I have a question is rosehip oil base oil or aromatherapy oil. Do we need to add base oil to Rosehip oil to dilute it.

It depends on which oil you're using. I thinkrosehip oil is fine full strength. Other oils that are typically used as carrier oils are fine full strength. Jojoba, apricot kernel, and sweet almond are often used as carrier oils. Carrier oils are used to dilute stronger oils that you wouldn't use full strength.

Smile Help with sand and camellia oil ?

I'm going to start using sand as a body exfoliator, i know this will possibly be good enough (good reviews) does anyone have any suggestions to what i could add to it for a bonus or should i just use plain sand? thanks

also, i wanna start using camomile oil for a daily moisturizer but i'm trying to keep my tan and im wondering if it'll bleach my skin, or make my complexion more fair? (i really don't want that) all suggestions welcome, thanks

I don't know about the making your skin fairer, but if you do us chammomile oil (which is v good for sensitive skin btw) make sure you use a carrier oil like sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil or wheatgerm oil (you can get any of these from Holland and Barrett) because often pure essential oils are too strong to put on skin undiluted and can irritate.
