Premium Starter Kit Recipes

Now that you have your Essential Oils Premium Starter Kit (PSK) in your hands, it’s time to put it to great use.  In addition to using the oils on their own for your personal wellness goals, you can combine the oils and mix in other ingredients to make natural products to meet your needs as well.  Here you will find many recipes you can make using just the oils in your PSK.

The amount of essential oil in these recipes is pretty conservative to meet the sensitive needs of brand-new oilers.  As your body gets comfortable with essential oils, you may increase the number of drops of essential oil to create the strength that best meets your needs.

A couple of safety tips to keep in mind specific to these recipes:

1.      If you get oils into your eyes, flush with a carrier oil like fractionated coconut oil, jojoba oil, grapeseed oil, or olive oil. Do NOT flush with water as it will drive the oils into your eye quickly and increase the burning sensation.

2.    Lemon and Citrus Fresh are definitely photosensitive oils and should not be put on the skin that will be exposed to direct sunlight or UV rays as it will increase absorption of UV rays and may cause redness or sunburns. Be sure to apply to areas that will be covered.  If you do apply to an exposed area, wait at least 12 hours before direct sun or UV ray exposure.

Now, let’s have a little fun!!
