No, direct application of pure essential oil onto clothing is strictly prohibited. It may lead to essential oil residue, staining, or fiber damage, especially for high-end fabrics like silk and wool. It must always be pre-diluted with laundry detergent or washing liquid.
The standard dilution ratio is approximately 1-2 drops of lavender essential oil per 10ml of laundry detergent. You can adjust this slightly based on your fragrance preference, but it is recommended not to exceed 3 drops per 10ml of detergent.
Yes, it is highly compatible and safe for all fabrics, including cotton, linen, silk, wool, and synthetic fibers. It is also non-irritating and leaves no residue, making it perfectly suitable for baby clothes and intimate apparel.
For industrial use, we recommend using 0.5%-1% of the total volume of the laundry detergent or washing liquid. A concentration of 0.8% is ideal for achieving a optimal balance between fragrance strength and antibacterial benefits.
Unused essential oil must be sealed and stored in a cool, dry, and dark location at a temperature range of 5-25℃. It is best to use the product as soon as possible after opening to prevent oxidation and keep the fragrance fresh.
While cold or warm water is perfectly acceptable for normal washing, we recommend keeping the water temperature at or below 40℃ (≤40℃) to prevent the lavender essential oil from evaporating prematurely during the wash cycle.
