Instructions
Create an Oil to Help Rejuvenate Your Hands
1. Choose 100% pure essential oils-only these offer healthful benefits. The label will state "100% pure." You can find them at health food stores and online. Don’t use synthetic oils as they do not have the same benefits.
2. Buy only almond oil that is specifically designed to be used for massage. It has been specially refined and prepared for use on the skin. You can get it at health food stores and online.
3. Select the formula that most appeals to your sense of smell. Most stores have tester bottles, so take a few whiffs and choose the scents you really like. For hand rejuvenation, there are multiple formulas to choose from. Here are two: Formula #1 is Geranium, Grapefruit, Sweet Bay and Black Pepper. Formula #2 is Lavender, Nutmeg, (Sweet) Basil, Lemon, Juniper Berries and Allspice.
4. Make Formula #1. To create the massage oil, first mix the essential oil with the almond oil, which is known as a "carrier" oil. Measure four teaspoons (20ml) of almond oil into the plastic bottle, then add 5 drops of Geranium essential oil, 5 of Grapefruit, 5 of Sweet Bay, and 5 of Black Pepper. Shake well.
5. Make Formula #2. To create the massage oil, first mix the essential oil with the almond oil, which is known as a "carrier" oil. Measure four teaspoons (20ml) of almond oil into the plastic bottle, then add 5 drops of Lavender essential oil, 4 of Nutmeg, 3 of (Sweet) Basil, 3 of Lemon, 3 of Juniper Berries, and 2 of Allspice. Shake well.
6. Massage the formula gently into both hands. Work it into the fingers and palms, then continue massaging it all the way up to the shoulders. Inhale the fragrance as you massage for added rejuvenation benefits.
