Peppermint in my bathroom, in the bowl water, on the TP paper cardboard rolls....never without it!
I need some ideas for a good room spray for my office!
I love AromaEase as a spray air freshener!
Try in a 2 oz spray bottle, a pinch of epsom salts, 6 drops clary sage, 7 drops grapefruit, 4 drops geranium fill with distilled water.
Hello, how many drops YLEO need to make a 1 kg handmade soap? Thank u...
Hi Ji Lin, We recommend following the directions as listed on the label for usage instructions. Thanks for stopping by with your question!
Using it on a vacuum cleaner bag makes the house smell wonderful.
Can you post a specific recipe for bath fizzes and body scrub? Thanks!
You people are crazy to ingestion and use topically without dilution
Jill I am so happy you wrote that, I feel most people do not know how to use essential oil safely.
Jill you obviously don't know we have dietary labels for our oils that are made for ingesting because they are pure! FDA has approved our labeling!
You obviously don't know pure essential oils. Not all our oils are for ingestion but we have dietary lables approved by the FDA for ingesting.
Is there a quick reference guide/list of which oils are available in the 15ml size?
That's why they have a vitally.. for ppl like you ;-)
Hi Laurie, At this time, we do not have a comprehensive list of the oils available in the 15ml bottle. However each of our oils are listed in the Product Guide and online with the sizes available. Thanks for stopping by!
3 drops of peppermint on a cotton ball in a tiny zip lock type baggie (found at crafting stores), close. When having nausea and vomiting, open baggie & sniff several times.
Except you would not want to use plastic with ego's. Get a diffuse necklace...there are many different types on the market.
How many drops in a 5ml?
Hi Maru, Great question! There are approximately 85 drops (1 teaspoon) in a 5 ml bottle.
I make the best Swedish Meatballs ever now that I have YLEO! And I share the empty bottles with Blends for Friends in need with the roller attachment.
What oils do you use for them? Would you post your recipe please?
