I recently had to go out of town for an appointment, and...of course I brought my oils along. This was just a quick trip; I was gone or 2 days. So, I thought I would share what oils (and oil products) I take with me on a short getaways!
Since I was trying to travel light, I only packed the oils I use everyday and then a few "great for travel" oils.
Here's what I brought! From left to right:
Thieves: I use this oil every day! I put it on the bottoms of my feet to help promote healing from candida, mold and environmental allergies. It's a great support for a healthy immune system.
Abundance: I use this oil as a perfume. I have a diffuser necklace a friend gave me, so I put one drop on the necklace and another on the back of my neck, of writs.
Endoflex: This is another oil I use daily. I use it to support my endocrine system. I put one drop over my thyroid and another over my adrenals. I put a roller ball attachment of this bottle for easier application.
Spikenard: This is becoming one of my favorite oils! I use it before bed; one drop in my wrists and neck. The scent is so relaxing! This is a powerhouse essential oil! So many awesome benefits. More about that another time...
Cypress: I usually diffuse this at night. I love the "tree" oils! I find them to be very relaxing and and grounding. I didn't bring my diffuser with me on this trip since I was going to be away for such a short time, so I just put one drop on my wrists and neck with the Spikenard.
Lemon: Lemon is a great oil to travel with! I had it on hand for as a stain remover, as well as to put in my water. This is also part of the "allergy trio" which I find very helpful for allergy related issues.
Digize: If you are traveling, you must have Digize! Great for upset stomach and nausea. Sometimes "things" don't happen as often as they should when you are traveling (and that's all I'm going to say about that...) so this helps you to go while you're on the go. And there you have it.
Peppermint: I usually don't leave home without peppermint. Great for headaches, nausea, itchy skin, stuffy nose. I also use this in my "allergy trio" i.e. Lemon, Lavender and Peppermint. I also brought Lavender, but for some reason it didn't make it in the picture.
Other oily favorites:
- Deep Relief for headache and muscles soreness. I've been putting it on my ankle and neck lately.
- Lav lip balm because it's the best ever! I love this stuff!
- Thieves Hand Sanitize for public restroom stops etc
- Thieves spray can be used as a surface spray, room spray, throat spray, or another hand sanitizer option.
I also have been loving some of YL's facial products. The Mint facial scrub and the Sheerlume' moisturizer. I used both of these products in the AM. Quick travel tip: Use a contact case to hold cleanser and moisturizer. It doesn't look like a lot, but this amount will last me for about 4 days! I've also used this same method for toothpaste.
And that's how I travel with oils! Have any travel tips and favorite oils to travel with? I'd love to hear about it!
