At this point, you can add the essential oil and stir this in until well blended. It is important to check the flash point of the essential oil to ensure you are adding it at the correct temperature. For Exempel, Eterisk olja av lavendel har en flampunkt på 70°c. Detta innebär att blandningens temperatur måste vara under 70 ° C när du tillsätter lavendel. Detta är för att doften inte ska avdunsta.
