1. Vaporisation: Add 5-10 drops of essential oil into warm water by using diffuser.  

2. Massage: Add 4-5 drops of essential oil into 10ml of carrier oil for facial or body massage or as a home-made body oil after shower. It is very good for muscular and spiritual relaxation.

3. Bathing: Add 8-10 drops for a full bath. It can stimulates blood circulation and is ideal way to relax.

4. Inhalation: Add 3-5 drops of essential oil into a bowl of steaming water. Place a towel over the head, close your eyes and inhale deeply. It can help to relieve physical and mental stress, especially headache and respiratory system problems.

5. Clay mask (Cleansing and Whitening): Add 1-2 drops of essential oils to the mixtures of floral water and clay mask.

6. Personal skin care product (e.g Shampoo，Bath Gel，Facial cream etc.): Add 4-5drops of essential oils to your own skin care products, create the unique personalised skin care products.

7. Perfume: Add 4-5 drops of essential oils and 4-10 drops of solubiliser into 10ml water to create your own personalised perfume.

Contra-indication: NIL

Blending Base Measurement:

1% Essential oil in (5/10/30/50/100)mL = (1/2/6/10/20) drops per volume of essential oil respectively

2% Essential oil in (5/10/30/50/100)mL = (2/4/12/20/40) drops per volume of essential oil respectively

2.5% Essential oil in (5/10/30/50/100)mL = (3/5/15/25/30) drops per volume of essential oil respectively

Eye care = 0.5% Face = 1% - 2% Adult full body = 2% - 2.5%

*Remarks: Thin oil can apply onto skin directly. Thick oil is sticky, diluted with thin oil will be better 

Proportion: Thick Oil 10-20％Thin Oil 80-90％

Anti-inflammatory activity The study shows that Cedrus atlantica essential oil used for the anti-inflammatory activity has low concentration which gave 50% inhibition against 5-LOX in the in vitro inhibition test of 5-lipoxygenase activity.

This shows that cedarwood performs good on antibacterial activity. Source: Derwich, E., Benziane, Z., & Boukir, A. (2010).

The experiment examined the effect of cedarwood essential oil inhalation on pain behaviour and its mechanisms related to the descending opioid, serotonergic, noradrenergic or dopaminergic systems in a mouse model of postoperative pain, induced by a plantar incision surgery (PIS) in the plantar aspect of the foot of mice.
