Let’s talk about roller blends!

Many of the oils we discussed above can be used undiluted, you can check out doTERRA’s website to see which ones can be used in this way, but for kids, elderly, and anyone with sensitive skin I recommend diluting these essential oils; it never hurts to dilute your oils.

Roller bottles are a great way to mix up some of your favorite oils while also adding a carrier oil and diluting them, so they are convenient to use when you need them. For the following five roller blend recipes you will need the oils listed above as well as a carrier oil and roller bottles. You can purchase the carrier oil from doTERRA directly they have fractionated coconut oil as well as a carrier oil for sensitive skin.
