1. Peppermint (Mentha piperita): Perfect for clearing the sinuses, improving concentration, easing headaches, cleaning cuts, and fighting bacteria and viruses. It is calming, cooling, and nicer than ice.

1. Frankincense (Boswellia carterii): This fortifying tonic is Nature’s sacred essence of confidence and strength. Frankincense is a fantastic restorer of wrinkles, wounds, scars, oral infections, and inflammations. A few drops in a bath, a salt pipe, or an aroma diffuser raises your vibration and boosts your immune in any season. Apply a drop under the nose or anoint the brow to inspire creative reason and contemplate universal cohesion. This august aroma consecrates your being with a whiff of the eternal.

1. Neroli (Citrus aurantium): The euphoric aroma is filled with breezes from a dreamy citrus grove on sunny day. Apply to your hair and anoint your pillow for sweet slumbers and a refreshed spirit. Simultaneously calming and uplifting, this sweet orange blossom oil relieves anxiety, eases digestion, revives skin cells, and fades stretch marks. Each drop is dollop of joy!

1. Rose Otto (Rosa damascene): It is the queen of any beauty regime and the majesty of essential oil medicine. Perfectly precious rose otto oil is angelically aromatic, verily vulnerary, and effectively analgesic. Once revered as the blood of Venus, it tonifies the tapestry of skin and is a wondrous women’s tonic. Each drop of this essence is the distillation of sixty roses. Effervescence your spirit with this rose-champagne.

1. Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood (Santalum paniculatum): This dreamy-creamy island offering is outstandingly sensual. Apply neat to your armpits and watch lovers swoon in sultry delight. It is a fabulous moisturizer, meditation aid, mood enhancer, energy booster, and body deodorant. Our distinctive Royal Hawaiian Sandalwood is a resplendent essence that anoints the raiment of your skin!

1. Immortelle (Helichrysum italicum): Immortelle is incredibly rare and precious, and it is with good reason that we sell out of this oil so often! Immortelle is my go-to oil for pain (combined with peppermint), soft-tissue injuries, wounds, and skincare. Its celestial aroma immediately connects you with elemental energy.

1. Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum): This is one potent aphrodisiac. Traditionally is has been esteemed for its ability to alleviate stress and fatigue, remedy urinary tract infections, and ease muscle spasms. The aroma is ethereally electrifying and a drop in a dash of honey is divine.

1. Chamomile (Anthemis nobilis): This sweet, ethereal essence is like a ripe apple on a summer breeze. A remedied response to the hectic buzz of modern life, Roman chamomile is endlessly calming, soothing, and reassuring to body, mind and spirit. Anoint the solar plexus to sedate body and mind, or add to a bath, diffuser or salt pipe to create a deep sense of serenity and calm. A single drop of Roman chamomile in a steaming mug of honey and hot water makes for the sweetest of dreams.

1. Lavender (Lavender angustifolia): Legendary for its capacity to calm the mind and soothe the spirit, lavender also expertly soothes minor burns, headaches, insect bites, skin issues, and joint pain. I love that this oil can be applied diluted and neat for an uplifting treat. Let it lull your spirit in its languid hammock.

1. Thyme Linalool (Thyme linalool): This gentlest type of thyme is packed with plant-potency. Its mild manner replenishes the skin and can be applied neat to banish blemishes. This sacred cure-all has been used since antiquity to relieve digestive problems and respiratory infections as well as gastritis, tonsillitis, bronchitis…just about anything ending with “itis”! Sooth your senses with its peaceful, herbaceous perfume.

1. Roses over Geranium (Rosa damascena and Pelargonium graveolens): This very unique co-distillation is a compelling combination for beauty and balance that surpasses the sum of its botanical singularity. Roses over Geranium is routinely used to repair wounds and blisters, reduce stress, quiet sore throats, balance the immune system, and alleviate anxiety. The fragrance is fresh, fun, and fortifying.

1. Lemon (Citrus limon): Lovely, uplifting lemon oil revitalizes skin, spirit, and space. This zesty essence is valued for improving the immune system, detoxifing the nervous system, cultivating concentration, and invigorating the senses. Squeeze a drop in water, honey, smoothies, and sweet or savory cuisine. It is a juicy accessory to any dish, cleaning potion, or jolly bath.
