Essential Oil Routines
Essential Oils when added to our personal and home care routines can yield amazing results. Oils can help reduce chemical, emotional, and physical stress from our lives and can help remove toxins from our homes! By placing oils in the area that we use them we have a better chance of being consistent with our healthy routines. An example of this would be to place oils such as lemon, grapefruit or On Guard that we add to our water in the kitchen, possibly in the fridge or next to our cups.

Oil Safety
Don’t use essential oils in your eyes, in your ears or in your nose. Start with small amounts as one drop is an adult dose. If an essential oil feels uncomfortable, apply carrier oil as this will disperse the oil and not make it feel as intense. Water will drive the oil in deeper. Citrus oils can increase sun sensitivity; allow at least 12 hours between application of the oil and exposing skin to the sun. Don’t use essential oils with plastic bottles for drinking or storage. If you accidentally get oils in your eyes, close your eyes and add a carrier oil to your eyelids. Rub in the carrier oil until your eyes feel better and then wipe it all away with a cloth.
Diffusing Oils
When adding oils to a diffuser start with 1-3 drops. Turn it on and run it for a bit and then determine if you need to add more drops depending on how strong it smells. doTERRA Essential Oils are potent and a little goes a long way!
Carrier Oils
Essential oils and carrier oils are made from plants. Essential oils can be potent and often need a carrier oil to dilute them and minimize skin sensitivity. There are many carrier oils available to choose from such as Coconut oil (solid or fractionated), Jojoba oil, Argan oil, olive oil and more.
When choosing an oil there are a few things to consider:
-Odor: Some carriers have a distinct odor. It may alter the aroma when added to an essential oil.
-Absorption: Different carrier oils may absorb better in you skin than others.
-Skin Type: You may find that some oils feel better than others on your skin, some may irritate your skin.
-Shelf Life: Each carrier oil will have a different amount of time that it is able to be stored before going bad.
