Used extensively across the world for thousands of years, garlic essential oil is one of the most famous natural remedies.
Despite its well-documented benefits, garlic oil is often neglected in aromatherapy due to its overpowering scent and is not often used in diffusion.
Garlic Oil for Skin
However, applying the garlic oil topically (when very well diluted) can greatly benefit skin, hair, and the immune system. It can even be used in oil-pulling to relieve toothache.
