Natural Lavender Body Spray Recipe
You are going to love this homemade body spray. It is so easy to make and the body mist is scented with just a few drops of essential oil so it is all natural. It is also easy to customize. You can substitute your favorite essential oils and add a few extra drops if you like a stronger scent when you make your own perfumes. To me, the best part is knowing exactly what is in my essential oil body spray and that they are natural ingredients.
DIY Body Spray Ingredients:
- 2-3 oz glass bottle
- 1/4 cup of distilled water
- 1 & 1/2 TBSP of witch hazel
- 10 drops of Young Living Lavender essential oil
- 6 drops of Orange Young Living essential oil
This lavender body spray recipe is chemical free and contains no artificial scents or colors. It’s all natural and safe to use on ladies of all ages. The witch hazel is good for your skin. The essential oils have a lot of beneficial uses as well. You will love the gentle scent of the lavender essential oil when combined with the touch of orange essential oil. Orange has a sweet uplifting scent that is useful in easing stress and anxiety. Lavender is know to be great for your skin and helping to prevent acne.
How To Make Body Spray:
Clear a spot on your kitchen counter and gather your ingredients.
Measure and pour all of your ingredients (distilled water, witch hazel, and essential oils) together in a glass bowl or large glass measuring cup. The measuring cup is ideal because it will have the pouring spout.
Mix well, using a whisk or fork.
Then use a funnel and pour this mixture into a small glass spray bottle. You can get the spray bottle at a local craft store or from Amazon. Alternatively, you can reuse an empty one you have on hand. Just be sure to wash it out thoroughly first.
Twist the spray top on and give it a good shake. You are ready to spray!
I like to spritz 2-3 pumps into the air and then close my eyes and walk through it. Or you can spray it directly onto your skin after you get out of the shower.
Essential oil sprays tend to have a light scent since there are no artificial fragrances. Feel free to add a few extra drops of oil to your mixture or to use and extra pump of the natural body spray.
Make sure to give the body spray perfume a gentle shake before each use.

These essential oil spray recipes are going to be fun to make! If one decides to use a blend of oils, is it splitting the 8-10 drops between the number of oils used OR is it 8-10 drops for each oil used?
Scarlet says
I would split the drops for a total or 16 drops. It really is your preference for the strength of the scent but start with that guideline and then if you like it stronger add a drop or two more of each. I hope you enjoy this easy DIY project for making your own scents!
