Hi I’m Edwina, lover of essential oils, magic maker, mama of boys, based in Newcastle NSW, Australia.

Bringing essential oils into your daily life will be a beautiful thing, can be life changing even, it was for me.

I was searching for safe, natural solutions to support my family and found doTERRA…then MAGIC HAPPENED.

Let me show you how easy it is to switch to a healthier, low tox, holistic lifestyle and really start to thrive.

Love Edwina xx

DIY Deodorant with Essential Oils 🧜🏼‍♀️✨⁣
⁣
Nope no antiperspirant for me… Not on my pits!!! 🙅🏼‍♀️ Why I DIY my deodorant... ⁣
⁣
Let’s start with the fact that our body NEEDS TO SWEAT! ⁣
⁣
As annoying as it can be, we need to learn to embrace sweat, it’s how our body rids itself from toxins & helps to regulate temperature - she’s pretty clever Mother Nature.⁣
⁣
When I learned that our good old roller Deo continued more villains than a marvel comic I ditched it. Let’s take a look… ⁣
⁣
Aluminium, it blocks the sweat ducts in your pits and prevents you from sweating, ever get little bumps under your arms? That’s a sure sign your deodorant is backing your ducts and could lead to major problems. Your body is still sweating, it’s just getting stuck under your skin. No thanks! ⁣
⁣
Triethanolamine & diethanolamine are used as emulsifiers. Both could be toxic when absorbed into the body over long periods of time! Anyone for liver or kidney damage? No? What about allergic reactions? Nope, no thanks! That’s not to mention the carcinogenic risks. ⁣
⁣
FD & C colours are made from coal derivatives and are known to be carcinogenic as well as causing skin allergies. ⁣
⁣
Then there’s the synthetic fragrances… who knows what’s in those!⁣
⁣
To think that we start to wear this junk from a young age, hello Impulse !⁣
⁣
The GOOD NEWS is that it’s so easy to avoid the toxins and either buy a ready made deodorant, there’s heaps popping up, or do what I do & DIY one! So much cheaper, easy and effective. ⁣
⁣
GERANIUM & SANDALWOOD DEODORANT⁣
⁣
1/3 cup coconut oil (room temp)⁣
2 table spoons organic bi-carb soda⁣
1/3 cup arrowroot powder⁣
8 drops geranium⁣
8 drops sandalwood (Indian or Hawaiian )⁣
⁣
Mason Jar⁣
⁣
Place the coconut oil into a small bowl with the bi-carb & arrowroot powder. Mash together with your fingertips until the mixture has a white, chalky consistency. Then add the essential oils. Transfer to store in your mason har for up to 6 months. ⁣
⁣
Use you fingers to apply to your under arms, let dry for moment before dressing. ⁣
⁣
What’s one of your fave DIY’s?⁣

Maybe you need oils, head to the link in bio or shoot me a DM and we can chat about getting you a free sample. ⁣

Mediation Spray 🧘🏼‍♀️💫🌸⁠⠀
⁠⠀
"Through prayer & meditation I create a ripple effect of peace on the world."⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I try to get up early to mediate each morning, I feel like it creates space for the day, helps with my creativity, balance and joy. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I love to use essential oils & sage to prepare the space for my morning devotion. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It's so so easy to make a little essential oils spray to spritz before your settle in for your mediation...⁠⠀
⁠⠀
One of my favourite oils blends is:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
3 drops sandalwood⁠⠀
3 drops copaiba⁠⠀
3 drops wild orange⁠⠀
3 drops clary sage⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You can use any oils that resonate with you. Just add them to a 30 ml spray bottle, a tablespoon of colloidal silver or witch-hazel and top with filtered water.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Then spray the space, your face and body. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It's portable so you can take it anywhere you like to mediate. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀

$Nourishing Face Cream - DIY Saturday! ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I find that in Winter my skin needs a little more love, it tends to get a little dry & blotchy. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I've been using this delish hand-made face cream and loving it! It's also been great on my hands, so it's a two in one product. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Double your batch and keep one in your handbag or give out to friends who love natural beauty. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ You'll need a jar to store it in and the following ingredients:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 🌼 1/2 Cup shea butter⁠⠀ 🥥 2 tablespoons of a nourishing oil like fractionated coconut, joboa, sweet almond, apricot kernal or grapeseed.⁠⠀ 💧 20 drops of beautifying essential oil - I love to mix it up and use a variety of oils like Salluablle, Frankincense, Myrrh, Rose, Palamrosa, Lavender, Geranium, Cedarwood. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Instructions:⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 1. Heat water in a saucepan over low heat, the pop a glass bowl over the top. Add the shea butter and slowly melt. Add in the nourishing skin oil. Turn off the heat.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 2. Place the mixture into the fridge so it cools & returns to just firm not solid. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 3. Remove from fridge and add the essential oils, then with your hand mixer or whisk whip together, be careful not to over blend. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 4. Then scoop into sterilised jars ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Enjoy!!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Need oils? Please get in touch, I'd be happy to help. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #metime #sundayvibes #switchoff #detox #liveinthemoment #selfcare #abeautifulmess #lovedowntime #play #essentialoils #naturalparent #abundance #yoga #meditation #DIYbeauty #essentialoilsDIY #naturalskincare #winter #cleanliving #lowtoxbeauty #cruelityfree #vegan #loveoils #sustaianableliving #doterra #livelovedoterra #makeityourself #homemade #beautyblogger #handmade$
