Conclusion
There are many variations to these recipes so play around with different essential oils for different scents. Always be sure to test a small area on the skin before using any essential oils to make sure you don’t have an allergic reaction. You can store these in glass jars or bottles with lids that can be found here on Amazon. I also have another article with many recipes using essential oils which you can find by clicking here.
