Does this oil need to be diluted with a carrier oil when using it on skin?

I usually add drops to warm bathwater. Mix with a few drops of almond or avocado for a sweet amazing scent.

This is 100% Tea Tree Oil. There are no carrier oils included and the labeling indicates that the solution is best used in combination with carrier oils such as olive oil or grapeseed oil, etc. You can think of 100% pure essential oil as something like "apple concentrate" - I'm sure that stuff is pretty rough, but you dilute it and you've got something that tastes much like apple juice.

This can be used to massage when it used with a carrier oil. Please check with aromatherapy sites for concentration of number of drops to carrier oil or check into aromatherapy book.

I bought my oil from "Now Foods," on amazon. Yes, it is already diluted to 5%, which means 20 drops of this product is equivalent to 1 drop of undiluted rose oil. For my purposes, this is just fine. The fact that it is prediluted also means that it can be applied directly to the skin straight from the bottle, without any further dilution. Good stuff!

Absolutely! This carrier oil can be used alone or mixed with others. It is an excellent moisturizer for hair and skin.

I don't know what the term 'carrier oil' means, so I can't answer your question. Sorry.

This is a pure oil. You'll need to dilute it in a carrier before applying directly to your skin. Great price for it!

I use oils topically and in a diffuser. Be careful with topical application as some oils are classified as "hot," which means they can irritate skin and tissue. They need to be diluted with a carrier oil. Just go back to their web site or google each oils before using until you get to know them. Internal use of essential oils is controversial. Some companies recommend internal use, but many clinical people advise against it. Again do your homework, thoroughly, particularly before ingesting essential oils.

I use a carrier oil... Because I think it is otherwise too strong for my personal choice.. I use coconut oil.4or 5 drops of balance to a tablespoon of carrier oil.I think it is also recommend on the website.But your personal choice as well. I love it.

Some oils can be used directly on skin, some have to be mixed with an oil. What oil are you asking about?

Yes, I am currently using it every night directly on my skin. It's a very lightweight oil and sinks into the skin fast.

Yes...but you have to wait for the oil to soak in your skin first. Awesome product.

I don't dilute the oil when I put it on my forehead and neck. My skin isn't very sensitive though .

I mix this with other oils (of choice) you need only a tinch of Lanolin, say 2 (two) drops of Lanolin to 7-8 drops of carrier oil. I do like for myself (as a body oil) grape seed oil. Different skin takes different oils, just research on which ones soak in to the layers of skin. Limited for the face oil, for myself I find Jojoba oil with a tinch of apricot oil (10 to 2)work well, I mix mine in a 2 ml bottle, dab on face and gently rub in, am in my 60's and this works well for me. Tip: always research to find what is best, do not just take the word of others. Have fun!!

I haven't found the need to.. I mix it with another carrier oil and comes out great

a carrier oil is not necessary, for this oil is used for healing as is...however, if you still want to dilute, I'd try 50/50..I am not familiar with argan oil

I dilute my essential oils in many different carrier oils. The only differences are some carrier oils have a slight scent but I use coconut oil so often on my skin and hair for its many benefits that I don't have a problem with the slight coconut smell altering the scent of the Thieves oil.
