Topical

For adult topical application, dilute Magnolia Essential Oil at 2-3% (10-15 drops per ounce of carrier oil). For children, reduce to 0.5-1% (2-6 drops per ounce). Use carrier oils like sweet almond, jojoba, or coconut. Focus on areas needing relaxation or soothing. Allow 20-30 minutes for absorption before covering with clothing.

Inhalation

For direct inhalation, place 1-2 drops on a tissue or cotton ball and breathe deeply. For steam inhalation, add 2-3 drops to a bowl of hot water and breathe in the steam for 5-10 minutes. Personal inhalers can also be prepared with a few drops for on-the-go use.
