Supplies
Eucalyptus Essential Oil
Witch Hazel
Water
Amber Glass Spray Bottle – or a recycled spray bottle you have on hand. Amber bottles are a good choice when using essential oils because the amber helps protect the properties of the oil. Using glass instead of plastic bottles is a good choice because some essential oils can draw toxics out of plastic.
Instructions
Add 10 drops of eucalyptus oil into your spray bottle.
Add 2 teaspoons of witch hazel to your bottle. Witch hazel will help the spray to dry faster.
Fill the rest of the bottle with water.
Shake to combine.

Hello
Thanks for the video.
Though am wondering how the water and oil got to perfectly mix because oil is less dense than water.
Hey, I just make sure to shake it before spraying, to blend the oil back into water.
