Suggested Use One of the more masculine of essential oils, Cedarwood is popularly used in toiletries for men. For a light aftershave facial oil, add 1 drop Cedarwood, 2 drops of Patchouli and 2 drops of Bergamot to 15ml of Jojoba carrier oil.
To help improve the condition of the scalp and encourage healthy hair, add 3 drops each of Cedarwood and Rosemary to 10ml of your favorite carrier oil and massage thoroughly into the scalp. Leave for as long as possible before shampooing out.
Cedarwood's anti-septic, deodorising and insect-repellent properties make it a very useful oil for burning or diffusing. Try blending with any of the citrus oils.
Specific Safety Advice This oil should be used in moderation, never be used during pregnancy and it may cause skin irritation in those with sensitive skin.
