Notes
Don't feel like you have to use all of the oils listed in the recipe. Just use as many as you can, or swap them out for oils you already have on hand.
Your oil will stay fresh longer if you use amber bottles, but it isn't necessary. Just store your cuticle oil in a cool, dark place and keep it away from direct sunlight.
This blend would also make a great sugar scrub or hair mask, so feel free to make extra and use it later.
