They have so many uses that you’ll wish you had one on hand for every occasion.I’m always on the go, and there are countless moments throughout the day where I’m tired, I’m feeling down….and good god, a pimple!! Where are my essential oils when I need them?? Rollerballs are here to save the day! A perfect little fun-sized container for our precious EO blends.
What You’ll Need
An eyedropper (many rollerball sets will come with these)
Essential oils
A carrier oil. Any of the following will work wonderfully:

The Recipes

Let’s start with a blend that treats the arch-nemesis that we are plagued by from time to time, if not chronically. Whether a pimple is predictable on a daily basis or pops up at the most inconvenient moment, you need a remedy! So here it is.

This past month has kept me super busy. I’ve entertained house guests, taken road trips and long plane rides, and “sleep” has become a word from a foreign language. Here's a blend that will wake you up and invigorate your senses. Use this blend to pull you through a study session or to bring clarity to a mental fog while you’re in the office.

No one likes feeling down, but it happens. It’s part of being human. Maybe someone said something that made you feel less than, or not a part of. Perhaps you are mourning a loss, or you are disappointed about expectations that weren’t met. Try this rollerball blend for some comfort and to improve your attitude. This blend works well when inhaled. Apply it to your hands, cup your hands over your mouth and nose, and breathe deep.
