Do you know when you using Essential Oils and have cats around, please use that in caution! After I attended a workshop about safety of EO, and surprise that EO is actually toxic to Cats! If diffusing, be sure your cat stay in another room. Also after you used hand lotion with EO, wait for 20 minutes to touch your cats!
Because: Cats' liver and kidneys are lack the enzymes to effectively process and push out the Eos toxins. But dogs are ok, but still, use that in caution!

Do you know there is something called: "Nasal Inhaler" in Aromatherapy? Just add your favourite essential oils blend, then place it right below your nose and slowly inhale. Slowly is the key, count 1,2,3,4,5 as you inhale. Then hold it for another count of 5, then slowly exhale!! Repeat every 2 hours if needed.
Each one of my family member got one and have their favourite remedy fit for their own needs. And my favourite blend is my own remedy "Strong as Thieve" + Peppermint!!

When Jessica Alba talks beauty, I'm inclined to listen. Not only does the actress and business mogul run the Honest Company, a line of eco-friendly home and beauty products, she's also a total knockout on the street or the red carpet. That all aside, let it be known: Jessica Alba does not wear

Did you know that Cinnamon has been used since 4,000 B.C.? Ancient Egyptians used it as perfume in their sacred embalming process.

Uses of Cinnamon Leaf Oil

Cinnamon leaf oil can be used as an additive in soaps and a flavoring to seasonings. When used in aromatherapy – diffused, applied topically (I recommend diluting with a mild essential oil or mixing in your favorite cream, lotion, or shampoo), or added to your bath water – it can have health-promoting effects.

Here are some ways to use cinnamon leaf oil for your health and around your home.

1. Use it as a disinfectant.
With its strong germicidal properties, cinnamon leaf oil works as a non-toxic natural disinfectant. Use it to clean your toilets, refrigerator, kitchen counters and other surfaces, door k***s, microwave, and sneakers. You can even use it to clean and disinfect your chopping boards.

2. Make a facial scrub.
Mix it with cinnamon sugar, orange juice, and olive oil to create a rejuvenating scrub that has antiseptic properties to kill facial bacteria effectively.

3. Gargle as a mouthwash.
Add a drop or two to a glass of purified water, and gargle with it. For people with dentures, simply make a solution of water, hydrogen peroxide, and cinnamon leaf oil, and soak your dentures in it.

4. Add it to your foot soak.
Get rid of nasty fungal infections by mixing a drop of cinnamon leaf oil in a bucket of warm water, and then soak your feet in it. This works great for athletes and people who wear closed shoes for most of the day.

5. As an insect repellent.
Did you know that the scent of cinnamon leaf oil can deter pesky household insects, such as black ants, mosquitoes, roaches, and flies? Studies found that it may even be more effective at repelling mosquitoes than the toxic chemical DEET. Simply spray or diffuse the oil around your home. You can also spray it over your mattresses and sheets to get rid of bed bugs.

6. Add it to your shampoo.
Add a drop of cinnamon leaf oil to your regular non-chemical shampoo. This will help keep your hair healthy and, in children, help kill stubborn head lice.

Lemon Oil and Beauty

Many men and women use skin care products that contain lemon oil, as this ingredient helps to detoxify and rejuvenate the skin.

In addition, lemon oil is commonly used to reduce pimples and eliminate oil from oily skin.

On the other hand, to add gloss to one's hair, lemon oil can be used to remove dandruff and boost the hair's healthy appearance.

Lemon oil is extremely useful as a pre-shaving product. It helps soften the hair on the face, and protect the skin from the razor. It therefore reduces the risk of ingrowing hairs, or razor burn.

Lastly, for men and women seeking to lose a few pounds, lemon oil may even be helpful in reducing one's body weight

How to Use Lemon Oil

Lemon essential oil can be used in a variety of manners, although this oil is most commonly used in a vaporizer, in the bath, or as an ingredient in aromatherapy products.

When using with a vaporizer, simply add 4 to 8 drops of essential lemon oil, or use the 4 to 8 drops with water on a burner.

For a bath, 3 to 5 drops of lemon essential oil can be mixed in with warm water, while 2 drops of oil with 1 teaspoon of a carrier oil can be combined for the application of essential lemon oil as a shampoo or body cleanser.

In aromatherapy products, lemon oil is frequently blended with other citrus oils.
