How much lavender essential oil do you need to dilute in water to make an antiseptic cleanser?

Do you mean anti-septic for the skin or for cleaning surfaces?





For either one, you'd be better off diluting the oil in something before adding water. You'll still have to shake it well before each use, but it will help disperse the oils more evenly.





For the skin, try using witch hazel. Add about 15 drops of lavender eo to each ounce of witch hazel.





For countertops, or whatever surface you're cleaning, use alcohol or vinegar mixed with water, with the same amount of essential oils (~15d/oz), or you could even go a little higher.How much lavender essential oil do you need to dilute in water to make an antiseptic cleanser?
You know what they say oil and water don't mix, If you wanted to just wipe something down, you might try, just putting the oil full strength on a cloth and do it that way, otherwise i think you may have to mix it with a carrier oil, like olive oil, or almond oil or something like that, i looked in some of my books for you but didn't find anything, so my best guess is go to the web.How much lavender essential oil do you need to dilute in water to make an antiseptic cleanser?
You cannot make an antiseptic cleanser with lavender. It just doesn't do that.
Essential oil is a skin softer not a antiseptic cleanser.You bad witch
If true, directions should be on the box.
