For scenting the room: Pour water into the tray of STENDERS aroma lamp and add a couple of drops of the bergamot essential oil. Place a lit tea light candle on the lower part of the aroma lamp. After using, put the candle out.
For massage: Add 3-5 drops of bergamot essential oil to 2 tablespoons (10 ml) body oil or unscented STENDERS massage butter that has been melted in the aroma lamp. We recommend cooling the butter before applying to skin.
For bath: Dissolve 8-10 drops of bergamot essential oil in a tablespoon of honey or STENDERS bath milk that has been mixed with a little water. Add this mixture to the bath water. You can also add up to 150-300 grams of bath milk or 200-300 grams of bath salt, if your wish.
For hand/foot baths: In a small bowl, mix a tablespoon of unscented STENDERS bath milk or salt with water and add 2-4 drops of bergamot essential oil. Add this mixture to the bath water.
In a sauna: Pour water into a small tray and add a couple of drops of the bergamot essential oil. Place the tray into a hot sauna and feel the fresh aroma filling the room.
For your safety: We recommend performing an allergy test before using the oil - mix 3 drops of essential oil with 1 tablespoon of base oil, apply it to the forearm and cover with a plaster. If no allergic reaction can be observed on the skin after 12 hours, it is safe to continue using the oil.
Be especially cautious with using essential oils, if you are expecting a baby. If using essential oils during pregnancy, take half of the recommended amount. Keep the essential oils away from children!
