Essential Oils: The natural way to keep it clean

Back again I see, well welcome back! Today is just a quickie, based on last week’s post about fragrances. I talked a little about essential oils and how we use them in our products to make them smell so fantastic! Well this week I thought I’d give a quick rundown of some of my favourite oils, what kind of therapeutic uses they have and highlight why we chose to use that particular oil.

Lemongrass: A delicious and slightly exotic smell, I’ve always enjoyed lemongrass and am dying to make something where I can pair it with ginger for a real uplifting punch of aroma! It’s a great oil for congested oily skin and can help with fungal and acne issues. It has an invigorating aroma while maintain balance and not overstimulating the person. We use this in our laundry liquid to provide an invigorating punch to your daily washing cycle.

Peppermint: Peppermint is one of those classic fresh smells, I am yet to meet a person that says that don’t like the smell of fresh peppermint. An amazing scent, peppermint is great at clearing airways, sinus and decongesting chests. Great at cooling not just the body but emotions it is great for calming those who are a little too fired up and clearing the minds of those who need to chill out. We use this in our orange and peppermint bench spray because it not only smells amazing and clean but has some positive antiseptic properties.
