Take Me Away

When I am looking to mix up my diffuser blends, I often reach for Jade Lemon and Spearmint. Jade Lemon has a strong citrusy scent that reminds me of being somewhere tropical. Combined with Lavender, this blend is invigorating and fresh.

Island Dream

Is there anything better than an island vacation? Ylang Ylang essential oil is the base for many perfumes, and when diffused it has a sweet, floral aroma. It blends perfectly with Lavender, and the Tangerine essential oil adds a slight citrus note.

Sleepy Time

Lavender on its own is so calming and is always a good night time choice. When I am looking to unwind and drift off to dreamland, I reach for this blend. The woodsy aroma of the Cedarwood and the earthiness of the Vetiver combine to relax the body and mind. Sweet dreams!
