1st Aide For Body And Soul 
Essential oils are so helpful to have on hand. They increase immunity and vibration. They can be used for health and beauty. I use them to clean the house too! Remember that Lavender and Tea Tree are the two oils that can be used directly on the skin without a carrier oil. I personally use other oils directly on the skin, however you must use your discretion. They can burn your skin and the citruses shouldn't be used in the Sun due to their photo sensitizing properties. Use a carrier when necessary. All essential oils have antimicrobial properties.


Lavender
Lavender sp.
For cuts, rashes, insect bites, headaches, insomnia, infections, cramps, stress, anxiety, hair, skin, sunburns and fungal infections. Balancing energetically. Always helps to soothe me, body, mind and spirit. I adore Lavender baths!
