CARRIER OILS
A carrier oil is a fatty oil we use to dilute essential oils (when applying topically or mixing up a roller bottle). Our essential oils are very pure and a little goes a long way. Some of the more popular carrier oils are coconut, grapeseed, almond, and olive oil. You can choose what you like best. I've linked my fave carrier oils below.
OILFOLK HANDBOOK
We've compiled our favorite recipes & tips all into one printable booklet for you. This also includes a dilution chart & all the need to know info on using the oils right in your starter kit.

DIFFUSER UPKEEP
To clean your diffuser, per your warranty--use RUBBING ALCOHOL. Brush over the metal plate with it (if it is really needed, you can soak it in rubbing alcohol over night). If you are cleaning it, be careful to only have the water or alcohol in the places they are meant to go. Avoid getting them in areas of the diffuser they should be avoided.
Make sure you are using the type of water that is specific for that diffuser, it will effect the diffuser if you do something different. Never use hot water, heating your oils will break down the properties and benefits of the oil, so make sure it is not hot water you are using in the diffuser.
There should be a fill line (a lot of times it is a red dot) make sure you are not filling the diffuser past that line, or it will effect how much, or if the diffuser will diffuse.
If something goes wrong or happens, they are covered under a warranty--so it's important to follow those guidelines. Let me know if something happens--I want to help however I can!
AMAZON LIST
Whether you're looking to whip up some recipes or want some pretty roller bottles to keep on hand, I've compiled my Amazon Prime faves for you. From resources to accessories.
NOTE: when buying bottles for your oils, ALWAYS use glass and not plastic. Essential oils break down synthetics, which includes plastic. They will break down the plastic releasing the toxins, which will end up in whatever you are using… and that's no beuno.
