You are making lavender infused oil and with the alcohol, it’s lavender extract. Both very useful and your technique is OK. However, these are not “essential oils”. The difference in naming them is important. Good to see you put the flowers to good use. Thanks for the video.

Just to make it clear, it's not essential oil you are making. But an infused oil. Essential oils mean the oil of the plant is extracted. Just so you know. But great video for a good oil rub

I watched a video where a lady crushed them before she put them in the oil. Then she filter thru cloth and screen afterwards. she used almond oil, and I'm gonna try argon oil and rice bran oil, but also if you use alcohol, you want to use denatured alcohol so the scent is not of alcohol but only the lavender...but that is usually used later on after making the oil.

@luciaalejandre7248 Год назад

@entubaotraducciones272 2 года назад

Dunno what kinda lavender u're using either French or English or any other but just saying cuz I do grow my own and I can tell my leaves have plenty of trichomes where the terpenes are produced which are a secondary metabolite of the plant that means are not estrictly necessary for growth or reproduction so the plant won't make them unless necessary etc etc blah blah and so they way I grow which is estrictly bio living soils it produces quite a lot of it and complex terpene profiles but anyways what I'm trying to say is that we're wasting a lot of it if only using the flowers as there can be a lot of trichomes in the leaves as well so we can add that to the mix and use it for compost afterwards anyways just like the rest. And about all those folks saying an extraction is not an "essential" oil, I suppose they emphasize on the "essential" part as there may be another components of the plant left but once the alcohol is evaporated and the oil, the fatty compounds, that's the trichomes, are extracted from the plant, what u think u're left with if not oil :? Maybe not "essential", but if not oil, can u tell me what's in there then :? Thanks. And thanks for the video, appreciated. Was wondering if heating the coconut oil wld help. And btw do ur own research and don't believe anything I'm saying but Linalool which is most present terpene in Lavandula has been proven to be effective in prevention of breast cancer, and even treatment. So there u go a bold claim but the research is there and imo it is a powerful use of this great plant on top of all the rest mentioned. Regards. Imo.

@alexandracaceres4689 2 года назад

Hi! I think that this is amazing, but you are not making essential oil. Essential oil has to be made by distilling, whereas you are making infused oil, when you let the smell infuse into the oil. There are some easier ways to distill essential oil, but it requires time and mastery, whereas infused oil is truly just putting thinks into oil and letting it soak. Just stating the difference.

Hello, i'm looking to make an essential oil out of Rum, because I Rarely by alcohol, except Rum which i use for pastries.. Would that work..? Also when the infusion is done, you said leave the bottle open for the alcohol to dissipate, then only what's left is essential oil..,...how/why ..? thanks

@VanessaDixon 11 месяцев назад

Great question. To make atrue essential oil you'll need steam distilling equipment, otherwise you can make an infused oil which is what I did here. The alcohol version was actually more of a tincture than an infused oil

@charliethomas2217 2 года назад

Do not listen to her. 1) none of these are essential oils. 2) letting it sit in oil doesn't make it lavender essential oil, the oil will pull oil soluble compounds and infuse it, yes, but that's not essential oil. 3) if u press herbs effectively, u CAN actually press the oil free, but it's very messy. 4) Tinctures need a MINIMUM of six weeks to fully pull alcohol soluble compounds from herbs and can sit for MONTHS before being used.

@doreenfleming1444 3 года назад

The lavender infused oil can be used in recipes for lotion bars and lip balm. You are best using true essential oils for a diffuser as these are more concentrated and you only need a few drops in the water. Using the extract or the infusion in a diffuser, you would need to use a lot more. Producing what is technically a true essential oil is also known as steam distilling. To make an essential oil, you have to distill the Lavender buds, capture the steam, and condense the steam into a liquid. This requires heat, pressure, equipment, skill and patience.
