RECIPES:
To sooth sore muscles: Add the following essential oils to 2 ounces of a carrier oil (sweet almond oil, grapeseed oil or a light sesame seed oil): 2 drops each of Pine, Benzoin, Eucalyptus, Frankincense, Peppermint and Rosemary.
To refresh yourself during flights and reydrate your skin (this was fabulous!): Add 2 drops rose essential oil, 1 drop neroli essential oil and 1 drop sandalwood essential oil to 1 oz. filtered water and put in a spray bottle.
Make sure you always keep your finished recipes in dark containers to preserve the properties of the essential oils and make sure when you buy your oils they are in dark glass bottles and are pure essential oils!
