Could you use this for hot (warm) body oils?

I wouldn't recommend putting hot oils in it. I think it will clog up pretty easily as it's designed for water. Although I do put essential oil in it with water.

I cannot imagine why not. It is 100% cottonseed oil (if my memory is correct, I am out of town and cannot check the bottle right now). When mixed with water I just rub it in in place of body lotion. It may be a bit oily to put it on directly, and then put on clothes. But, perhaps it would work just fine.

I wouldn't even consider it! Would get too hot to handle. Also, what would one do with leftover heated oil?Flavor change for sure. Too attractive to take a chance on damaging the appearance by exposing it to excessive heat.mmm

I don't think I would. There is no separate area for any additional oils and I would think the mechanism would get gummed up after a time. Just my opinion...

Have not tried this unit. Megahome makes another unit specially designed for essential oils. It has a lower heat.

I probably would not, as it says on the label, not for human consumption. I would by oils specifically for diffusers, you might look at doTerra. Amazon has those...

If you were to use the right oil I have no doubt it would help to a degree. Maybe Doterra purify or lemon.

I use them on my laboratory hotplate nearly every day with no ill effects. Of course an oil bath would likely be better and reduce thermal stresses somewhat, however mine work just fine directly on the hotplate surface which reaches 400*C.

I absolutely wouldn't, sorry - I only use it on cold or warm things, not that hot. They will melt.

Yes ... I use coconut oil as body oil. Also it is good for sunburn care as well. After sun.

Yes, you can. The smell is very pleasant to most, and some people use this oil for perfume, but some think it has a mustier smell than rose oil (which is much more expensive).

I wouldn't. Beeswax melts at a higher temperature than paraffin (about 144 F compared to about 99 F), so it will burn you if you put it on your skin while it is liquid.

You can, but I would use Heet, the yellow bottle, it works best for hot temp and burning longer. Hope this helpsSteve

I do not believe so. This has been heated, no matter what they claim. Turns brown when melted (should be clear) and does not have coconut scent. This is OK for a body oil, but would not use it to cook with unless you can only afford this price. You get what you pay for with these oils and the bit more is well worth it. I use it for hands and to put in my dog's food. Good for dog's coat. Hope this helps to make a better choice.

There is no place to add oil, and the manual specifically states to only use water in the tank. Given that this is a cool mist humidifier and has no warming ability, it's probably not suitable for oils.

Hello, you can use this wonderful butter as is but it is very thick. I use it to create body butter and hair lotion. It was work wonders on my son's eczema. I mix it with coconut oil and other essential oils. I LOVE THIS BUTTER.

Yes, you can. Mostly I use it in a combination with other oils (base and essential) as face and hand cream. Results are very good.
