WHY USE ROLLER BOTTLES?

Roll-on bottles, often called roller bottles, are useful for the following reasons:

1. You can use them to create blends customized to your needs.

2. Your blends can be pre-diluted and ready for use.

3. They make it easy to apply blends without creating a mess.

4. They can be conveniently carried on your person or in a bag to use whenever you need them.


WHICH SIZE OF ROLLER BOTTLE SHOULD YOU MAKE?

The most common and easiest roller bottle size is 10 mL. It’s small enough to carry with you in your purse but big enough to last through a bunch of applications. Mine usually last at least 4-6 weeks, depending on which one it is.

Once you’re done using your roll-on, empty essential oil rollers can easily be cleaned and re-filled to re-use again.


ESSENTIAL OIL RECIPES FOR ROLLER BOTTLES

One of the simplest methods to enjoy the advantages of your essential oils is by using a roller bottle. Before you get started creating your rollerball blends, decide what you would like your essential oil blend to do, and pay special attention to the needs of your family.

Do a little investigating to figure out if the oil you’re considering comes with any special precautions or warnings.


GENERAL DILUTION RATES IN ROLL-ON BOTTLES

• 0.5% for infants 6-24 months: 1 drop of essential oil to 10 mL (=2 tsp) of carrier

oil

• 1% for elderly or facial application: 3 drops of essential oil to 10 mL (=2 tsp) of

carrier oil

• 2% for daily use: 6 drops of essential oil to 10 mL (=2 tsp) of carrier oil

• 5% for short term use: 15 drops of essential oil to 10 mL (=2 tsp) of carrier oil


HOW TO MAKE A ROLLER BOTTLE

• Start with a 10 ml glass roller bottle

• Add the drops of essential oil.

• Fill the rest of the 10 ml roller bottles with carrier oil. It’s helpful to use a little

funnel like these when filling the roller bottles with carrier oils. Be sure to leave a

little space at the top so that’s there’s room to put the roller ball back on.

• Snap-on the rollerball

• Shake the bottle to mix the carrier oil and essential oils

• Let sit for 24 hours so the essential oils have time to blend.
