When I thought about some of my current favorite things, the very first thing that came to my mind was essential oils. I have become slightly obsessed (yes, they really can be life-changing!). I have gotten totally hooked on Edens Garden Essential Oils (which are available on Amazon and on Edensgarden.com). I love that they are 100% pure therapeutic grade essential oils and that they are so affordable!
I use a ton of essential oils every day. I use tea tree oil for tons of skin issues (like acne and dandruff, plus I mix it with coconut oil and lavender oil for healing cuts and dry skin). I also use lavender oil in my face lotion and a bunch of other things. I use Head Ease in my diffuser to clear up headaches (it’s amazing! It’s a blend of basil, chamomile, frankincense, lavender, peppermint, rosemary, sweet marjoram, and wintergreen) and Breathe Easier to clear up my sinuses at night (a blend of peppermint, lemon, eucalyptus, and rosemary)….and then my favorite may just be Thieves, which is a well-loved blend of cinnamon, cloves, eucalyptus, rosemary, and lemon to boost immunity.
What I’m giving away:
- I am letting YOU chose a set of 6 essential oils from Edens Garden. I’m happy to give you suggestions of fabulous oils to choose from! Note: the oils pictured are just some of the oils I own. You’ll be able to choose your favorites.
- I will also be adding a carrier oil – an essential oils ESSENTIAL! (I use almond oil)
- Plus a diffuser.
Enter on the giveaway tools form below and good luck! I can’t wait to send these essential oils to one of you! After the giveaway ends on 12/8 at midnight, a winner will be chosen at random and notified via email. Happy holidays!
