3 Essential oil Projects to Spice Up Your Valentine's Day



We all have a basic need for love and connection. For many, February 14th is a day to celebrate relationships, whether it’s a special someone, a close friend, or your family. Whether you’re celebrating with a fancy dinner and red roses, a night out on the town, or a rom-com movie night with your best friends, everyone can have fun spicing up Valentine's with some essential oils that suit their personality.


Here are three of my favorite oil-based gifts to make for the people I love at this time of year.


Make these ahead of time to let the oils incorporate and aromas mature.

Balance essential oil blend or 20 drops of InTune have been my most successful

aromatic combinations.
