In addition to the usual spots, I like it in my hair. I mix a drop or so with the product I use for shine in the palm of my hand and try to get it in fairly evenly.

I assume you're talking about essential oils. Often, they are concentrated so you don't need much.

But if you mean real oils, be careful. They are, literally, fat, and they stain.

I put a dab on the underside of one of my wrists, then place my other wrist's underside on it, a dab on each side of my neck just below the earlobe, and a dab on the back of my neck (the nape) for sillage (your wake).

If it's real oil, then remember that they can stain. Concentrated oils, like Arabian oils, are used in minute amount that are absorbed quickly and pose no problem. But more diluted ones can stain, unless they are dry oils.
