What are you thankful for this season?
Too often, life gets busy and we forget to take a moment to reflect and be thankful. Negative emotions easily distract us and take over our thoughts in an instant.
There’s no better time to practice gratitude than NOW, and if it’s not so easy for you to hit the pause button, here’s an essential oil roll-on recipe to assist you. Simply Earth’s Forever Thankful Roll-On is infused with essential oils that cultivate feelings of positivity and thankfulness. Find out more about this roll-on recipe below.
What I Love About This Roll-On
I am always extra busy during the holidays as I’m sure you are, too. I use this essential oil roll-on to practice gratitude when I feel a little too overwhelmed. I love how handy and portable it is — I can use it in the car, at work, or anytime I’m out and about. It makes me feel good anytime, anywhere!
What’s in This Forever Thankful Roll-On
Winter Spice Essential Oil Blend
Winter Spice Essential Oil Blend captivates the aroma of Christmas in a bottle, and who doesn’t love Christmas?! Infused with Tangerine, Fir Needle, and Balsam Fir Essential Oils, this blend provides the fresh smell of evergreen trees and citrus which is rejuvenating and mind-clearing.
Candy Cane Essential Oil Blend
Spearmint, Frankincense, Orange, and Lemon Essential Oils make up our Candy Cane Essential Oil Blend. Like the name suggests, it smells exactly like a candy cane. The sweet, minty aroma of this blend is invigorating and blends well with the other oils in this recipe.
Lime Essential Oil
Lime Essential Oil’s fresh, citrusy, scent is like a sweet candy. It is very uplifting and energizing — just the ingredient you need when you’re feeling down and tired.
Please note that Lime is a phototoxic oil. This means it can cause skin to be extremely sensitive sunlight. In the amounts used in this recipe, Lime Essential Oil is unlikely to have phototoxic effects. However, use caution before using this recipe and spending time in direct sunlight.
Fractionated Coconut Oil
It’s important to dilute essential oils properly with a carrier oil. We used Fractionated Coconut Oil in this recipe because of its odorless nature, which means it does not affect the recipe’s original aroma.
Roll-on Bottle
To properly store and use this recipe, use a handy, high-quality, and durable essential oil roll-on bottle from Simply Earth.
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 been oxidized (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.
If you are pregnant, consult your doctor prior to use.
This essential oil recipe is safe to use with kids aged 10+.
