essential oil round-up for May

Essential oils are natural oils found in plants. They have been used for thousands of years to heal or treat disease and illness. I've been using essential oils for six months and have been amazed many times at how well they work!

Here are the oils I purchased in May:

KidScents toothpaste: I am constantly looking for great products for Rooney that are all-natural. This toothpaste fits the bill and uses essential oils, including Thieves, which has been known to heal cavities, to clean and protect teeth. Roo is excited about any toothpaste, and she loved the taste of this one, too.

Melaleuca: This is commonly known as Tea Tree Oil. It is great for healing cuts, wounds and skin infections, as well as general immune system support.

Gentle Baby: This is a blend of oils that is great for pregnant women and newborn babies (I am not pregnant nor do I have a newborn, but essential oils never expire so I just wanted to have it on hand). You can use it during labor and also to prevent or remove stretch marks. For babies, it can help calm a fussy baby or be used for diaper rash.

Lemon: We put a drop or two of this in our water to help us detox, but Lemon can do anything from house cleaning to reducing fevers. It can be used on varicose veins, skin callouses such as corns or warts, washing fruits and vegetables, congestion, lowering blood pressure, arthritis, and muscular aches and pains. So many uses!

En-R-Gee: This oil is great for alertness and can also increase your energy in a natural way. I'll take both, please!
