Guest guest Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Andrew~ So, these essentials oils, can they be applied straight to the skin or would you recommend diluting them some? What is the best application? Youre always so informative and we thank you for it... Donna Alternative Answers lover yogiguruji <yogiguruji wrote: Good Morning!
