If you’re anything like me, you’ve got a great stash of essential oils and are always looking for ways to
use them. With the holidays coming up, I decided to make a bunch of DIY essential oil recipes to share
with family and friends. Let me just tell you how much money this is going to save me! Woot! Plus, I love
the idea of giving loved ones healthy, non-toxic products that they can use as toiletries or in their home.
This luxurious exfoliating scrub will help give our skin a healthy glow!

5 drops each of Lavender, Frankincense and Ylang Ylang
Directions
Measure your salt and pour into a large glass bowl. Add your olive oil and mix well with a metal spoon.
Add your essential oils and continue to stir your mixture. Slowly scoop into your glass pot. Close tightly
with white lid and label. Store in a cool, dark place. Scoop out a silver dollar size of scrub and apply to
body. Repeat weekly. This is one of the most pampering DIY essential oil recipes :)
Soothing Shaving Gel essential oil recipe by your friend Mama Natural
Soothing Shaving Gel
Papa Natural actually prefers a gel than a cream so I made this one for him. The aloe vera serves as
your “gel” and leaves your skin soft and conditioned. Lemongrass and Grapefruit smell absolutely divine
together and they help to support circulation and the lymph system to boot!
Sensual After Shave essential oil recipe by your friend Mama Natural
Sensual After Shave
This another one of my favorites out of these DIY essential oil recipes because Orange + Sandalwood =
Heaven! Both of these soothing oils are perfect in this aftershave, not only because of the fabulous smell
but because they are hydrating to the skin.
Mama's Boob & Belly Rub essential oil recipe by Mama Natural
Mama’s Boob & Belly Rub
This rub is wonderful for all things skin. As our bellies and boobs expand in pregnancy and
breastfeeding, this balm will help to condition and nurture the skin. Cocoa, shea, coconut and vitamin E
are also used in many stretch mark formulations on the market. These are both safe oils to use during
pregnancy and postpartum.
