How to Safely Use Fall Essential Oil Blends

While diffusing essential oils is one of the easiest ways to enjoy the cozy aromas of fall, it’s important to use them safely so you and your family can enjoy all the benefits without worry. Here are a few expert tips to keep in mind when using your fall diffuser blends:

• Diffuse in intervals: For best results, diffuse your autumn essential oil blends for 30–60 minutes at a time, giving your body and senses a break in between.
• Dilute before topical use: If you’d like to create DIY fall body oils, sprays, or massage blends, dilute essential oils with a carrier oil (like Jojoba or Fractionated Coconut Oil). Start with about 2–3 drops of essential oil per teaspoon of carrier oil.
• Keep away from children and pets: Some oils may be too strong or irritating for little ones or animals. Always research child- and pet-safe essential oils before diffusing around them.
• Store properly: Keep your essential oils in a cool, dark place to maintain their potency all season long.
