Natrogix Bliss Top 9 Essential Oils Set with FREE E-book!!

So I started using essential oil about 2 years ago. I was reluctant at first. I thought people were just over exaggerating when they'd go on about how well they work for health & wellness purposes. One of my best friends gave me a bottle of Lavender oil, and I was hooked! That's why I was super excited for the opportunity to tell y'all about this Essential Oil GIFT SET!!! (Which I did receive for a discount, but I truly love the amazing benefits offered by essential oils!!!)

The Natrogix Bliss Top 9 Essential Oils Gift Set (Which you can get here) comes with the top 9 oils used by essential oil lovers.

The oils include:

• Tea Tree Oil: Used as a lice repellent. Also works well for on the spot treatment of pimples, fever blisters, warts, etc. (I use this in a spray for my daughters' hair as a preventative, and have used it for those random painful pimples that pop up out of the blue!)
• Frankincense: This oil can be used as an anti-depressant and works very well at reducing anxiety and stress. It also has antibiotic properties and can help in relieving things like congestion. My husband and I sometimes use this in our diffuser at night to help with sleep!
• Lemongrass: This is personally the first time I've ever had this one in my collection of oils! From what I've read though, the benefits are to my liking! Benefits include helping with the relief of muscle aches, anti-fungal properties, and helping to ward off insects. It can also help to reduce fever and kill bacteria.
• Eucalyptus: This is another first for my collection. My aunt has told me great things about it! So has my best friend that got me hooked on oils in the first place. It works as an expectorant to help fight the cold & flu. It can be used for a myriad of respiratory issues, and can be used for treatment of small wounds, among other things.
• Peppermint: This one is one of my favorites just because of the smell alone!! It can also help sooth stomach aches & nausea. Peppermint oil is also another lice repellent! It can also help sooth muscle aches and other pains caused from long term conditions.
• Rosemary: This is one of my favorites to use in a sleep blend at night (I like to blend Rosemary, Lavender, and Patchouli) which makes sense because one of the benefits is that it reduces cortisol levels. It's also used for hair growth, memory improvement, and can be used for different detoxifying purposes to help different organs in the body.
• Sweet Orange: I love love LOVE the scent of this, and it has such an uplifting effect!! It does help as a mood booster, which I love! It's also used as a natural antibacterial, pain reducer, acne fighter, and many other things.
• Lemon: This one can be used as a natural cleanser, can help digestion, help with weight loss, be used for cough relief, and many other things. This is another one my aunt and friend are adamant on using in their diffusers whenever they have cold or allergy issues! 
• Lavender: This one is my favorite because it smells pretty, and it's so calming!! I diffuse this in the room when my kids are home because it helps to calm their ADD. I also use it as one of my "must" oils in my sleep blend at night. Lavender oil can also be used to help relieve headaches, improve eczema & psoriasis, and can help with healing small burns and wounds.

So as you can see, the Natrogix Bliss gift set comes with all of the best oils you can find if you're just starting your collection. It's also great even if you're NOT new to essential oils!! The gift set also comes with a small booklet that has a few recipes for homemade oils blends, as well as a link to a free e-book that has 200 recipe blends! There's also a link in the booklet that includes a discount code for the Natrogix Bliss Totem diffuser.

So if you love essential oils, you know this set is something worth getting!! If you know someone who's just starting out with oils, this would be the perfect gift to get for them! 😊

New York Biology Frankincense Essential Oil

So today, I'm giving you all a double-dose in my series on New York Biology's Essential Oils (you can catch my previous post here). For those just joining in, this is a sponsored series, meaning that I was sent these oil for free in exchange for my reviews. This does not change that all thoughts and opinions in this post are my own! That being said, let's talk FRANKINCENSE!

New York Biology's Frankincense oil is the Boswellia Serrata kind, coming straight from India. It's scent has a soft earthy tone to it. The earthy aroma makes it pleasant, and not overbearing, which I love! NYB's Frankincense oil can be purchased on Amazon.

Frankincense has many medicinal properties. It's even been suggested in some studies that it can help fight certain cancer cells that have become resistant to chemotherapy treatments.

So what are some of the other medicinal properties? Well, take a look at the list below.

• Antidepressant
• Reduces anxiety and stress
• Helps to treat insomnia (my husband and I actually use this, blended with lavender, in our diffuser at night)
• Helps to relieve congestion and other respiratory issues
• Has antibiotic properties that can help with conditions like urinary tract infections

Granted, the list above is only a FEW of the many benefits that come from Frankincense oil. There are plenty more not listed! The fact that Frankincense oil has so many medicinal uses is exactly why it's one of the most sought-after oils on the market. It's definitely a staple in my own medicine cabinet.

As a reminder, if you're just joining this series, you can check out some of New York Biology's other oils below:

• Tea Tree
• Sandalwood
• Lavender
• Bergamot

Tuesday, I'll be back with my review & thoughts on NYB's Peppermint Essential Oil, so stay tuned! 

New York Biology Bergamot Essential Oil

Continuing with the series I've been working on for New York Biology's Essential Oil collection, THIS post will be focusing on Bergamot oil.

Bergamot is an oil that has a sweet and uplifting citrus-y scent. I'd never actually tried Bergamot before, as I tend to stay away from strong citrus smells, however, the aroma isn't actually that bad! It's noticeable in a pleasant way, but isn't overwhelming.

Being as I'd never been adventurous enough to try Bergamot oil before receiving this bottle, I did some research to find out what sort of benefits it hold.

Some of the benefits are as follows:

• Works well as an antidepressant
• Has uplifting properties that also help to reduce anxiety and stress
• Can be used to help treat insomnia (I always LOVE oils that help with that!)
• Helps to relieve congestion and other respiratory issues
• Has antibiotic properties
• Because of the antibiotic properties, it can be used for things like urinary tract infections. 

There are a host of other benefits too, of course, which is why I'm honestly kicking myself for not introducing Bergamot to my oil collection sooner!

One thing that should be noted is that most Bergamot oils contain an ingredient called bergaptene, which becomes poisonous if exposed to sunlight, and causes photo-sensitivity. New York Biology's Bergamot oil (which you can find on Amazon) doesn't have this ingredient, which makes it even safer to use.

I received this oil free in exchange for my honest review, and I'm so glad that I did! If you're just joining this series, and curious about some of the other oils I've discussed so far, you can check out the list below!

• Tea Tree
• Sandalwood
• Lavender

The next oil that I'll be discussing in this series is Frankincense, so stay tuned!

New York Biology Sandalwood Essential Oil

The other day, I left a review on New York Biology's Tea Tree oil (which you can find here). Today I'll be reviewing NYB's Sandalwood oil.

This particular Sandalwood oil is the Santalum Almbum, which is the purest you can find. It originates from India.

My husband and I use this in our diffuser most of the time. The scent of this specific Sandalwood oil (which you can find on Amazon) is so potent, that you literally only need one drop of oil (it's much too strong if you use more than that).





Topical Uses for Sandalwood Oil:

• Astringent
• Reduce inflammation for warts, pimples, etc.
• Can be used as an expectorant
• Helps decrease blood pressure

Aromatherapy Benefits of Sandalwood Oil:

• Relaxation
• Mental Clarity/Focus
• Helps reduce depression & anxiety
• Helps to treat insomnia
• Reduces stress
• Natural aphrodisiac

There are SO many more uses and benefits for Sandalwood oil that I wish I had time to list them all! New York Biology's oils are genuinely some of the purest that are on the market. If you're not using essential oils in your household, I highly recommend using them. You'll wonder why you didn't start using them sooner! Stay tuned. I'm actually working on a series of reviews for New York Biology's essential oils (I'm super excited about this!!), and my next one will be for their Lavender oil.

***This is a sponsored post (as is the rest of the series). I received this product for free in exchange for my review. All opinions are absolutely 100% my own!***

My Review of #NewYorkBiology Tea Tree Oil

So, essential oils are something that our family has started using within the past year. I love that they have medicinal purposes, and that they come from nature. Tea tree oil has definitely been a go-to oil for me (I have 3 daughters, and it's a natural head lice preventative). Over the last 2 weeks, I've been testing New York Biology's Tea Tree oil, which was sent to me for free for review purposes.

New York Biology's Tea Tree oil comes straight from Australia (Where the Tea Tree is originally from), and is of the purest form of Tea Tree oil that you can find.

 I've used other brands of Tea Tree oil that weren't as pure, and could notice the difference as soon as I opened this bottle. The scent was MUCH more potent and noticeable than the brand I'd previously been using.

Aside from being a head lice preventative and treatment, there are a number of other purposes that this oil can be used for.


Some of the purposed that Tea Tree oil can be used for as listed below:

• Acne
• Fungal infections
• Bacterial infections
• Abrasions and minor cuts
• Arthritis
• Asthma
• Dry skin
• Chapped lips
• Plantar warts

There are MANY other uses, aside from those listed above, for Tea Tree oil. It's actually one of my FAVORITE oils, and you can find it here.

Again, I received this oil free in exchange for my review, but all opinions are genuinely my own! P.S. I've got more oils from New York Biology that I'm super excited to be reviewing over the next few weeks! Essential oils have truly changed my family's life, and I honestly can't wait to share all the different medicinal benefits with everyone! (Yes, I'm an Essential Oil nut, haha!)

Holan Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser

It's me again!!! I've spent the last week or so testing a product that I'm actually super glad I found....and I love the way it works!

The Holan Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser (Which I received for free, in exchange for my honest review) is pretty nifty!

This diffuser has multiple light settings. You can set it to be a single solid color (of your choice, of course), or you can set it to rainbow mode, where it gradually changes to each color of the spectrum. The colors are bright enough to be seen, but at the same time they're dim(ish) to give the room a relaxed feel.

The Holan also has two mist settings. You can set the mist to spritz sporadically, or you can set it to a continuous mist.

If you're looking for a diffuser for the purpose of using oil blends that help with sleep, this one has an automatic shutoff function once all the water's gone, so you can fall asleep even easier with that knowledge! (My husband and I use sleep blends to help with insomnia).
