Troubleshooting
Oil is not coming out of the bottle
The oil is naturally thick and viscous. Remove the dropper cap, hold the bottle at a 45-degree angle, and tap the base firmly until the oil begins to flow.
Aroma is too strong
Reduce the number of drops in your diffuser or increase the ratio of carrier oil in your topical blends to achieve a more subtle scent.
