Essential Oil Uses &
Formulas
Essential
oils can be used in a variety of applications. The following methods are only
guidelines. There are many sources of information available with
formulas for these applications. Some may recommend using a higher
percentage of essential oils. Victorie Incorporated places an emphasis
on essential oil safety and will generally recommend a lower percentage of
essential oils.. It is also very important to check the safety information
about each
essential oil you use.
Anointing Oil - Anointing
Oils can be made using different concentrations of essential oils. To make
an anointing oil with a 10% essential oil concentration you will need to add 3
ML ( 60-75 drops) of essential oil or essential oil blend to approximately 1 oz.
of a carrier oil. Anointing oils do not need to have "in your face-strong"
aroma to be effective. **Remember you are using concentrated pure plant
extracts. Cinnamon, Cassia, Calamus and other oils are unsafe if used
incorrectly.
Formula No.1:
Frankincense 35 Drops
Myrrh 35 Drops
Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1 oz.
Perfume
– You can add up to 20 drops of essential oil to 1/3 ounce of carrier oil.
There are two types of carrier oils that work well for perfumes, jojoba oil and
fractionated coconut oil. These carrier oils have a long shelf life and are
nearly odorless. Perfumes typically have dilution rates of 15-30%
essential oil, 70-85% carrier oil or alcohol base. Perfumes with a
concentration of 30% essential oils are typically applied only to the pulse
points on the body.
Q. I want to make a perfume
to smell like the Frangipani Flowers in Hawaii. How come the Frangipani
Absolute does not smell like Frangipani Flowers?
A. Essential Oil, Absolutes
and CO2 Extracts are concentrated plant material. They will never smell
exactly like the flower in bloom because these extracts are in a concentrated
form. You will need to dilute the oil to capture the more natural scent
characteristic of the plant or flower. Please note: each extraction
method also captures different chemical constituents of the plant or flower.
The CO2 extract will smell different than an essential oil or absolute.
Dead Sea Bath Salts
– Add 8-12 drops of essential oil or essential oil blend to a one ounce,
glass, and fine mist spray bottle. Fill the remainder of the bottle with
distilled water. Shake the bottle well before each use. Be sure to check
the safety precautions about the essential oils. Do not use a plastic bottle.
Essential oils will erode the plastic.
Bath
Oil– Add 5-7 drops of essential oils or essential oil blend to one ounce
of carrier oil. Pour a small amount of the blend into a tub of running water.
Stir the water and oil together before getting in the tub. Be sure to check the
safety precautions about the essential oils added to the carrier oil.
Massage
– Add 30-40 drops of essential oils to 4 ounce of carrier oil. There are
many different types of carrier oils; sweet almond oil, olive oil, soybean oil,
jojoba oil, fractionated coconut oil, etc. Be sure to check the safety
precautions about the essential oils added to the carrier oil and shelf life of
the fixed oils you chose. You do not want to use a high ratio of essential
oils in a massage formula.

used for this application. However, remember the oils will erode the plastic
bottle in time. Be sure to check the essential oil safety precautions about the
