  • I just started growing my own lavender plants.So how would i make my own oils for the lavender plant I'm growing

  • Even tho this is not essential oil I'm still going to try it because I just want the scent thx for the information

  • essential oils are not the same as infusions. essential oils are made through the distillation process and are much more potent and fragrant. BIG difference. nice vid on oil infusions though.

  • @DanielleBabyBliss very important point!

  • Comment removed

  • Awesome video, my mother used to make her own home-made oils back in her "coven" days. My favorite was always her clove oil. I don't remember what else she used, but it was almost addictive!

  • soo will this work for making insence?

  • how long can i keep the oil after sent is infused? some say a year but i don't know. i make pine needles. o and would that irritate my skin. Ive done a test on it and it didn't bother me. The pine needle oil i mean

  • how much material verses oil do you put

  • Interesting! So how do I measure proportions for strength? What's the minimum and maximum amount of rosemary herbs and oil I need to make qualitative essential oil?

  • thank you for sharing your secrets with us, I'm going to use it to make my daughters

    party favors for her sweet 15.

  • your better off steam distilling

  • I love this!! Thank you for sharing this info. Much appreciated:-)

  • the longer the stronger? thats what she said.

  • How many times do we have to tell you that these are *NOT* Essential Oils?

    These are *INFUSED* oils.

  • This is not Essential oils, these are simple oil infusions and nothing more, Essial oils are steam distilled and or CO2 oe SO2 extracts, Again this is mis information

  • Cool vid but I'd much rather buy than wait a couple months to smell good lol

  • excellent video woman great job...Keep up the fantastic work

  • so can i use dried herb cause that's the only thing i can get my hands on at the moment(as being a 15 year old intrested on these things with a mother working in a herbs&spices company)

  • thanks this is a very helpful video 5/5

  • is tht cheese??????

  • Awesome vid

  • could you use this method of making oil in making candles ?

  • just like making wine ! lol

    thanks for the video

  • if u add alcohol it takes less time

  • thank you i was looking for a way to make essential oils with out a distillery

  • Was that just the peel of the grapefruit that you're using for the demonstration?

  • yes!! only the peel.

  • how can we make cinnamon essential oil?

  • Thanks for answering!

  • cool video, thanks

  • In other woods go to a store and buy the stuff you want. who waits months and months or even years for a fragrant oil?

  • The oils will be all natural with NO chemicals when making them on your own. If you are not envirnmentally concious, it is STILL beneficial as homemade oils last longer, are more potent, and over all CRAZY cheaper. The only draw back is the time, but if you turn it into a hobby people will be willing to pay as creating them is next to NOTHING, but the profit can be as outrageously lucrative! =)

  • herbs huh? does that mean i can out dank bud into it?

  • me?

  • no her

  • Could I use olive oil? Would that work as well as the almond oil or less so? Would it combine the 'essence' as it were or both the olives and whatever I'm using? -I doubt it but I could definitely be wrong.- Thanks a bunch, ta!

  • Don't use olive oil, it will go rancid. I almost always use jojoba oil, it seems to have the longest shelf life.

  • @triv33 Oh, thanks a heap! I would never have known otherwise. Jojoba, hmm? Now where to get that...?

  • @Blackthorne369 --just use the google--I get mine from The Essential Oil Company--they are online, but have a 50$ minimum order policy. Bitter Creek, Snowdrift farms--just type essential oils or soapmaking supplies into your search engine. Snowdrift has an amazing amount of info and recipes and Bitter Creek also has great info.

  • @triv33 where do i get jojoba oil

  • nice video , tank you :)

  • this video is greatt! thankyou! what is the fastest scent you can make? i mean i don't want to wait 5 years....i'll forget about it

  • first comment again? mhmm
