would you rather have Gold or Frankincense?

Frankincense for me, please!

we're just barely scratching the surface today, but I'm gonna share a bit of background info on our pal Frank and my favorite ways to use this luxurious oil!

I used to see Fall as a great excuse to run out and buy some new candles! The stronger the scent, the better, in my books! If I could get them on sale, I was over the moon!

I’ve learned a lot since then, especially about the effects of candles and the ingredient “fragrance” on my body.

I’ve allllsoooo done the math and found out I can make my home smell delicious for way cheaper - while SUPPORTING my body

Lavender was my first favorite oil and the cause of my first “wow moment” when I realized I was sleeping better.

We’re only scratching the surface in this video, but I’ll be sharing some of my favorite ways to use this calming, floral oil!

I used to be a VERY unintentional consumer. I bought whatever shampoo/cleaner/face cleansers/air fresheners/lotions/laundry detergent was cheapest, and that was that.

I looked at people who read ingredients and did research and cared what they put on their skin and though they were nuts.

So what changed?

I gained a LOT of knowledge (some of it was pretty tough to hear) and I decided I wanted more for my body and my household!

Friend, we can’t control everything we come into contact with out in the world. But, we can control what we use in our home. I’m sharing WHY I started caring and what I do now.

It's time to chat about the oil of love, Ylang Ylang! As a dedicated Peace & Calming superfan, I knew I would quickly become obsessed with Ylang Ylang and her beautiful, floral aroma.

Whether you plan to diffuse it, add it to your DIY lube, rub it on your neck as perfume, or sniff it when you’re angry, I hope you get your hands on an extra bottle this month!

It wasn’t until I actually started reading ingredients that I realized the dish soap, toothpaste, lotions, and pretty much everything else I was using contained some pretty harmful ingredients.

I felt exhausted all the time, yet unable to sleep. I felt moody and irritable like I was riding some weird emotional roller coaster. And I still had no idea how much my facewash and my shampoo were contributing to all this!!

Here are just a few of my fave ways to make home feel cozy during the holidays!

I’m ALWAYS grateful to have oils around, but this season just seems to open up a few extra possibilities! I’m sharing some of my favourite ways today, and I hope you’ll tell me yours in the comments!

I thought I’d walk you through a typical day of oiling and show you just a few of the ways! I reach for my oils about a dozen times a day for all different reasons. So though there is a lot in here, this video is just scratching the surface of how versatile these oils are!
