Eucalyptus oil has that fresh-from-the-spa aroma. Learn how to make your own eucalyptus essential oil to add to your bath, diffuser, and more.
What you’ll need:
- ¼ oz fresh eucalyptus leaves (grow your own or check your local florist) crushed to release the oil
- 1 cup carrier oil (olive, coconut, or almond)
- Slow cooker (one you don’t use to cook as eucalyptus oil is toxic)
To make:
Combine ingredients into a slow cooker and let heat on low for 6 hours. After letting the oil cool, strain the oil through cheesecloth. Store in a cool, dark area (medicine cabinet, closet, etc.).
