6 Best Uses For Essential Oil Dropper Bottles with DIY Recipes by Loving Essential Oils

Do you use dropper bottles for your aromatherapy oils? Dropper bottles can have many uses, even outside of the essential oil world. For the essential oil user, they can be very valuable. Learn more about how to use essential oil dropper bottles with DIY recipes included!

Dropper bottles have the ability to measure out drops more precise and easier than the standard oil bottle.

Have you ever been waiting for your oil to drop out of a standard oil bottle, then suddenly the drops come pouring out? It has happened to me on more than one occasion. With glass dropper bottles you control how fast or slow the drops come out.

How about that thick essential oil, like vetiver oil? A dropper bottle can be more effective using a glass dropper to add the needed drops to your DIY essential oil recipes.

Can I Use Dropper Bottles for Essential Oils?

Yes, dropper bottles can be used for essential oils and aromatherapy. They are best used when making essential oil blends and recipes. Use them with essential oils and blends that you will be actively using and working with.

It is not advised to store essential oils in dropper bottles long-term. Prolonged exposure to essential oils can possibly break down the rubber in the dropper. It is also best to keep essential oil blends that you make in dropper bottles in an upright position away from heat and light.

When working with essential oils, it is best to use colored glass bottles to protect your oils and prevent deteriorating from light.

Bottle color is especially important for storing essential oils, that is why bottles of essential oils for sale come in colored bottles, usually amber but occasionally blue too.

If you are making a DIY recipe that will be used fast, the color of the container may not be such a concern because the oil will not have time to deteriorate.

6 Best Essential Oil Dropper Bottle Uses With Recipes

Here are 6 ways you can use dropper bottles to make your essential oils really shine.

1. Homemade Massage Oil

Dropper bottles make using essential oils a lot simpler. You can pre-blend your carrier oils and essential oils into a dropper bottle for use during massages.

Then when you are ready to give a massage to yourself or someone else, use the prepared massage oil blend and place several drops directly on massage location or in the palm of hand first and then massage into area.

Here is an essential oil massage blend for leg cramps.

Leg Cramp Massage Oil

Massage on legs when cramping occurs to increase circulation and decrease discomfort.

  • 14 drops Peppermint essential oil
  • 10 drops Cypress essential oil
  • Jojoba Oil
  • 1 oz dropper bottle

Directions: Add drops of essential oils to 1 oz dropper bottle, fill the rest of bottle with jojoba oil. 4% dilution, use for short-term treatments only.

Leg Cramp Massage Oil Recipe with Essential Oils by Loving Essential Oils - Recipes by Jen Lane, Aromatherapist

2. Custom Essential Oil Blends

Have a favorite oil blend that you like to use? Create it in a dropper bottle so you will always have it on hand.

For example, I love to use frankincense, peppermint and lavender together for a variety of reason but especially when I have a headache.

Having it premade in a dropper bottle allows me to grab it when I fell one coming on. I can add a few drops to unscented lotion and apply it topically or add it to my diffuser, or even place a few drops in a warm bath with Epsom salt.

My Favorite Essential Oil Blend - Master Recipe

By adding equal parts of lavender, peppermint and frankincense essential oil (depending on size of batch you want). 1 oz bottle holds between 500-600 drops of oil (30 ml total). So if you want a full bottle you would use 2 teaspoons (10 ml) of each essential oil.

  • 2 teaspoons (10ml) Lavender essential oil
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml) Peppermint essential oil
  • 2 teaspoons (10 ml) Frankincense essential oil
  • 1 oz Dropper bottle

Directions: Add all ingredients to a dropper bottle. Place cap on and shake to blend together.

3. Homemade Eye and Face Serum

I love my roller bottles, but when it comes to applying oils to my face or around my eyes, they don't work as well.

It is easier to have the serum in a dropper bottle, place a few drops into palm and then gently apply to face. For eye serums, add a drop to finger and gently dab under eyes.

Anti-aging Eye Serum

To use this DIY eye serum, gently dab around eyes before bedtime.

  • 4 drops Lavender essential oil
  • 2 drops Frankincense essential oil
  • 4 drops Vitamin E oil
  • Rosehip Oil
  • 1 oz Dropper bottle

Directions: Add essential oils and vitamin oil to the bottle, fill the rest of bottle with rosehip oil. Place cap on and shake to blend together.

4. DIY Bath and Body Oil

Applying body oil after a shower is a wonderful way to keep skin soft and moist, especially your arms and legs. Try adding it to your skin care routine.

Homemade body oil is also a simple way to delicately scent your skin naturally, so you can skip the harsh perfumes. Here is an oil blend to try after your next shower.

Moisturizing Body Oil Recipe

To use this easy essential oil recipe, drop some homemade body oil into the palm of your hand and rub onto desired areas, focusing special attention to areas with dry skin.

Directions: Add essential oils and vitamin E oil to the bottle, then fill rest of the bottle with fractionated coconut oil. Place cap on and shake to blend together. I like fractionated coconut oil because it is quick drying so I can get dressed shortly after :)

5. DIY Nail Serum

Dropper bottles make applying nail serums to nails and cuticles so simple. Nails take a beating every day, here is a way to give them some TLC.

You can make a homemade nail serum by using a carrier oil plus a few drops of vitamin E oil and your preferred essential oil.

Strengthening Nail Serum Recipe

Add a few drops to a cotton ball and rub over nails and cuticles, allow to air dry.

  • 9 drops Lavender essential oil
  • 9 drops Frankincense essential oil
  • 5 drops Vitamin E oil
  • Rosehip oil
  • 1 oz dropper bottle

Directions: Add drops of essential oils and vitamin E oil to the bottle, then fill rest of bottle with rosehip oil. Place cap on and shake to blend together.

6. Hair, Beard and Scalp Treatments

Glass bottles with droppers are a great way to disperse oil blends for hair and beards oils as well as scalp treatments. Place a few drops in the palm of your hands and rub together, then distribute to desired area of hair or scalp.

Dandruff Relief Scalp Oil Recipe

Apply about 1 teaspoon to scalp prior to showering, let sit for 5 minutes then wash hair and scalp normally.

  • 8 drops Lavender essential oil
  • 4 drops Tea Tree essential oil
  • Jojoba Oil
  • 1 oz dropper bottle

Directions: Add drops of essential oils to the bottle, then fill rest of bottle with jojoba oil. Place cap on and shake to blend together.

FAQs Related to Essential Oil Dropper Bottles

What size dropper bottle should I choose for my essential oils?

When choosing a dropper bottle size, consider how often you will be using the essential oils and how much you typically use in each application. Smaller dropper bottles, like 5ml or 10ml, are great for travel or sampling, while larger sizes, like 30ml, are ideal for regular use at home.

Are all dropper bottles made from the same material?

No, dropper bottles can be made from different materials such as glass or plastic. Glass dropper bottles are preferred for essential oils as they do not interact with the oils and are more durable than plastic.

Can I reuse dropper bottles for different essential oils?

Yes, you can reuse dropper bottles for different essential oils after cleaning them thoroughly. Make sure to wash the dropper bottle with soap and water, then allow it to dry completely before adding a new essential oil to prevent any cross-contamination.

Can I customize my dropper bottle with labels or decorations?

Yes, you can customize your dropper bottle with labels or decorations to make it easier to identify the essential oils inside. Use waterproof labels or markers to prevent smudging. Decorating your dropper bottle can also add a personal touch and make it more visually appealing.
