First and foremost: If you use lavender oil, please be sure to use one that is "food grade", which is manufactured for human consumption. Anything else is not safe to ingest. You don't want to poison yourself or anyone else.

If you want to use lavender oil, I would start with a 1-2 drops of the lavender oil mixed in with the olive oil. Then add, drop by drop, more until you have the level of lavender that you like. Lavender oil can be very concentrated from brand to brand, which is why you will want to add a little at a time. Too much lavender will be like eating perfume. It's not pleasant.

Good luck!
