Questions
How many drops of lemongrass oil should I diffuse?
Two to four drops per 100 ml of water is usually enough; lemongrass carries well.
Does lemongrass oil keep bugs away?
We don't sell it for that. Our essential oils are not intended for pest control, so please use a registered product if you need insect protection.
How much should I dilute lemongrass oil for skin?
Go light, around 3 to 6 drops in 1 fl oz (30 ml) of carrier oil, since lemongrass can irritate sensitive skin. Patch-test first.
Is lemongrass oil the same as the cooking herb?
No. This is a concentrated essential oil for aromatic and external use only; keep it out of food.
