Favorite Tested Essential Oil Combinations!
{per 1 oz container}
Each 1 oz container has a total of 30 drops of essential oils give or take a drop or two. In our experience, not only does this EO ratio successfully assist perspiration and body odor it’s also a one step application for immunity boosting, hormone balancing and thyroid assisting benefits depending on your blend! It may be helpful to know that 1 ounce equals 30ml. I’m confident this is a good dilution rate for deodorant!
