You could most definitely use olive oil for infusions — it is quite common and widely used. 😃LisaLisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14566391113401195535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-85051859655284495702023-11-08T03:00:33.324+01:002023-11-08T03:00:33.324+01:00Probably a silly question but is there any reason ...Probably a silly question but is there any reason why you shouldn't use Extra Virgin Olive Oil for this infusion please?Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01933896527839993087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-61057982965138255812020-06-11T07:22:40.437+02:002020-06-11T07:22:40.437+02:00Hi Maria,

Do you infuse all the herbs at once or do you make 3 separate oils and then mix the oils?LisaLisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14566391113401195535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-35438683942976083352014-01-28T20:37:46.085+01:002014-01-28T20:37:46.085+01:00For a few time now I make a lavender + calendula +...For a few time now I make a lavender + calendula + camomile infused oil that I find absolutely great as a post-epilation soothing oil. Being oil, it will help to remove those little lumps of wax here and there, it's nourishing, soothing and mild with skin leaving a very delicate smell of camomile and lavender (calendula oil for me smell quite neutral).<br />I think it could also work very well as a baby's massage oil :)Maríahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501079837676309732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-83837763632240852022014-01-28T12:35:18.542+01:002014-01-28T12:35:18.542+01:00Mariá - I totally agree!Mariá - I totally agree!LisaLisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14566391113401195535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2131647485414323768.post-72705142449566476852014-01-27T21:02:01.743+01:002014-01-27T21:02:01.743+01:00I think the calendula infused oil I'd a must-h...I think the calendula infused oil I'd a must-have for those delicate skins, a baby's, sensitive skin, etc. I works so so good...Maríahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501079837676309732noreply@blogger.com
