KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Orange: Orange essential oil has a sweet, bright aroma reminiscent of a blossoming orchard of orange trees. The scent is uplifting and just brings a smile to your face, plus this citrus oil is high in limonene, a constituent known for immune support.
  • Clove: If there were one oil synonymous with antioxidants, it would be Clove. This oil protects our brains, hearts, lungs, immune systems and basically the body as a whole. Clove is also high in the constituent eugenol, which boasts well documented health supporting properties.
  • Laurus Nobilis: commonly known as bay laurel or bay leaf, Laurus Nobilis essential oil contains antioxidants, offers cleansing properties, and helps provide immune support when taken as a dietary supplement.
  • Helichrysum: Helichrysum is an incredible oil for soothing any need where the body is inflamed. It is also great for emotions. Helichrysum is called "honey for the psyche" because of its lightly sweet scent and its ability to help us process and release the effects of trauma.
  • Frankincense: This powerful oil has been known to enhance immunological function, beautify skin, and increase spiritual awareness and is high in the constituents alpha-pinene and limonene
  • Western Red Cedar: Beneficial to the emotions, the respiratory system, and the skin, this oil can be used for many things including immune support. Western Red Cedar is also great for opening and soothing the airways in the presence of allergens, especially when paired with Laurus Nobilis, Frankincense and Helichrysum.
