How to Use Essential Oil Scent Strips

We’re all passionate about essential oils. That’s probably the reason you find yourself reading an aromatherapy blog (and, likewise, why we find ourselves writing one). With that passion comes curiosity and exploration. You’ve likely come across an aroma you’re not acquainted with and, without a second thought, brought the bottle under your nose to inhale. The next time this happens, wait before taking a big whiff because there’s a better way to test that aroma!

1. Dip the narrow end of the strip into the oil (or put 2-3 drops on it) and let it sit for a few seconds.
2. Hold the strip 3-5 inches from your nose and take a short whiff.
3. Afterward, use the wide end of the strip to write down which oil it is so you don’t forget or get it mixed up.
