concern.
INTERNALLY
For internal use, add 1-2 drops of lavender essential oil to a veggie capsule, water, or under the tongue.
Make sure the oils you are using are safe for internal use.
AROMATICALLY
For aromatic use, add 4-6 drops of lavender essential oil to your diffuser or inhale straight out of the bottle.
