Disclaimer: I am not a practicing aromatherapist but love incorporating essential oils into my daily life. The following is based on my own research and experience. Always consult with a professional practitioner before trying any aromatherapy recipe as different people can react differently to different oils. Never use more than 5 drops in any of the following blends.
Essential Oils For Chapped Lips: Rose, Tea Tree, Peppermint, Chamomile (Roman), Eucalyptus, Neroli, Frankincense, Geranium, Sandalwood
Carrier Oils For Chapped Lips: Coconut, Sweet Almond Oil, Rosehip, Aloe Vera Gel (This is not a carrier oil but is extremely effective)
Method & Dosage
Blend all the ingredients and mix well. Apply to lips. Allow it to absorb and do not wash it off. Repeat 2-3 times per day. The following recipes make treatments for 1 day, apart from blend 4 which should last you 2-3 days.
