How to Make Natural Essential Oil Acne Gel that Really Works for You!
Sometimes, despite your daily skin care routine, acne still makes an appearance.
That’s okay. You can make an essential oil acne gel an “essential” part of your skincare collection. You don’t have to use it every day—just when a spot pops up that needs some attention. (But the acne gel recipe in this post is gentle enough for everyday use, too.)
I want to share an essential oil acne gel recipe made in a base of aloe vera, which is so soothing and healing for skin. It’s also made with essential oils known to reduce inflammation and infection.
Cocoa butter nourishes tender skin so well, it’s perfect in a homemade, natural diaper rash butter! People tend to fall in love with cocoa butter. That’s because it’s an all-natural carrier butter that’s gentle and deeply nourishing, and it blends beautifully into homemade body butters and creams. And also because cocoa butter smells like chocolate! (That’s enough to make anyone fall in love a little!) […]
It’s so fun to clean greasy pots and pans . . . You can stand at your sink for hours, working your fingers to the bone and tiring your arm out as you scrub-scrub-scrub away. You can listen to hours of your favorite music as you get everything spic-and-span. You can listen to an entire audio book.

It’s not always easy to clean greasy pots and pans naturally. That’s why I’m excited to share today’s recipe with you! […]
Everybody likes things that smell good. But not everybody thinks the same things smell good. So what do you do when you want to inhale essential oils, but don’t want to use a diffuser that fills the room with their aroma? Make an essential oil inhaler! Just as its name suggests, an essential oil inhaler allows you to breathe in the essential oils . . . and nobody will smell them but you. You can make an Aromatheapy inhaler to have a personal, convenient way to keep the oils at your side, perfect for the office, a classroom, or any space where you want to “keep your oils to yourself.” […]
The next time you have a cold or the flu, Juniper essential oil wants you to give it a call. It will bring over some Aromatherapy blends to help clear your congestion, and it’ll draw you a nice warm bath. And I hope you like massages, because Juniper plans to give you a soothing muscle massage after your bath (just in case you weren’t already relaxed enough!) It will focus on those areas that feel sore and achy when you’re sick. (Juniper’s not sure why body aches sometimes appear when we have the flu or a cold . . . but it’s sure it can ease the pain!)
