Sweet Dreams Aromatherapy Bath Oil

Soothing, sleep-inducing bath recipe for insomnia
with lavender aromatherapy oil


lavender aromatherapy oil
Deep, rich and sensuous, this aromatherapy bath oil is one of my favorites. It calms your nerves, relaxes your muscles and quiets your mind so you can fall into a deep, peaceful sleep.


Not only that, but these essential oils are especially good for repairing the skin and reducing wrinkles (Bonus! I'm all over that!)


If you don't have time for a bath, simply massage some of the lavender aromatherapy oil into your face and torso before sliding into bed - you'll get the same luxurious effect!

Ingredients

  • 20 drops Lavender essential oil

  • 1 drop Ylang Ylang
  • 4fl oz (125ml) carrier oil of your choice (see below for ideas)

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a dark glass or PET plastic bottle. Store it in a cool, dark place (not your bathroom cabinet - it's too warm and humid.)

Choosing the Best Carrier Oils for Your Skin

Choose carrier oils that nourish and support skin. For example, you could add a bit of borage oil or sea buckthorn oil to a base of sweet almond oil or jojoba oil for dry or maturing skin.


You can really boost the skin-healing powers of the essential oils by tailoring your carrier oils to your skin's needs. Experiment - it's fun, and your skin will love you for it! Click here for the secret to super-soft skin.
