Do you have any recipes for making essential oils? I'm looking specifically for a recipe for peppermint essential oil.

OK - What did I do wrong? Melissa, please advise. I made the essential oil version. Weighed out 1 oz of carrier oil and 1 oz of Castille soap. Added my oils and it stirred up into a creamy mixture just like your video. I mixed it into the cup of magnesium flakes. All looked great til I dumped it into the hot running water. The flakes melted away leaving clumps of the oil/soap mixture that looked like butter. I was sure in time it would melt in, so I got in the tub. It never did melt. It coated me and the tub in a nice thick layer of oil. LOL I absorbed some which was good but the tub not so much. I'm gonna be cleaning a loooonnnng time today.
