10%... What?

This essential oil is diluted at a 10% ratio, which means 1 part essential oil to 9 parts fractionated coconut oil.

Therefore, you must multiply by 10 the amount of any essential oil labeled "10%" to substitute it for pure essential oil.

When making blends, if you use a large amount of 10% essential oil, you must decrease the amount of carrier oil in our recipes to compensate for the volume occupied by the carrier oil contained in the diluted essential oil.

A few examples:

• Drops: a recipe calls for 1 drop of pure essential oil. You can substitute this pure essential oil with 10 drops of 10% essential oil. This tiny amount will not really have an impact on the total volume of a recipe.

• Milliliters: a recipe calls for 0.5 ml of pure essential oil. You can substitute this pure essential oil with 5 ml of 10% essential oil. Here, this amount has a greater impact on the total volume of a recipe. Thus, you subtract 4.5 ml (5 - 0.5 = 4.5, right!) from the amount of carrier oil the recipe might contain to adjust the total oil volume.

Precautions

• It is recommended to avoid it as a precaution during pregnancy, breastfeeding, and in children under 6 years of age.

• As Italian immortelle affects blood clotting, it is avoided as a precaution when taking anticoagulant medication whose dosage must be precise.
