Lavender Oil has incredible therapeutic properties.
When used aromatically, Lavender Oil has been known to reduce feelings of anxiety, stress, and depression. Struggle with insomnia? Lavender Oil can help you with that too! Spritz a little in the shower or diffuse before bedtime to help your body naturally wind down and sink into a deep, relaxed sleep.
Lavender Oil is the perfect match for your beauty routine.
Did you know that Lavender Oil can be added to several of your beauty regimens to boost their effectiveness? Add a few drops to your mascara to naturally lengthen lashes or to your favorite facial moisturizer to bring the glow back to your skin and help reduce acne. You can even massage it into your scalp during a shower to restore hair health.
Lavender Oil is great for pain relief, especially tension headaches.
Many people swear by using Peppermint Oil for headaches and migraines. When applied topically, Peppermint Oil (blended with a carrier oil) gives a cooling effect and stimulates blood flow to the area and reduces inflammation. Adding just a couple drops of Lavender Oil to the Peppermint blend can produce a mild sedative effect, helping muscles and tension relax – which is what may have been causing the headache in the first place.

Life is stressful and hectic, so when you come home, you expect to relax and be rejuvenated. Essential oils can help you do that; and the best way to use them is with a diffuser. Diffusers disperse the oils into the air, permeating the room and providing with you their benefits continuously. They’re the best way to help you live a better, healthier life.
So, here are nine perfect reasons you should have an essential oil diffuser:
9 Undeniable Reasons to Have an Essential Oil Diffuser
1. Sleep
Sleep prepares you to tackle tomorrow, but you can’t do that if you don’t sleep well. So, run your diffuser throughout the night with essential oils such as lavender to help you fall and stay asleep. You’ll wake up feeling refreshed and ready for another day.
2. Freshen the Air
Essential oils are known for their potent, fresh aroma. Just choose the scent you want to fill the air. Diffusers are also healthier alternatives to name brand air fresheners, which fill your home with harmful chemicals. Instead, essential oils bring health benefits and provide long-lasting aromas. Two birds, one stone.
3. Stay Healthy
Keep your home healthy and happy by diffusing essential oils such as eucalyptus, peppermint, and citrus. These oils purify the air by eating up bacteria, protecting your home from illness, and boosting your immune system.
4. Safer than Candles
Candles can pose a fire hazard if left unattended. Prevent these types of disasters by using an essential oil diffuser instead. And besides being safer, essential oils don’t use chemicals like candles, leaving you with a healthier atmosphere.
5. Mood Enhancing
While essential oils and aromatherapy are known for their relaxing scents, there are also several oils that can be used to boost your mood. Oils like lavender and citrus oils can be diffused to energize a room and give it life, such as an office to help you work, or a weight room to get you ready for a big workout.
6. Mental Focus
If you want to be more productive, diffusing essential oils in the air can improve your cognitive function. In fact, using oils like eucalyptus and peppermint regularly can actually help heal causes of poor mental focus.
7. Prevent Snoring
Another reason to leave a diffuser on overnight is to help your significant other not wake you with their snoring. Eucalyptus oil clears passageways and improves breathing, which will prevent snoring and allow you to sleep better.
8. Allergy Relief
It seems that everyone has some kind of allergy these days. Allergies can cause watering eyes, scratchy throats, congestion, among other things. But diffusing essential oils such as eucalyptus and peppermint can relieve these symptoms with their potent aromas and ability to clear sinuses.
9. Relieves Stress
One of the greatest benefits of a diffuser is creating a stress-free home. Menthol and lavender are two of the best oils to help you relax and decompress after a long day. You can make any room your escape with these oils and a diffuser.

It’s that time of year. The weather is changing, the leaves are falling, and the flu is coming around again. With that comes several unpleasant symptoms and sick days. But this year, spend less time being sick and more time feeling great with Eucalyptus. It’s just as effective — if not more — as an over-the-counter medication and a healthier alternative for your liver.
How Eucalyptus Treats the Flu
You may recognize Eucalyptus oil from its potent, distinct aroma. This aroma is how Eucalyptus oil does the majority of its healing. As you breathe in Eucalyptus, it cleans your pathways and provides relief while supporting your immune system to take care of the virus at the source. The potency comes from its bactericides (a substance that can kill bacteria) within its fumes that directly attack flu bacteria. These bactericides allow Eucalyptus to get to the root of the virus and kill it quicker than most other treatments.
Eucalyptus is also a natural antibiotic and expectorant, which supports your body in expelling the virus. These characteristics make Eucalyptus especially effective against flu viruses such as H1N1.
How to Use Eucalyptus Oil
Eucalyptus oil can be used in several ways and many times during your daily activities:
- Shower: One such way is to spray Eucalyptus ShowerMist into the steam of your shower and breathe it in. Just one or two spritzes in your shower will be all it takes to take away congestion, coughing, and many other symptoms.
- Diffusion: Another way to use Eucalyptus oil is to use a diffuser. You can use a diffuser to fill a room with the effects of Eucalyptus all day long and provide yourself with around-the-clock symptom relief.
- Massage: Combine a few drops of Eucalyptus oil with a carrier oil such as almond oil. Massage the mixture onto your respiratory tract and feet to feel fast relief and supporting your immune system.
- Bowl of Hot Water: Finally, for strong, quick relief, heat up water and put it into a bowl. Add a few drops of Eucalyptus oil and, covering your head with a towel, place your head directly over the bowl and breathe in the aroma.
Use these tips as needed to fight off the flu fast and get back to living your life.

With the growing number of diagnoses and the pervasiveness of the disease in our culture, cancer often touches the lives of almost everyone directly or indirectly at some point in time. As cancer research has grown, a light has shown on the power of essential oils to deter or even defeat cancer. Whether from studies or the testimonies of several people on the healing they’ve experienced, it’s undoubted that essential oils could work for anyone with cancer.
Each essential oil brings different health benefits and cancer-fighting properties to the table. Take a look below at what each oil can do.
Essential Oils That Fight Cancer
Lavender Oil: Lavender is one of the most popular essential oils for its myriad benefits, but recent studies have also shown it to be advantageous to cancer patients.
Lavender can directly affect certain cancer cells, ranging from preventing their spread or killing them outright. It also improves immune system efficacy, which is severely depleted when a patient is undergoing chemotherapy. Lavender is also a pain reliever, allowing patients to take fewer medications that often cause adverse side effects.
Citrus Oil: Citrus, especially when it includes orange or lemon oil, has been known to halt the growth of cancer cells, especially in that of cervical cancers. Orange oil possesses d-limonene, a phytochemical largely known for its anticancer effects. Citrus oil also provides relief from pain and anxiety and several of the side effects commonly associated with chemotherapy.
Peppermint Oil: Peppermint oil has lots of research and studies behind it supporting its potency against cancer. Like citrus oils, it also has limonene in it, making it effective against many cancers. Most notably, peppermint has been known to kill leukemia cancer cells. Menthol has also been widely studied and found to kill prostate cancer cells.
Eucalyptus Oil: Eucalyptus oil is full of phytochemicals that are known to help treat cancer, particularly alpha-pinene and beta-pinene. These two phytochemicals have been under wide study and have proven to provide anticancer effects. Eucalyptus also has been proven to be very toxic to lymphoma cancer cells.
Prevention is the Best Cancer Treatment
Since there are several behaviors that can increase cancer risk, prevention is the best medicine. Essential oils eliminate free radicals, which can cause damage to cells, and are full of antioxidants. Oxidation can also cause damaging mutations in cells and lead to tumors. Essential oils can also decrease other possible cancer risks.
If you want to start preventing and decreasing your risk of cancer, then check out our line of several Eucalyptus-based ShowerMists. Each of the essential oils listed above is infused in our Eucalyptus ShowerMists, allowing you to experience the potency of two strong essential oils.
