3 DIY dōTERRA Essential Oil Recipes

doTerra Essential Oils Review
As a mom with young children, I try often to be cognizant of the products I purchase and use within my home. There are many household products we can create ourselves without using harmful store-bought agents that are full of chemicals and preservatives. Below are 3 natural essential oil recipes I created by using dōTERRA essential oils. The 3 recipes are great natural alternatives for: lavender bath salts, reed diffuser oil, and no streak window cleaner.
 

Essential Oil Recipe – How to make natural Lavender Bath Salts

Mother’s and fathers sometimes need a few quiet moments to themselves to think. Bath-time is one of the best times parents can do this alone. Lavender bath salts give your bath water a nice comforting and relaxing scent.
 
Medical News Today reports that “the essential oil of lavender may be useful for treating anxietyinsomniadepression, and restlessness.” Using these bath salts after a long day will help soothe and relax your body before bedtime.

2. Essential Oil Recipe – How to make natural reed diffuser oil solution

 
Some scientists have reported that common household air fresheners contain Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), which can be harmful to a person’s health. VOCs have different names but here are a few to be aware of: toluene, styrene, xylenes and trichloroethylene. The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry reports that stored air fresheners can be a toxic product found in many homes.  So to prevent these chemicals from being released in your home, you can make your own air fresheners naturally.

2. Essential Oil Recipe – How to make a natural window cleaner

Natural cleaning products are easy to make. This no-steak window cleaner is very simple to make and great for home use.  Of course you can use plain vinegar or you can use the mixture below. 

  • Lemon oil is good for cleaning, it’s a disinfectant, and is pleasant.
  • Peppermint oil is great for helping to get rid of unpleasant odors.
