I just received two, full one ounce bottles of Essential Oils. I love, love, love all things
"EO"
The company is called New York Biology. They have an extensive list of Essential Oils.
The two scented oils that I received are
Peppermint Oil and
Tea Tree Oil.
Tea tree oil is a fantastic cleaner and disinfectant.
Use Tea Tree Oil for:
Mildew: Combine 1 cup white vinegar and 60
drops NYB tea tree oil in a reusable spray bottle. Spritz on mold or mildew and
let sit for 10 minutes. Scrub with stiff-bristled brush.
DIY
soap: If
you have time to burn and have this NYB oil, here is a great idea! Just mix 2 cups melted glycerin soap base and 3 tablespoons
tea tree oil. Stir until blended, pour into soap molds and cool.
Laundry: Do you have cloth diapers or
teenagers? Make sure to add 1 tablespoon of NYB tea tree oil to the wash. The
powerful antifungal properties of tea tree oil will help prevent bacterial and
fungal infections.
Smelly Shoes? Make those feet smell better
using Tea Tree oil to create this shoe powder. Mix 1⁄4 cup cornstarch, 1⁄4 cup
baking soda, and 20 drops each lavender and tea tree oil for an effective
homemade shoe deodorant.
General Cleaner: Any spray bottle you have
laying around, mix 15+ drops
tea tree oil with 1 quart warm water for a multipurpose cleaner.
ALSO - For a gentle and effective all-purpose cleaner, mix 20-25 drops of tea tree oil with
¼ cup of water and a ½ cup of distilled white vinegar in a spray bottle. Shake
well, spray directly onto surfaces, and wipe down with a clean cloth. Remember the oil won't mix with the water or vinegar, hence the shaking.
This New York Biology Peppermint Oil has some great uses!
Aching Feet: If your feet are sore at the end of a
long day, mix up some Epson salt and peppermint oil with warm water. Soak your
feet for at least 15 minutes. Not only will this relax your aching feet, but
peppermint essential oil also has pain relieving properties.
Bathroom Woes: If you’re having trouble with
constipation or trouble urinating (especially directly after childbirth), put a
few drops of peppermint oil in the toilet bowl. Peppermint oil helps to open
mucus membrane and a few drops in the toilet will open everything up. Bonus:
fresh smelling bathroom.
Odor
Eliminator: Try
diffusing or spraying peppermint around your home to help clean the air and get
rid of any odors. If the smell of paint fumes bothers you, try adding a
15ml bottle of peppermint oil to a 5 gallon bucket of paint and mixing it in to
dispel the fumes.
Strong,
Natural Cleaner: I make my
own peppermint oil cleaner. It is anti-septic and anti-bacterial. Just
put 15 drops of peppermint oil into a cleaner bottle with one cup of vinegar
and then add water.
