How To Use Essential Oils

I apply 2 drops of Breathe on my neck and shoulders when I’m feeling tension and anxiety... My friend likes to smell it from the bottle too and keeps it in her car at all times. Also, 5-12 drops of Breathe (depending on how strong you like it) works so good in a diffuser!

“Essential oils are great tools to better your health. Being properly informed on its usage, quantity, and exposure time is key.”

Did You Know?

Essential oils are concentrated aromatic, volatile substances that are extracted from plants.

Top 3 Uses

  1. Aromatically

    When using a diffuser…

    • Be sure filtered water is filled to the red mark line in diffuser

    • Add 5-12 drops of essential oil at a time (depending on preference, always start slow)

  2. Topically

    When applying on the skin…

    • For children, elderly, on the face, and pregnancy- 5-6 drops with 1 oz. carrier oil

    • For healthy adults, daily use- 10-12 drops with 1 oz. carrier oil

    • For pain- 15-25 drops with 1 oz. carrier oil

    I use 1-2 drops of Frankincense oil everyday on my face after my shower with Tate’s Miracle Conditioner... Best $6 bottle spent. I love it so much! Again, I really believe that a little bit goes a long way!

  3. Internally

    When taken orally…

    • Not every essential oil is meant to be taken orally (actually most aren’t) so it’s best to ask a professional before taking one by the mouth and the amount to take

General Rules

  • Always keep essential oils away from eyes

  • Keep them away from light and heat

  • Store in refrigerator (ideal) or a dark, cool place

  • Go “low and slow” when starting out with your EO’s

Safety Concerns

  • When using a diffuser, too much and for too long can be a bad and lead to headaches, nausea, and dizziness

  • 30 minutes is recommended (then an hour off)

  • Be aware that some people are sensitive to oils!

My EO’s and diffuser at home!

I have the 10-hour Lumo Diffuser from DoTERRA and I HIGHLY recommend it! It comes with 7 different color options. It’s so pretty to set to any color when I turn it on (from dark blue to magenta pink to rainbow).
