Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


Wasp stings are fatal if I am stung. The skin and mucous membranes swell and it is very difficult to breathe. I dread and fear that happening again.

In the fall I plucked an old dahlia, got stung and immediately started swelling.

I ran inside and poured Lavender oil over it. The pain was gone in seconds. A second dose stopped the swelling and reversed all signs in minutes.

I am so thankful for quality essential oils!
