To keep things organized, I grab my Labels and write down the names of my blends and their main ingredients. I stick them onto each Bottle to make it look professional and fun.

Using the Essential Oil Tester Strips, I dip them into my new blends to test the scents. This is one of my favorite parts—seeing how my aromas actually come together and smell!
