Essential oils are oils that are obtained from parts of plants such as the leaves, stems, flowers, bark, or roots most frequently through steam distillation.  Each essential oil offers not only the aroma of that plant but also the medicinal value of that plant.  There are many potential applications and benefits of essential oils as well as many ways to use essential oils such as topical application or aromatherapy.  Today, I will share several free essential oil recipes that help you with many things in your life from DIY beauty products to DIY natural remedies to DIY home recipes.  Enjoy!

Free Essential Oil Recipes That Will Blow Your Mind

Who knew that you could use essential oils in so many ways? If you have only been diffusing essential oils, you have been missing out!  You can make so many of your own products with just a few essential oils and a few extra ingredients like carrier oils.  I think you will love these free essential oil recipes and I can’t wait to hear your thoughts when you give them a try.

While essential oils are thought to have many medicinal qualities and purposes, none of the recipes or essential oil blends I mention should be used as treatment for a medical condition.  This post is not medical advise and you should always consult with your physician about any health concerns you may have.

Where To Get Essential Oils:

I just recently became a Simply Earth Ambassador.  It just made sense to me. I love essential oils because of their healing powers and I have been a big believer in them for over 20 years.  I suggest Simply Earth essential oils because they are good quality at a reasonable price. Additionally, it is nice to know that Simply Earth shares 13% of their profits to organizations who helps end human trafficking. That sure is a cause I am happy to support!

You can trust Simply Earth: No artificial fragrance. No fillers. Sourced from small, ethical farms.  Check them out through my affiliate link: simplyearth.com
