Carrier Oils are used to dilute and "carry" essential oils for use on the body. Essential Oils, in their purest state, are often too highly concentrated to use directly on the skin, especially when working with children, elderly and those who are frail. For many applications, they need to be diluted in a Carrier Oil. Using a dilution of 1-2 tsps of a carrier oil to 1-3 drops of your chosen Essential oil is a good general formula.
