There are so many to choose from.... What's a person to do ?
Just check them all out,learn about what they can do and
choose ones that interest you and use them as instructed.
I want to say right from the beginning...Essential oils are concentrated and very powerful.
Use them correctly,....We do NOT suggest ingesting them. Because they are so concentrated
always dilute with a good carrier oil per instructions.
These are just a couple E.O.'s that you can use and are some really nice ones at that. Always
use caution when using concentrated essential oils.
Essential oils are such a wonderful-wonderful gift from
Mother Nature that I believe we all need to learn about and make use of.
They are wonderful in a diffuser,in natural household cleaners,in bath and
skin care products,body scents and much more....
