Why Choose Garlic Oil?

Garlic oil fights bacteria, fungus, and inflammation. It’s great for helping your hair grow, tackling skin problems, and boosting your immune system!

Gather Your Supplies

- 4-5 garlic cloves - ½ cup of olive oil (or coconut oil) - A small glass jar or bottle - A strainer or cheesecloth

Crush Your Garlic

Peel and crush 4-5 cloves of garlic. You can use a garlic press, or just mash them.

Warm the Oil

In a pan, pour in ½ cup of your preferred oil. Heat it gently on low so the garlic doesn’t burn.

Mix in the Garlic

Add the crushed garlic to the warm oil, letting it sit on low heat for 10-15 minutes.

Strain the Oil

When the oil has cooled a little, strain out the garlic pieces using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. Store your garlic oil in a glass jar or bottle.

Using Garlic Oil

- Hair: Massage into scalp, leave for 30 mins, wash off—boosts growth, reduces dandruff. - Skin: Apply on acne for antibacterial benefits. - Health: Rub on chest for a soothing effect when unwell.

Tips & Safety

- Always test a small area of your skin first to check for irritation. - Keep your garlic oil in a cool, dark spot. - If you have sensitive skin or scalp, always dilute it first.
