How to Use Turmeric Essential Oil

Add a few drops to water in a diffuser to introduce a deep, spicy warmth into the space.

Topical Use
Always dilute Turmeric Essential Oil with a suitable carrier oil before applying to the skin. A typical dilution rate is 1 to 2%, which is around 1 to 2 drops per 10 ml of carrier oil. Carry out a patch test before use.

Massage
Blend with a carrier oil and use in massage blends aimed at warming tired areas, particularly hands and feet.

Bathing
Add a small amount of properly diluted oil to warm bath water for a gently warming aromatic experience.

How to Dilute Turmeric Essential Oil

For sensitive skin, reduce to a 0.5 to 1% dilution. Always carry out a patch test before wider application.
