Therefore, patience is required.HOW TO LIQUEFY A THICK ESSENTIAL OIL- Warm the bottle in your hand. Sometimes, heating the bottle won't help, so tap the bottom of the bottle as this may help release the oil.If this doesn't work:- Place the bottle in a small Ziploc bag and squeeze out as much air as possible (to protect the label and prevent the bag from floating), then place the bag in a larger container of hot (not boiling) water to gently warm it for about 5 to 10 minutes. Voila, it's out of the dropper!- This procedure will need to be repeated each time before use as the oil will become thick again.- Avoid using a microwave as the oil may overheat and spoil.- Tips and tricks: You can remove the dropper and use a pipette to extract drops, or a toothpick or needle to extract the desired amount from the bottle.BOTANICAL NAME Amyris balsamifera PART OF THE PLANT EXTRACTED WoodORIGIN Dominican RepublicCULTURAL WildCHEMOTYPE VALERIANOL, 7 & 10 EPI EUDESMOL, ELEMOLOTHER NAME -EXTRACTION METHOD Steam distillationODOR Woody, sweet, persistentCOLOR Pale yellow to amber yellow
