Instructions

1. Place the tea tree and jojoba oil in a glass jar with a tightly fitting lid.

2. Add the essential oils and put the lid on tightly. Shake the jar until the oils are thoroughly blended. Keep the jar tightly sealed.

3. Warm the rosemary and lavender scalp oil in the microwave or in a pot of simmering water until it's warm but not hot.

Tips & Warnings

• Put an old, clean towel on your pillow, because the essential oils can stain bed linens.
