I want to mix some of my own Essential Oils and Carrier Oils, but I dont know what size bottle to get. Iv found both clear bottles and dark brown ones on ebay (I guess the brown are better), but what size of bottle should I get? There are 10ml, 25ml bottles etc.

Does the stopper matter, or is it best to get a dripper thingy?

Thanks for your continueing assistance.

For size it just really depends on how much you want to make up in one go really. I would go for dark bottles, dark blue or brown would be best to help prevent light from spoiling the oils while you store them.

Definitely get the darker tinted ones, as ChloeDharma suggested, and I'd recommend getting ones with eyedroppers so you don't have to touch the bottle with your fingers/hand when you want to get out some oil. They're also tidier than pouring, and will be more likely to keep bacteria out of the bottle.
