LESS IS MORE / Essential oils

 Essential oils are highly concentrated and potent aromatic extracts so that means we only need a very small amount to experience their benefits.  Always err on the side of LESS.  That means if you want to add some essential oils to your facial cleanser, try this ratio:  3 drops of essential oil to 1 TBSP of unscented cleanser.  Not only are we being cautious for how our skin may react, but we are also being mindful for how many plants it has taken to create those 3 drops of essential oil.  Approaching the use of essential oils with respect and mindfulness is key.
