Can you use another carrier oil if you have no grape seed oil if so which one can I use as I’m new to all of this but have a interest in making these for family

Thank you for the recipes, I will be trying them out, just need a couple more essential oils as I have most of them.

We unfortunately lost our local Rocky Mountain Soap Company shop here in Victoria and they make a really effective headache roll-on. I probably can order online but prefer supporting businesses locally where I can.

However making my own is something I’ve been thinking of. I’ll have to try your recipe. I kept the roll-on bottle so I can reuse that. I grow my own rosemary, lavender and mint so wondering if it is worth trying to make my own essential oils as well from the herbs?

Great post!! Like you I use rosemary in my migraine mixes. Itsvthevonly one that works for me. I do want to mention that rosemary eos should not be used for children at all and Peppermint/Eucalyptus should never be used for young children as it can affect their respiratory systems. (Peppermint has a high amount of menthol, and some chemotypes of Eucalyptus and Rosemary have high amounts of 1,8-Cineole, which are not safe for use around children.) I use separate rollerbottle and/or a inhaler for myself. Personally I use another company (not mlm’s) that’s affordable and has a line of child safe oils designed by Robert Tisserand.

I have used some of Now & Aur Cascia oils when I don’t have time to order as the health food store carry them locally.

There are some great recipes here – can’t wait to try the cold/flu one this fall. I never thot to add herbs to them Great idea!! I’ll go check out iherb. I need some sweet almond oil!!
