How to use Citronella Pure Essential Oil
For topical application, always dilute: 1–2 drops per teaspoon of carrier oil. In diffusers, start with 3–6 drops and adjust to preferred strength. When making sprays, combine 10–15 drops oil with 100 ml water or witch hazel. Shake well before each use. Avoid direct contact with eyes or sensitive areas. Test on a small patch of skin first—better safe than sorry!
