5 Essential Oil Tips to Feel and Look Your Best

1.) Focus on essential oils that correspond to your age

As we age our bodies go through massive changes in hormone levels and we develop different needs. By focusing on specific oils like Lavender (reduces stress & anxiety), Patchouli (boosts dopamine levels) and Eucalyptus (relaxes blood flow & increases circulation) you can help combat certain effects of aging.

2.) Replace harmful chemical-laden perfumes with essential oil blends

Did you know that fragrance recipes are considered trade secrets so manufacturers are not required to disclose fragrance chemicals in the list of ingredients?

For example, diethyl phthalate (prounced tha-late), or DEP, is widely used in cosmetic fragrances to make the scent linger. DEP is listed as a Priority and Toxic Pollutant under the U.S. Clean Water Act, based on evidence that it can be toxic to wildlife and the environment.

Many of these pollutants speed up the aging process and can cause numerous health issues.

3.) Increase the longevity of your oils by using diffuser jewelry

If you are wearing your oils topically, you may have noticed that they do not last very long. This is because of the perspiration and oils from your skin will break down and dilute the essential oils.

By simply putting your oils into diffuser jewelry you will increase the longevity of your oils, which means you can use less, enjoy your scents for a longer amount of time and save money doing it.

It's a beautiful and functional way to enjoy your favorite oils all day long.

4.) Combine your oils with lava or other stones to enhance and strengthen their benefits

Did you know that lava has been used for thousands of years to calm your emotions and help reduce anxiety and fear? It is heralded within the yoga community for its use in grounding & stabilizing the root chakra.

And even if you don’t believe in meditation, yoga or the healing properties of stones, lava is 100% natural, prettier than felt or cotton and will last a lifetime.

When used in conjunction with your essential oils, lava can increase how long your oils last and add additional health benefits.

5.) Only choose 100% organic based oils and blends

The quality of the oils you choose has a huge impact on their effectiveness, potency and the amount of benefits you will get from your oils. Read labels carefully and choose only the best, organic oils.
