How to Make Herbal Infused Oils at Home (the Easy Way)

Herbal oils bridge the gap between body care and plant medicine. They’re simple to make and deeply satisfying.

Pick your carrier oil — Sweet Almond, Jojoba, or Olive Oil all absorb well. Next, select a dried herb: Calendula for skin comfort, Lavender for relaxation, Rosemary for scalp care.

Fill a clean jar halfway with dried herb (roughly 1 oz) and top with oil, leaving space at the rim. Stir slowly to release bubbles. Let it infuse in a warm, dark spot for 4–6 weeks, shaking occasionally.

Strain through cheesecloth and store in dark glass bottles. Every ounce of oil from Lhasa Karnak is hand-poured for purity, so you’re starting with quality.

Use it for massage, baths, or homemade salves — and you’ll feel a little Berkeley craft in every drop.
