Spread the love

Essential Oils can be so beneficial in the healing process, reduction of exposure to toxins, but also simply a beautiful smelling and uplifting alternative that supports health. Why not consider these tips and gift ideas for the essential oils enthusiasts in your life.

Essential What?

In some ways it might seem as confusing as trying to communicate with someone that speaks a different language, so let me just start by explaining:

  • essential oils come from plants, and, depending upon how they are processed, can be a plant-based, natural resource for health and healing
  • unlike synthetic drug counterparts, essential oils can be used effectively and without side effects
  • instead of just one purpose, essential oils often help in a variety of ways
  • essential oils have been scientifically proven effective and used for thousands of years
  • essential oils can be very powerful, so be mindful of warnings

So Many Ideas for Using Essential OilsA Few Tips

There is a wide selection of brands and tools, some good and some not so good. Also:

Some essential oils enthusiasts are Very Particular about the brand, so just in case you’re reading this as you consider gift ideas for others, the gift receiver’s brand preference (if any) might be worth getting first.

I personally have mostly used 3 brands that I considered to work well for my priorities and based on what I was going to use them for, including: medicinal, cleaners, soap making, home/car fresheners, perfumes and lotions, insect repellants, and more.

Essential oils can be diffused into the air, applied topically, and (dependent upon who you ask) sometimes taken internally.

Purity of an essential oil or essential oil blend affects its ability to achieve what you are using it for.

Different essential oils (just like medicinal herbs) can impact a person differently, but there are oftentimes a variety of choices you can choose from to achieve the same goal. Additionally, essential oils (like medicinal herbs) can be beneficial for many different needs. A very small example of this is:

    • Stress Relief – Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Vetiver, Bergamot, Orange
    • Digestive Relief – Peppermint, Roman Chamomile, Fennel, Ginger,
    • Pain Relief – Peppermint, Wintergreen, Lavender, Rosemary, Bergamot
    • Immunity – Helichrysum, Oregano, Tea Tree, Lemon
    • Inflammation – Lavender, Tea Tree, Turmeric, Lemon

Make Your Own EO PerfumeGift Ideas to Consider

  1. diffuser – there are different types of diffusers with a wide range on pricing and power (today I’m pulling up 108 pages when I do a search). While my #1 recommendation would be nebulizers all the way, ultrasonic diffusers can be good too
    • nebulizer – higher priced but more control and more powerful, even in a large room; diffuses straight essential oils
    • ultrasonic – lower priced but not as powerful, diffuses a mist of water and essential oils, preferred in a smaller space 
  2. storage/carrying cases – there’s a wide variety here. I have a nice carrying pouch for 16-5 ml bottles that zips up and fits nicely in my purse
  3. car diffuser – you will mostly find scent pad-styled air freshers here, but there are nebulizers and misters too
  4. jewelry diffuser – there are so many options and styles of diffusing jewelry at farmers markets, small businesses, and online. You can even see an example of the pendants that I purchased for the ladies in my family below
  5. essential oils – there are several essential oil brands available, but here are some that are of high purity and quality:

Also remember that most of the individual companies also offer their own diffusers, jewelry, cases, and more when available.

Travel and Jewelry with Essential Oils3 Points for Prioritizing

Purity is usually the #1 consideration for most enthusiasts, so always check the labels to see if the oil includes dilutants.

Additionally keep in mind that the person you are buying for might have a strong preference, particularly the essential oil brand.

And lastly, essential oils can be power tools for health, as noted in research, so select single oils or blends with regard to your preferred effect including relaxing, bacteria-fighting, hormone-balancing, and more.

There is so much going on in relation to essential oils and information and possibilities, this only scratches the surface.

Enjoy your search for the perfect gift for the essential oils enthusiasts in your life, and by the way…
