Out of interest what ratio of oil to water did they advise?
Aren't people who have been poor generally quite careful not to waste their luxuries? If I had spunked £££ on, or been gifted fancy essential oils, I would certainly use them sparingly.
Those diffusers and things are awful. There's lots of information stating they should be used sparingly as they can cause breathing problems if not done correctly.
Wish she would just leave things alone.
I used to burn scented candles bur read the horror stories and now I only use soy candles and I only use them sparingly.

I think it depends on the scent/oils you’ve chosen and strength you want, but we made 30ml bottles and used maybe 8/9 drops? Doing it under the instructions of someone who knew what they were doing made a huge difference though, as it didn’t come out as a milky oily mess (like Jack’s, or TBF, my previous efforts).
Also 
at seeing she has Neroli in her essential sleepy slop mix - I wouldn’t dare buy this as it’s so beautiful but so expensive and I’d fear wasting it.
I’m really not a very knowledgeable aroma-Frau but am astonished by all the ways she finds to appall me.

The poor postman was probably coughing and choking with tears running down his face considering the cacophony of smells that must emanate from her letter box. There's slop simmering in the bedroom slow cooker, rancid puddings steaming for hours, landlady's eucalyptus in the bathroom, a citrus and black pepper spray, a floral and herbal spray, Penhaligon's, tea-soaked prunes, eggs, fish, fermenting vinegar and god knows what else #prayerforthepostie
Lively spray - completed it mate! 
She‘s liked this tweet, I wonder why? Maybe this years Express festive column will be to thank Wills & Kate-mate?

Well Jo Malone must be shitting herself.
”I LIKE THE MOST EXPENSIVE!! I’M SPECIAL”
Well if she does get on the new year honours then it will raise her profile and the tax paying or lack of it will be exposed so I’m here for it.Lively spray - completed it mate!

Ah you beat me to it!
Worm Moon sounds like the Easter follow up to sticky crappy pudding that all the kids are waiting for.
All those who have stolen her ideas or taken her thunder have been recipients of awards, but our Jackie Girl has an OFM and honoury degree…
Oh Dads an MBE don’t ya know?
Jackie is still waiting for her annoitment…
A reply to the comment about ‘NO!’ on the lid of the squash bottle. Yeah, that’s great. A rubber band as a tactile warning as well as the writing. Why not just not put the hideous concoction in a drinks bottle in the first place? Or at least not store it next to other drinkables? You can imagine a chef’s knife, stored in a drawer with softly soft soft gloves, and tips to ‘wrap the blade in fabric’ and write ‘OUCHIE SHARP!’ on the blade, rather than just putting it back in the knife rack.
