Potions Mixologist

I love making my own DIY skincare to cut down on toxins in my home. It is so simple to make lotions, body washes, and scrubs. And the best part, you can customize and scent them however you want! For my husband, I like to stick to woodsy and earthy aromas. He likes the way they smell and I love that he isn’t putting harmful ingredients full of synthetics on his body. Essential oils such as frankincense, sandalwood, and tea tree have wonderful benefits for the skin and have a great aroma for men. 🌱Frankincense- clears skin from skin imperfections and may reduce signs of aging 🌱Sandalwood- Soothes irritated skin and reduces acne, can brighten skin 🌱Tea tree- cleanses and purifies the skin, use as a spot treatment on pimples Women aren’t the only ones who should be pampered! 😉 • • • • • #natural #aromatherapy #doterra #selfcare #wellness #essentialoils #naturalliving #oilylife #yleo #holistic #vegan #greenbeauty #younglivingessentialoils #handmade #plantbased #naturalbeauty #healthylifestyle #doterralifestyle #allnatural #naturalproducts #healthyliving #doterraessentialoils #essentialoileducation #menshealth #skincare #explorepage #rollerblends #diffuserblends #diy #healthyaging (at San Diego, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBX0zQPofv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We will be wrapping up the first half of the month of our favorites list with Lemon.

Remove tough stickers in no time (and don’t worry about harsh chemicals!) I have even used it to remove paint from clothing and carpet. 😱 What about Lemon has blown your mind?
