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.


I just wanted to share another testimonial about how wonderful high quality essential oils are and how they are a blessing in my family!

Yesterday my husband was having a pretty bad allergy episode that consisted of continuous sneezing, runny nose, and watery, red itchy eyes. He normally takes a generic over-the-counter store brand allergy pill but had forgotten to take it for a few days. And, as we all know, it takes a while for the meds to kick in. He needed relief fast, as he was about to leave for work.

So I said let's try the oils.

He took 1 drop of Lavender under the tongue. I will admit he hated it! Then I mixed up 4 drops of olive oil with 1 drop of Peppermint oil, and he rubbed it across his sinuses and bridge of his nose and under his nose, also behind his ears and temples. We prayed for healing, and he left for work.

Later on his break, he texted me to tell me he felt relief within 30 minutes and no more issues for the rest of his shift!
