How do I use eyelids at half-mast in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Neroli 2 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.

What can I use instead of lavender?

Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

When is the best time to use eyelids at half-mast?

Run the diffuser for 20–30 minutes before bed with the door closed, then switch it off or set a timer when you get into bed.

Eyelids at half-mast · Lavender, Neroli blend

When your eyelids are already heavy, keep it simple: lavender carries the main part with its familiar purple-herb scent, and neroli adds a sweet, elegant, very smooth white-floral note. The two blend quickly, so the scent evens out after just a few minutes. It suits small and medium bedrooms, especially on nights you get home late. If it feels a bit sweet, switch the ratio to 4 drops of lavender and 1 drop of neroli for a cleaner take.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); neroli (white-floral, honeyed and clear) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
