Our Grannies knew a thing or two about cures when there was nothing
else available. Almond oil is a great carrier for other oils that are
too strong to use by themselves i.e. lavender oil.

Unless you are allergic to lavender oil, it can be used on your skin by
itself. It is wise always to do a patch test though, before using it
for the first time. Other essential oils can be harmful unless you know
what you are doing.
