What are the percent dilution of all essential oils?

The percent dilution of essential oils varies depending on their intended use. Common dilutions include 1-3% for topical applications, which equates to about 1-3 drops of essential oil per teaspoon (5 ml) of carrier oil. For children, the elderly, or those with sensitive skin, a lower dilution of 0.5-1% is often recommended. Always consider the specific oil and its safety guidelines when determining dilution.
