KidScents KidPower
August's Oil Spotlight
Sometimes life can be big and scary for children, but they have the power to face all of life's big and little challenges! Sometimes they just need help discovering that power inside themselves.
KidPower is a unique, everyday blend formulated to help inspire feelings of confidence, courage, and positivity at home, at school, or on the playground...
But it's not just for kids! This blend is also amazing for adults and makes a wonderful perfume.
KidPower AT A Glance

- Aroma creates a comforting environment for times of daily stress, occasional anxiousness, or nervousness
- Blended aroma helps support feelings of emotional balance, well-being and positivity
- Pre-diluted for delicate skin
- Recommended for children ages 2 and up
Background
- Back Spruce - earthy and grounding to help balance the senses
- Blue Tansy - has a floral aroma that is uplifting to the senses and calming to the Central Nervous System

Daily Habits with KidPower
- Apply 2-4 drops directly to wrists, chest, neck or any other area. Dilution is not required, except for the most sensitive of skin, so you can add a roller fitment directly to the bottle or opt for the roll-on version.
- Create an application ritual, and get your kids involved! Grab your KidPower or KidPower Roll-on and place it beside their toothbrush, backpack, or homeschool bin - anywhere they will be able to find and easily use it daily. We love rolling on our oil and repeating a family Motta, a bible verse, or positive affirmation together.
- Make a roller with KidPower, Vetiver, and Lavender for help calming over excited kids and promote calm, confident focus.
- Make a simple linen spray with equal parts KidPower and Lavender, a splash of witch hazel and filtered water. Spray on sheets, loves, pajamas, or any other soft surface as desired.

Diffusing is a wonderful health habit! We have our diffuser going almost 24/7 and love to choose blends that are supportive of individual needs or systems. Try some of these great combinations and enjoy the soothing scent of KidPower with us this month!

Lavender
June's Oil Spotlight
Lavender essential oil has a scent that's a wonderful blend of fresh, floral, clean and calm. It's this dynamic aroma that has made the plant a classic for perfumes, soaps, freshness, and beauty products.
Lavender is a great beginner oil and a must for every home, which is why its a part of the Everyday Oils Collection in the Starter Bundle. Lavender essential oil isn't a favorite only because if its classic scent - its also highly versatile. From skin care products to relaxing routines, this oil can infuse and enhance many areas of your life.
Each month we focus on using an oil every day to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in June. My goal is to use up an entire bottle for my personal use.
Lavender AT A Glance
- Has a fresh, floral aroma that pairs well with many other oils
- Can help cleanse and soothe minor skin irritations
- Can be soothing to the skin after a day in the sun
- May reduce the appearance of blemishes
- Support aging skin
- Cams and relaxes the mind and body
- Soothes seasonal respiratory needs
Background
- Fear and Abandonment, being left alone. By rubbing Lavender over the abdomen and using the mantra "I embrace all life's experiences" can help us be open to self-reliance and our contentment to all things. The opposite of abandonment is not being fully self-reliant, but being connected to everything working together for our good.
- Fear of Criticism. This one is huge, especially if you are in a line of work where you put yourself out there often (or if you have a high-maintenance toddler too!) Using Lavender as perfume while paring it with mantras and unconditional love for ourselves can be a great practice for developing self confidence.
- Fear of New Things, fear of moving forward. Sometimes there are big transitions in life and sometimes it seems scary to open ourselves up to change. Lavender has a beautiful way of calming the central nervous system to help us be more open to change and gaining positive momentum.
Daily Habits with Lavender
- Unwind in the evening with a calming, Lavender-infused neck or back massage. Feeling tense? Add a little Peppermint and Frankincense.
- Use Lavender as a part of a bedtime routine by rubbing it on the bottoms of your feet and diffusing it next to your bed.
- Make a relaxing Lavender eye pillow (find the details here)
- Rub Lavender and coconut oil on the skin after time in the sun or make an after-sun spray or balm.
- 1/4 cup solid coconut oil (or liquid carrier for a spray)
- 10 drops Peppermint essential oil
- 20 drops Lavender essential oil
- Optional: 15 drops Tea Tree essential oil for extra red/hot skin.
- Add 10 drops of Lavender to 1 cup Epsom salt to a bath to create a relaxing environment. We also love adding Peace & Calming or Frankincense to the mix.
- Use Lavender seasonally to support the airways when air quality is less than ideal.
- Seasons Change Roller Blend: 15 drops each Lavender, Lemon, Peppermint, Copaiba then fill it with carrier oil. Roll over the chest, wrists, or just below the nostrils.
- Add 5 drops each Lavender and Copiaba to 1 cup fine grain sea salt and dilute with 8-12 oz distilled water to make a DIY nasal rinse solution.
- Use a drop of Lavender Vitality under the tongue or swiped on the inside of the cheek.

Energy, vitality, and fitness - things we all want, right?

Peppermint also has a strong emotional benefits. The bright, crisp aroma is wonderful to inhale to soothe anxious feelings, uplift the spirits and calm racing thoughts and restlessness. When we inhale oils, the area of our brain dealing with memory and mood is affected, so diffusing or applying peppermint oil can help us tremendously. It's wonderful paired with citrus oils for a vibrant, uplifting aroma!
PEPPERMINT & RAINDROP:
- Peppermint is one of the key essential oils used in the Raindrop massage technique and is also compliant of the oil blends used in this technique.
- Raindrop Roll-on:
- 10 drops each: Oregano, Basil, Marjoram, Cypress, Thyme, Wintergreen, Peppermint, Aroma Siez

LEMONGRASS
March's Oil of the Month
Create a healthy wellness routine and refresh your home for spring with Lemongrass!
Each month we focus on using an oil every day to help us in accomplishing our goals. Join us in choosing a method of application and simply getting this oil on and around you every day in March! My goal is to use up an entire bottle for my personal use.
LEMONGRASS AT A GLANCE:
- Includes the naturally occurring constituents neral, geranial, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene
- Has skin-cleansing properties
- Enhances massage after activity
- Purifies the air from bad odors
- Reduces musky aromas in moist, damp environments
BACKGROUND:
Lemongrass recalls exotic locales and warm winds and adds a subtle scent of citrus to the air, making it one of our favorite springtime oils! Lemongrass belongs to the Poaceae family, the flowering plants known as grasses. The plant is native to Southeast Asia, South America, and other tropical locations where warm, moist climates encourage its growth. It is distilled from the leaves and woody stalks of the lemongrass plant, and it produces a subtle citrus-herb scent. Lemongrass has a sophisticated and relaxing aroma that can transform your home’s environment into a comforting sanctuary!
LEMONGRASS & EMOTIONS by Eryn Jones:
LEMONGRASS is a wonderful oil for the "shoulds" and "expectations" we so often feel, whether they are real or perceived. Number 9s on the Enneagram Personality Test feel these in their gut. Rubbing Lemongrass or DiGize over the abdomen or diffusing Lemongrass can help release them and focus on their own needs and wants. (Side note: this can often physically manifest as actual stomach discomfort and these oils can help with that too!)
LEMONGRASS & SKINCARE:
- Use lemongrass as a spot treatment for blemishes. You can also make your own T-zone toner with this simple recipe:
- 2oz glass bottle
- 10 drops Lemongrass
- 5 drops Lavender
- Fill with Witch Hazel
- DIY Lemongrass Sugar Scrub: The citrusy scent of lemongrass is super uplifting, and the oil itself is actually really good for your skin. This simple sugar scrub recipe is perfect for your hands, lips, and body, helps soften skin and is super moisturizing. Massage this concoction gently into your skin to get rid of dry and rough skin, leaving your skin super soft and hydrated.
- 1 cup sugar
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 3 tbsp raw honey
- 10 drops lemongrass essential oil
- In a mixing bowl, mix together sugar, olive oil, honey, and essential oil until well blended. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.
DAILY HABITS WITH LEMONGRASS:
- Add a few drops of lemongrass to dryer balls for the freshest smelling laundry!
- Make your own substitute for chemical-based air fresheners. To a 2oz spray bottle add 10 drops of lemongrass, a splash of witch hazel, and fill with water. Spritz it over carpets, furniture, and linens to eliminate stale odors!
- Adding 3–4 drops of lemongrass to a sink full of dishes, a load of laundry, or Thieves Household Cleaner for extra oomph and a wonderful, uplifting scent!
- Add lemongrass to an epsom salt bath and/or use for a post-workout massage to ease and support tired muscles.
- Reach for lemongrass for sleep support! Throughout history it has been used as a sedative and a tool for anxious thoughts, so it's the perfect addition to your favorite sleep roller. Try this recipe: In a 10 ml bottle add:
- 10 drops Lavender
- 10 drops Orange
- 5 drops Lemongrass
- Top off with carrier oil. Apply to wrists, back of neck, temples and feet.
