​SHOWER STEAM DISCS
  • 1 cup baking soda

  3. Pour this concoction into foil lined muffin liners in your muffin tin.
  4. Let this set for 18 hours, or, for more immediate results, bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. I’ve found that baking these discs results in liners that are much easier to remove.
  5. Once they’ve completely cooled, remove the liners and add 4-5 drops of your choice of essential oils.

Sprays

Instructions
Sprays are super easy to make, and a great way to share oils without using a whole bunch. Because of the antimicrobial properties of most essential oils, the sprays help to cleanse, heal, purify... etc. Shake well before use, and spray on affected area, or spray within a room. 
Because I'm not a huge fan of the smell of vinegar or witch hazel, I often will use just distilled water for sprays. However, vinegar and witch hazel are great to use with room sprays to help purify. When I formulate a spray for my body, I tend to add a little bit of oil (vitamin E, grapeseed or almond oil) to help it "stick" and to increase the viscosity.

The best part about these all natural body spray recipes is that the possibilities for your scent are endless. This is your chance to be creative and create a signature smell. Or, consider some of the benefits of certain essential oils and create a body spray recipe that suits your personal needs.
Body spray recipe #1: Energizing
  • 15 drops of Grapefruit
  • 5 drops of Lavender
This is my favorite scent during the summer, although I still like it during winter. It’s so happy. Grapefruit oil is emotionally uplifting. Lavender is soothing and relaxing.
Body spray recipe #2: Comforting
  • 10 drops of Cinnamon Bark
  • 15 drops of Orange
This is my favorite scent for the colder months. It’s a subtle, romantic smell that leaves you feeling super cozy. Cinnamon leaf  is warming and considered to have aphrodisiac properties. Orange is uplifting.
​Body spray recipe #3: Brain Power
  • 5 drops of Rosemary (helps with memory)
  • 10 drops of Peppermint
 (helps with headaches, jet lag, nausea)
  • 10 drops of Patchouli (helps with relaxation and concentration)
This isn’t so much a “smell how pretty I am” spray (not that is smells awful), but this spray is awesome because it really helps your brain.  This is perfect to use before a test, while studying, or if you feel super foggy from too many sleepless baby nights.
