Are there any Moms on here that use essential oils? I'm a bit of an addict, and I'd like to network with anyone on here who also uses them.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

I don't make my own, so far I've only ordered from Young Living, but there are a few other companies who have a truly pure product. I'm slowly building my stash but I'm already pretty amazed, especially with melaleuca (tea tree oil), lavender, and peppermint. PM me if you want to swap oily stories! I also have an oil group I'm a part of (btw, I don't sell oils...).

I use them all the time. Artificial scents give me a headache and make me nauseous. I can no longer wear any perfumes or colognes or use air fresheners, or many scented candles. So I make my own blend of essential oils to wear as perfume and will use them in an oil burner to make my home smell nice.

Just getting started this year with them. I use Young Living essential oils. Really know nothing about them, so am learning as I go along. My nutritionist uses them, so she's been giving me pointers and hints when I need help. Am actually very happy I found them, as we don't use pharma in our house. I have to make another purchase; I'm slowly building up my stash.

Lavender and geranium oil at bedtime. Sage and cedar to promote calmness without sleepiness. Cinnamon and bergamot to energize. Eucalyptus in cold season. That's it, I think. I'm pretty basic.

I use them all the time! I use them in oil burners for home fragrance, put them in carrier oil, such as grape seed, and use them for personal fragrance. I also make my own shampoo and hair moisturizer using essential oil. Some of them are really good moisturizers!

Have you ever made your own? I saw directions on pinterest, but have yet to try it.
