How I use these oils for minor skin repair

I keep a Roller Ball Bottle handy at all times with a blend of some of these oils. Which oils do I use? Whichever I have available. However, I always include Lavender and Tea Tree. Together they are very soothing!

I dilute about 10-20 drops of Lavender Oil and 10-20 drops of the other oils as available with Fractionated Coconut Oil in the bottle and roll it on any little cuts or grazes that I might have. This mix can also be placed in a small spray bottle and lightly sprayed on the cuts etc. If you want to keep it really simple just drop some of the Essential Oil onto your palm along with a few drops of Fractionated Essential Oils or some hand cream and rub over the affected skin.
