Lemon Essential Oil

Let’s chat about lemon for a minute. This is such an underrated oil. It’s used in so many ways & is super beneficial. Did you know it takes approximately 75 lemons to make a 15ml bottle of Lemon Essential Oil? That’s crazy! Click on each of the images below for more info on this oil & how to use it.

This one is a must read. Click on the image above to read all about lemon.

Lemon is uplifting, reduces stress & is great for memory & mental clarity. I love to diffuse lemon when I’m working. Lemon & peppermint is my go-to diffuser blend on busy days.

Lemon is also a great disinfectant, degreaser & natural goo-gone. I add a drop of lemon to greasy dishes & to get any sticky residue off old jars/bottles. And come one, why clean with something that’s got harmful fumes when you can literally use something that is uplifting & reduces stress (see above)? It will also remove those tiny plastic hair ties that we all despise. I also have a spray bottle with water & lemon EO to use as a room spray, spray on counters & in trash cans.

Skincare. I know you’d never think it, but lemon is great for our skin. It’s a natural astringent & is cleansing. But be careful, it can cause photosensitivity too. So just avoid the sun after using. It’s also great for hair & nail health.

Internally. Yes, there are some oils that you can use in foods & drinks. Never take essential oils straight from the bottle! But you can add a few drops to some sugar cookies, icing, cake, etc, etc. The recipes are endless. I also like to add 1 drop (start with 1 & add another if you desire) to a large bottle of water. Just make sure you shake it before you drink as the oils float.

After writing this & looking around, I noticed I have a bottle of lemon EO in every room of my house. It’s a must!

Non-Toxic Toothpaste

Have you ever read the ingredients on a tube of toothpaste? It’s quite disturbing actually. Why would it say call poison control if swallowed? I mean it literally goes in our mouth 🤦🏻‍♀️
Luckily, I’ve found a great alternative!! 🤗
This is one of my all time favorite ditch & switches I’ve done. And I ALWAYS have a backup in stock.
Below is a comparison between the different toothpastes available so you can find which one works best for you. My favorite is the whitening 😉✌🏼


ECO-FRIENDLY TOOTHBRUSH

While we’re here, let’s chat about your toothbrush. I hate plastic & I try to minimize the plastic that we have in our home, although, it is inevitable. But this small switch can make a huge difference. I watched this video years ago & decided I would never buy a plastic toothpaste ever again. We’ve been using bamboo toothbrushes for years & I love it. They feel the same (except not plastic), I get 10+ at a time so I always have backup & I can toss them in the compost bin when I’m done. Although sometimes I’m too lazy and chuck it anyway. But hey it’s still better than plastic! But my question is, if it’s cheaper, easier, better for the environment, etc, etc. why are we still using plastic??!! Know better, do better.

Bamboo Toothbrushes: https://a.co/d/fCyh2vZ This is just one of the brands I’ve ordered. I am not dedicated to one brand… yet
