Soothe tension with this simple yet effective DIY Head Soothing Essential Oil Roll-On!
Essential oils, known for their therapeutic properties, can be a game-changer for those seeking on-the-go soothing support. This Head Soothing Essential Oil Roll-On is a remedy that you can carry with you wherever you go.
What’s in This Roll-On?
Fractionated Coconut Oil
A vital component of this recipe, Fractionated Coconut Oil, acts as a carrier oil, diluting essential oils to make them safe for topical application. Fractionated coconut oil is odorless, does not stain the skin, and stays in its liquid form unlike regular coconut oil. It’s lightweight, absorbs easily into the skin, and enhances the essential oil’s absorption, ensuring you receive the full therapeutic benefits without irritation.
Head Soothing Essential Oil Blend
The core of our roll-on’s effectiveness lies in its meticulously chosen blend of essential oils, each selected for its unique soothing properties. Head Soothing Essential Oil Blend consists of Ho Wood, Frankincense, and Lavender Essential Oils—a trio renowned for alleviating head and neck discomfort commonly associated with stress and tension headaches.
Things to Remember When Using This Recipe
Always dilute an essential oil when using it on the skin. This essential oil recipe is unlikely to cause skin irritation when diluted properly. If the oil has oxidized (been left with the cap off for long periods of time,) it is more likely to cause skin irritation. Check out this dilution chart for diluting this essential oil properly.
Some essential oil recipes are not generally safe to use if you are pregnant. Consult your doctor prior to use.
