Cosmetic Recipe: Aromatic Lupin Infusion Body Oil

Instructions:

1. In a clean, dark glass bottle, combine the jojoba oil and sweet almond oil.
2. Carefully add the Lupinus polyphyllus Essential Oil, starting with a smaller amount and adjusting to your desired fragrance intensity.
3. If desired, add the Vitamin E oil.
4. Close the bottle tightly and gently shake to ensure the essential oil is well dispersed in the carrier oils.

Application Recommendations:

• After showering or bathing, apply a small amount of the aromatic body oil to slightly damp skin.
• Massage gently until the oil is fully absorbed.
• Use as a daily moisturizer or as a massage oil.
• Perform a patch test on a small area of skin before widespread use to check for any sensitivity.
• Store the oil in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.
• The aroma intensity can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of essential oil drops. Start with a lower concentration, especially if you have sensitive skin or are new to this essential oil.
• Be mindful of potential photosensitivity, although less common with herbaceous oils, and avoid prolonged sun exposure after application if you notice any reaction.
