Ingredients
- ½ cup (about 120 ml) plain, unscented baby oil
- 1 tablespoon whole cloves (or about 15–20 cloves)
- 1 small clean glass jar or bottle with a tight lid
Instructions
- Pour the baby oil into the clean glass jar.
- Add the whole cloves to the oil.
- Close the jar tightly and shake gently to mix.
- Place the jar in a cool, dark place for at least 3–7 days to let the cloves infuse into the oil. (Shake it once a day to help the infusion.)
- After infusion, strain the oil through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to remove the cloves.
- Store the clove-infused baby oil in a clean, dark bottle.
How to use:
- Apply a small amount to your skin and gently massage.
- Always do a patch test first to ensure no irritation.
This creates a naturally aromatic oil. People commonly use clove-infused oils for things like soothing tired muscles, keeping skin soft, or as a fragrant massage oil — but remember to keep it away from eyes, mouth, and broken skin, and not to use it on babies or very young children without medical advice.
