FAQs About Plant Therapy Organic Patchouli Essential Oil
Q: How do you usually use patchouli oil at home? A: Most people use it in a diffuser or mix it into a carrier oil for skin use. For this one, add 3 to 4 drops to 100 mL of water in a diffuser, or dilute it to 0.5% to 3% in a carrier oil before putting it on your skin.
Q: Does patchouli help with skin? A: A lot of people like patchouli in blends for dry or mature-looking skin. This one is organic Pogostemon cablin leaf oil, and people usually add just a little to a facial oil or body oil.
Q: Should I put this directly on my skin? A: No. Dilute it first, since patchouli essential oil is concentrated. I'd keep it in the 0.5% to 3% range in a carrier oil like jojoba or almond oil.
Q: I've heard patchouli is really strong. Will the smell take over the room? A: It can. Patchouli has a deep, earthy scent, and a little goes a long way. I'd start with 2 to 3 drops if you're sensitive to fragrance, even though the usual diffuser direction is 3 to 4 drops per 100 mL.
Q: Is there anything else in this besides patchouli? A: No, it's just one ingredient. This one uses certified organic Pogostemon cablin, which is patchouli leaf oil.
Q: My doctor said to be careful with essential oils. Any safety concerns with this one? A: Yes. Don't take it internally, keep it away from your eyes and pets, and if you're pregnant or nursing, check with your OB or midwife first. If your skin is really sensitive, patch test a diluted amount first.
