Essential oils have been around for thousands of years, but have recently seen a spike in popularity.
Perhaps it’s because studies suggest that aromatherapy is linked to physical and psychological well-being. And who doesn’t want to zen out after a stressful day or help relieve a painful migraine?
It’s not a cure-all, but using essential oils for aromatherapy stimulates the olfactory nerve where memories and emotions live, thus impacting the body’s chemistry. The result? Depending on the scent, you can feel uplifted, calm or even get pain relief.
If you’re curious about aromatherapy, look no further than Lagunamoon Essential Oils. The set of six oils is being called “life-changing” by Amazon shoppers and has been a consistent top-seller in the beauty category for months. It even has more than 13,500 near-perfect reviews. You can use the oils in a diffuser, vaporizer or bath. Or dilute them with water for cleaning or spritzing linens. The best part? They’re on sale for 38 percent off!
“These essential oils come in a cute gift set, but I like them for me because they are multi-purpose and I love the smell,” explained one happy customer. “I use eucalyptus in a vaporizer, perfect for flu or cough. I put some lavender in my pillow to help me sleep, and tea tree is excellent for healing cuts or acne.”
The $10 (was $16) kit includes six .33-ounce bottles of popular, pure essential oils: lemongrass (clarity), peppermint (concentration), orange (peace), lavender (cognitive functions), eucalyptus (optimism) and tea tree (calmness). And all you need is a couple of drops to reap the benefits.
“I am usually stressed out, and these have helped me so much,” wrote a reviewer who called them ‘life-changing.’ “I have a hard time falling asleep at night, and the lavender oil helps me fall asleep and stay asleep.”
Another added, “Me and my husband have very high-stress jobs. He works heavy equipment and gets a lot of headaches. I bought these with the diffuser and really love the scents and relaxing effect. I've been rubbing one drop of the lavender on my husband’s wrist each morning, and it seems to help him relax.”
At just $10, you can’t beat the value — but you can also expect top-quality.
“I was surprised at how strong they are! I put a few drops in my diffuser, and it fills my entire house!” raved a buyer. “The one I really like is the peppermint. I get migraines a lot and have been putting a drop of peppermint oil behind my ears, at the base of my neck and on my temples.”
The same satisfied shopper added, “I'm very happy with this purchase! The price is reasonable. They also are packaged very nicely so if you wanted to buy some oils as a gift these would be perfect.”
