Essential Oils homemade gifts!

Who doesn't love a good sugar scrub to help your skin look smooth and fresh during this winter month? I love the way my skin feels after using the scrub; soft and moisturized! However, I hate paying the price for the scrubs! I would never buy it for full price and then when they went on sale they never had my favorite scent (lavender and vanilla). Who wants to spend $9.00 and then feel like you smell bad...I don't care how great my skin might feel, if I smell bad it's not worth it! Thankfully, Pintrest came into my life and I found a new recipe for sugar scrubs and I can now make my own for a fraction on the cost!. Also, I now know what's in my scrub and what's going on my skin (therefore also going into my body since whatever is on your skin will seep into your body!) Not only is my skin feeling and looking great, but also I am helping improving my health with using therapeutic grade oils to fragrance my scrubs! Here is the recipe I use for the sugar scrub:

Sugar Scrub:
3 cups sugar
1 cup + 2tbs organic olive oil
3-5 drops Young Living 100% Therapeutic Grade Essential Oils-I use whatever oils I am fancying at the moment. Here are some ideas for the mode you might be trying to give with the scrubs
Relxation: Lavender or Peace &Calming
Energizing: Grapefruit or Peppermint
Soothing Muscles: PanAway
Spiritual Awareness: Frankincense
    (click HERE to learn more about these oils or to buy some!)

In a glass bowl, mix the sugar and olive oil together. Add your essential oils (1 drop at a time until you get the desired aroma). Place sugar scrub in a glass jar and enjoy! Super simple and super affective! These make great gifts as well! For a dear friend, I made a spa basket for her birthday, which included this sugar scrub, bath salts, bubble bath (store bought), and a gel eye mask! And if you really want to get fancy with everything, you can use a die cutter (I used my cricut or you can buy pre-cut vinyl letters stickers), made labels with scrap book paper, and mod podged them to the jars!

I also found this bath salt recipe on Pintrest (seriously I ADORE this website!) 

 Bath Salts
3 cups coarse sea salt
1 1/2 cups epsom salt
1/2 cup baking soda
3-7 dropsYoung Living Therapeutic Grade essential Oils

Mix salts and baking soda in a glass bowl. Add you essential oil, 1 drop at a time, until you reach desired scent! Crazy easy!! This does make a large batch, so if you are not planing on dividing it among multiple bottles, I would recommend cutting it in half! Hope you enjoy your mini spa!

What Oils should I use?

Bone or Tendon
Wintergreen: Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) has a sweet, minty scent. The oil is distilled from the small evergreen herb's leaves. The refreshing, clean taste of wintergreen has made it a favorite in flavoring numerous products. Wintergreen contains the same active ingredient (methyl salicylate) as birch and is beneficial in massage for soothing head tension and muscles after exercising

PanAway:  PanAway® was created by Gary Young following a severe injury to the ligaments in his leg. Containing wintergreen essential oil, which is often used for massage, PanAway is soothing to the skin while providing comforting warmth to muscles after exercise.

Relieve It: Relieve It™ is a deeply relaxing, warming blend of therapeutic-grade essential oils that feels soothing and comforting to muscles and joints following exercise

Muscles 
 Majoram:  Marjoram (Origanum majorana) has a woody, spicy aroma. A calming oil, it has a warming effect on both mind and body and soothes tense muscles after exercise. It is beneficial for occasional simple nervous tension* and may also be used for cooking.

Aroma Sieze: Aroma Siez™ is a relaxing blend that is excellent for massaging away life's little discomforts. Well suited for use after exercise or at the end of a trying day, it also provides soothing comfort for the head, neck, and tired feet.

Deep Relief Roll On:  Deep Relief Roll-On (patents pending) is a proprietary blend of oils specially formulated to relieve muscle soreness and tension. Peppermint, Wintergreen, Copal, and Palo Santo essential oils as well as others play an integral part of healing in this blend. Deep Relief is offered in the portable convenience of a roll-on application.

PanAway: PanAway® was created by Gary Young following a severe injury to the ligaments in his leg. Containing wintergreen essential oil, which is often used for massage, PanAway is soothing to the skin while providing comforting warmth to muscles after exercise.

Ligament
Lemongrass: Lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus) has a light, fresh, citrus aroma with earthy undertones. Refreshing, rejuvenating, stimulating, and balancing, it inspires and improves mental clarity. Lemongrass also supports the circulatory system* and has a score of 17,765 on the antioxidant ORAC scale. Research was published in the Phytotherapy Research Journal regarding the powerful properties of topically applied lemongrass.

Cartilage
Sandalwood: Sandalwood (Santalum album) has a rich, sweet, warm, and woody aroma that is sensual and romantic. Used traditionally as incense in religious ceremonies and for meditation, it is uplifting and relaxing. It is valued in skin care for its moisturizing and normalizing properties

Bone Spurs
 R C: R.C.™ contains powerful therapeutic-grade essential oils that are invigorating when applied, especially to the chest and throat area. R.C. is a wonderful blend to diffuse during winter.

Start Living with Young Living Everyday Oils

The most powerful, versatile, effective and affordable “Natural Health Kit” you will ever find-Young Living Everyday Oils

Is there a “natural” product kit in your home or office that will give you relief from literally hundreds of everyday health problems, quickly, safely and without any synthetic chemicals?

Or are you the kind of person that reaches for

• aspirin for a headache?
• antacid for indigestion?
• anti-inflammatory cream for sore muscles?
• antibiotic cream for a cut?
• lotion for a bug bite?
• pills to get to sleep at night?
• chocolate to relieve stress or a bad mood?
• bleach to get rid of mold?
• first aid cream to heal a burn?
• herbs or drugs to boost your immune system?
• alcohol or overeating to relax?

Yes,I know!  I used to be the same way!  When I had a headache, I’d run into the medicine cabinet, get a tylenol, and would pop it into my mouth. I did that all of my life!  Years of toxins flooding my body and I never even know how much I was hurting rather than helping my body.  Sure, it masked the symptoms, but what was it doing to my stomach, my liver, my kidneys, and so forth? 

I am so thankful someone cared enough to share with me that there was an alternative: an “all natural health kit” of everyday oils that could be used from morning to night.   What if you had one little kit–small enough to carry in a purse or briefcase–with a collection of everyday oils that you could use, one or two drops at a time, to manage all those every day kind of problems and many, many more? And without the use of any synthetic chemicals, pharmaceuticals, or drugs of any kind?

What if you found an American company that’s been providing just this kind of relief to hundreds of thousands of people for over 15 years? And what if it turned out that by using this one, all natural health kit you didn’t need to rely on other lotions, creams, pills, and guesswork so that you ended up both feeling better and saving money?

Young Living Essential Oils is exactly that kind of company, and their “Everyday Oils” kit is exactly that kind of product.

The Everyday Oils Kit is a perfect way to start using and benefiting from our therapeutic-grade essential oils. Once you experience these essential oils and their many daily uses,you’ll wonder how you ever survived without your Everyday Oils!

9 essential oils come in this Everyday Oils kit: frankincense,lavender,lemon,peppermint,peace and calming,purification,pan-away,thieves,and valor.

PLUS:  You will receive 2 FREE additional oils, Lavender and Peppermint.  PLUS, you will receive a FREE $40 off mail in coupon for a diffuser to diffuse the oils in your work, home, office, school, or even in your hotel room!
