Drying Herbs for Infused Oils

I can sometimes find the world of growing and making your own natural products a little overwhelming and complex, so I really wanted to share what I believe is the very easiest and best way to start. And that is growing and drying some herbs, and then infusing them in oil. It is a simple, lovely process that will reward you with an oil that is easy to use, and full of  many beneficial properties.

Oils feed and nourish the skin, leaving it soft and smooth, and many of the components in essential oils extracted from the herb in the infusing process are small enough to travel through the skin and into the body. So, rather than using a bought body lotion in the mornings or after a bath and shower, it is a great alternative to use a home grown and infused herbal oil. It is an even better idea…
