🏅 Headline
A warm citrus ritual for skin, timed for after sundown.

✨ What you need
- 30 ml jojoba or argan carrier oil
- maximum 7 drops Bitter Orange (about 1%)
- small glass bottle

🤷‍♀️ How to do it
1. 1) Add 30 ml of carrier oil to a clean glass bottle. 2) Add no more than 7 drops of Bitter Orange, staying at or below the phototoxic safety limit. 3) Cap and roll gently to combine. 4) Patch test, then apply in the evening only, to skin that will stay covered or out of sunlight for at least 12-18 hours.

💡 Pro tip
This oil is strongly phototoxic; never exceed the low dilution limit on skin that will see daylight.

Evening only, well away from sun exposure.

Freshen linens and living spaces with a bright natural mist.

✨ What you need
- 100 ml spray bottle
