Did you know Patchouli is a member of the mint family and blends well with Peppermint oil? Try it out in this mouth rinse recipe, found here. Historically used to freshen breath, the musky-sweet, and earthy aroma is refreshing and deodorizing.

Diffuse alone or combine with woody aromas to enjoy the grounding benefits of dōTERRA Patchouli. Apply it to dry areas to help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and blemishes. When diluted, dōTERRA Patchouli acts as a natural deodorant. The strong and unique scent makes a great base in floral blends.

Summer is great for going outdoors and energizing your soul.  dōTERRA’s Citrus Bliss Invigorating Blend combines the powerful essences of Wild Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit, Mandarin, Bergamot, Tangerine, and Clementine with a hint of Vanilla Absolute to form a unique and harmonious blend to bring the outdoors in.

Citrus Bliss is not only nice for uplifting your mood, but can also be mixed with water for a perfect solution for wiping down countertops and other surfaces while producing a fresh, sweet scent.

Use doTERRA Citrus Bliss by mixing 2 drops of Citrus Bliss with 2 drops of Lavender and 2 drops of Peppermint. Gently blend and apply to temples and inhale to help improve your focus.

My favorite use for Citrus Bliss is to combine with Balance for a cheerful, even-keel day!

When your children are busy, taking care of their skin in distressed moments can be difficult.

Do you love summer, but hate the heat that comes with it? Cool off with doTERRA Spearmint! Its sweet, refreshing aroma is cleansing and uplifting, making it ideal to evoke a sense of focus and positive mood. Spearmint is very different from Peppermint, and is a milder option to use on children and persons with sensitive skin. Spearmint can also be great for use in the kitchen. Try it in a salad as part of a homemade dressing, a spearmint julep, or any of your favorite desserts. Spearmint also makes for a great addition to any meat marinade recipe.
