10%... What?

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

You must therefore multiply by 10 the quantity of any "10%" essential oil to substitute it for a pure essential oil.

Regarding concoctions, if you use a large quantity of 10% essential oil, you must reduce the quantity of vegetable oil in your recipes to compensate for the volume occupied by the vegetable oil contained in the diluted essential oil.

Some 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 quantity has no real 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 quantity 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 quantity of vegetable oil that 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 helichrysum affects blood clotting, it is avoided as a precaution in cases where anticoagulant medication is taken and requires precise dosage.

To learn all about safe use adapted to your health condition of Italian helichrysum essential oil, consult an aromatherapist.
