When diluted with a carrier oil (such as jojoba, sweet almond, or avocado oil), a drop or two of lemon essential oil can be applied to the skin or added to baths.
Pure lemon essential oil shouldn't be applied directly to the skin or used in larger amounts than recommended (the oil is absorbed through the skin and using too much can be harmful).
Lemon essential oil also can be inhaled after sprinkling a drop of the oil onto a cloth or tissue (or by using an aromatherapy diffuser or vaporizer). *
