4. Add Essential Oils: Carefully measure and add Pogostemon Cablin Patchouli Essential Oil, lavender essential oil, and frankincense essential oil to the oil mixture.

5. Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture gently but thoroughly to ensure all essential oils are well dispersed within the carrier oils. Avoid vigorous shaking, which can introduce air bubbles.
