Instructions :
Step 1: Add rosemary to a heat-safe pan or small pot
Fresh rosemary gives a stronger infusion, but dried works well too.
Step 2: Pour olive oil over the rosemary
Ensure the herbs are completely submerged.
Step 3: Heat gently on low
Warm for 10–20 minutes without boiling. Low heat helps extract rosemary’s healing oils without damaging the olive oil.
Step 4: Cool and strain
Once cooled, remove the rosemary and pour the infused oil into a glass jar or bottle.
Step 5: Store properly
Keep the oil in a cool, dark place for up to two months. For immediate use, you may warm a small spoonful and apply it directly to the skin.
