HAIR, SKIN, AND NAIL CARE ESSENTIAL OIL RECIPES

CUTICLE CARE

  • 15 drops lavender essential oil
  • 10 drops eucalyptus essential oil
  • 10 drops grapefruit essential oil
  • 5 drops peppermint essential oil
  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) extra virgin olive oil
  • Fractionated coconut oil
1. Clean and dry a small glass bottle. To hold your homemade cuticle oil, you’ll need a small glass bottle that’s approximately the size of a nail polish container. Rinse the bottle out well with water to ensure that it’s clean, and then allow it to dry upside for a couple of hours to ensure there’s no excess moisture inside.[1]
  • A bottle with a medicine dropper top is a good option for the oil because it makes it easy to apply a small amount.
  • A bottle with a roller ball top also works well for the oil.
2. Combine the lavender oil, eucalyptus, grapefruit, peppermint, and olive oils in the bottle. When the bottle is dry, add 15 drops of lavender essential oil, 10 drops of eucalyptus essential oil, 10 drops of grapefruit essential oil, 5 drops of peppermint essential oil, and 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of extra virgin olive oil to it. Close the bottle and shake gently to mix the oils slightly.[2]
  • Lavender essential oil is very moisturizing, but it also has antibacterial properties that can ward off bacteria that might infect the cuticles.
  • Eucalyptus, grapefruit, and peppermint essential oils have antifungal properties, so they can help keep your nails healthy.
  • Extra virgin olive oil easily penetrates the skin, so it moisturizes and softens cuticles very effectively.
3. Add enough coconut oil to fill the bottle and shake well to mix. After the essential oils and olive oils are in the bottle, pour enough fractionated coconut oil into the bottle to fill it. Cover the bottle once more, and shake it well to ensure that the oils are all well blended.[3]
  • Fractionated coconut oil is a lightweight moisturizer so it softens and conditions the cuticles well.
