I have now added some exciting products to my range.
First of all a collection of rejuvenating oils.
To decide what combinations of essential oils worked, I made up a few different combinations in 50 ml bottles with different base oils and stored them in a dark cupboard for over twelve months to mature. At the end of that time I tested them, made a few adjustments, stored them again and have now come up with four rejuvenating oils and three base oils.
What I wished to achieve were oils primarily for self-massage. Although it’s nice to have someone massage you it’s not always possible and when you think about it you can self-massage most areas of your body, hands, feet, arms, legs, abdomen, ,shoulders and some parts of the upper and lower back, avoiding straining of course! I want you to relax!
A few drops in the bath is wonderful and massaging after a bath or shower is a good time as the oil penetrates the skin easier and the aroma is so relaxing. They can also be used as a wake up treatment in the shower, pour a few drops onto a face cloth and briskly rub over the body, ready for the day! I’ll now look at each Rejuvenating Oil individually.
