The power of scent is strong; it can draw us back to our favourite memories. That\u2019s why citrus oil can remind us of a relaxing day at the beach, or why conifer scents make you think of a hike with your besties. But\u00a0scents can do so much more than create nostalgia!<\/strong>\u00a0Experience the versatility of essential oils<\/a>:<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

1. Scrub away the sticky!<\/span>\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n

You know the inconvenient price tag residue left on mirrors, plates, and cups? Apply 1\u20132 drops of\u00a0Lemon essential oil<\/a> on a cloth and wipe away the gunk. Let the versatility of Lemon save you from a sticky situation!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Let your locks shine!<\/span><\/h4>\n

Shiny hair, do care. Warm a few drops of\u00a0Cedarwood essential oil<\/a>\u00a0in your hand and massage your scalp for healthier-looking hair.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Pamper your pretty self.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Create a spa-like atmosphere with the calming aroma of\u00a0Lavender essential oil<\/a>. Mix 1 cup of Epsom salt and 4 drops of Lavender oil in your hot bath, then lie back and relax.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Invigorate your home cleaning.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Add a few drops of\u00a0Lemon essential oil<\/a>\u00a0to your naturally derived floor, window, and surface cleaning solution for a fresh, clean aroma. Do not use Lemon oil on granite or stone, as it may etch the surface.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

5. Skin for the win!\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n

Incorporate a drop of\u00a0Rose essential oil<\/a>\u00a0to your evening moisturizer to support healthy-looking skin. Try using other essential oils but avoid applying citrus oil\u00a0before spending time in the sun due to photosensitivity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. Scrub-a-dub in the tub.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Wash away your work day with a homemade body scrub. All you need is coconut oil, Epsom salt, and\u00a0Lavender essential oil<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Catch some zzz\u2019s.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Mornings after a good night\u2019s rest are the best! Diffuse<\/a> essential oils like\u00a0Lavender<\/a>,\u00a0Vetiver<\/a>,\u00a0Cedarwood<\/a>,\u00a0German Chamomile<\/a>, and\u00a0White Angelica<\/a>\u00a0to help create a calm, peaceful sleep.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

8. Spice up your food! <\/span><\/h4>\n

Add 2-3 drops of Grapefruit Vitality<\/a> essential oil\u00a0to desserts, marinades salad dressings or water can electrify your taste buds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

9. Breathe in, breathe out.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Relax, we\u2019ve got\u00a0R.C.essential oil\u00a0blend<\/a>! Diffuse R.C. to support the feeling of normal, clear breathing and to promote restful sleep in a stuffy environment.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

10. Unwind in your shower.<\/span><\/h4>\n

When\u00a0Peppermint<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Eucalyptus Radiata<\/a> essential oils\u00a0are infused in a hot wash cloth, you can enjoy a calm, invigorating scent. You may even be too relaxed to let off steam of your own.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

11. Be blemish-free!<\/span><\/h4>\n

Tea Tree<\/a> essential oil reduces the appearance of blemishes while maintaining healthy skin and nails when applied appropriately.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

12. Healthy Lifestyle<\/span><\/h4>\n

Looking for a fresh feeling during your work day? Add a few drops of\u00a0Frankincense Vitality<\/a> essential oil\u00a0to your water, juice or NingXia Red<\/a> for a sweet, woodsy flavour and to support well-being.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

13. Elevate dishes with extra flavouring!<\/span><\/h4>\n

Oregano Vitality<\/a> essential oil\u00a0is a delicious culinary essential oil. Add 1-2 drops of\u00a0Oregano Vitality essential oil\u00a0over your favourite Italian dish for its spicy, savory flavour.<\/p>\n
