I've just ordered some essential oils and am trying to figure out the simplest way to wear them. I was reading this thread in which some recommended against wearing just the EOs and, instead, to dilute them with alcohol and carrier oil.
These suggestions all seemed to involve mixing the EO with alcohol or carrier oil in a container, letting it sit, and then applying it from that. This seems like a lot of messy work to me.
A potential alternative: dab some of the carrier oil on your wrist and then a drop or two of the desired essential oil(s). Then either mix it in with your finger, or against your neck to apply and dilute at the same time.
I'm planning on giving this a shot once I get the supplies, but I'm curious if anyone else is doing anything like this, or have any other methods of applying one or two EOs for a simple scent.
