Instructions for Preparing "Purity & Protection" Foot & Nail Oil:

1. Sanitize: Thoroughly sanitize all your tools, containers, and the final bottle using isopropyl alcohol. Allow them to air dry completely.

2. Combine Carrier Oils: In a clean glass beaker, measure out the Jojoba Oil and Neem Oil. Mix well.

3. Add Essential Oils and Actives: To the carrier oil blend, carefully add the Tagetes Erecta Essential Oil, Tea Tree Essential Oil, Peppermint Essential Oil, Vitamin E, and Rosemary Extract CO2.

4. Mix Thoroughly: Stir the mixture gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly dispersed.

5. Bottle and Store: Carefully pour the finished oil blend into a dark glass dropper bottle.

Recommendations for Use:

• Dosage: This recipe uses 0.2% Tagetes Erecta Essential Oil, which is at the higher end of its recommended cosmetic dosage for targeted foot and nail care. Do not exceed the recommended maximum dosage of 0.2% for general cosmetic use.

• Temperature: Essential oils are sensitive to heat. Always add them to the cooled oil blend (room temperature) to preserve their therapeutic properties.

• Solubility: Tagetes Erecta Essential Oil is oil-soluble, making it ideal for oil blends, balms, and emulsions.

• Patch Test: Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin (e.g., inner forearm) before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergies.
