Joyfulness perfume recipe

August 6, 2009 by jessica neaves

Joyfulness perfume recipe
From Essential Oil Recipes

*  2 drops Basil
* 1 drops Geranium
* 3 drops Melissa
* 2 drops Sandalwood

Firstly we start with the base. You can use alcohol or a carrier oil but a mixture of both is ideal. An odorless spirit such as vodka is the best choice along with jojoba. Jojoba has a long shelf life and once it’s on the skin it tends to dry out leaving your wonderful scent behind.

As Jojoba is the most expensive carrier oil I recommend that while you are experimenting you use one of the cheaper, odorless carrier oils such as almond oil or apricot kernel oil. Once you are happy with your experimenting you can then blend using jojoba oil.

Equipment you will need:
* Measuring spoons
* Small funnel
* Small colored bottle

Instructions:
1. Measure 1 teaspoon of your carrier oil (jojoba, almond or apricot kernel) and 1 teaspoon of alcohol (vodka), using the small funnel, into your bottle.
2. Add the essential oils from your chosen recipe one drop at a time. You may need to use a dropper if your essential oil jars do not already have dropper measures built in.
3. Shake the mixture well after adding each drop.
4. Put the lid on tightly and store in a cool, dark place for a minimum of 12 days shaking at least 3 times each day.
5. Enjoy!
