Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary oil is one of the most popular essential oils, and also one my favorites.  I love the herbaceous, crisp, and lemony aroma.  Rosemary oil has the ability to stimulate hair growth, boost mental activity, relieve respiratory problems and reduce pain.  This essential oil is wonderful for your skin, it helps tone your skin and removes dryness.  This oil is a perfect additive to soaps, lotions, hair care products and facial toners.  Rosemary oil is refreshing, stimulating, and invigorating.  It is a excellent treatment for oily skin, acne, hair, or as a scalp treatment promoting hair growth.  This amazing essential oil has the ability to help with memory retention, focus and alertness.



Rosemary Oil Uses:
  • Blend rosemary oil with a light oil of your choice, such as sweet almond oil or olive oil to create a massage oil.  Massage direct on your skin to help cure back pain, stiffness, aches and fatigue.
  • Add a few drops of rosemary oil into your bath water. Can quickly assist with mucus congestion, muscular aches, cramps, colds, constipation, diarrhea, coughs, bronchitis, mental and physical fatigue.
  • Use handmade rosemary soaps they are beneficial for improving blood circulation and clears clogged pores.
  • When rosemary oil is added to shampoo it not only increases the circulation to the scalp, it promotes hair growth.

Who doesn’t want healthy and thick hair?
Rosemary essential oil has a wealth of benefits, it is a oil that I will not live without.

Aromatherapy At Home

Creative aromatherapy tips with essential oils
to try at home.


  • If you are burning a unscented candle or it needs a little boost of scent, simply drop a few drops of oil in the melted wax to gently diffuse aroma (avoid direct flame). Peppermint essential oil early in the morning is a fabulous idea to wake you up and get you going.
  • You can add a few drops of Lavender Essential oil to your bath or the kiddos tub. Creating a heavenly, super relaxing and stress free feeling. If you have a cold skip the lavender and add a few drops of Eucalyptus to breath easy.
  • Try heating a small pot of water, pour it into a bowl, and add a few drops of oil and let the aromatic smell fill the entire room. Use rosemary or ginger essential oils to increase alertness, or a replace with few drops of jasmine for romance.

Essential Oils Uses


How did I ever live without my essential oils,
they have so many wonderful uses in one little bottle?
It is awesome that with essential oils “less is more” and a tiny bit of oil has a big impact.
  • For a quick morning pick me up, place a few drops of peppermint essential oil on the bottom of the shower. This will help boost your mood for the day.
  • Place 1 drop of each lavender and peppermint on the bottom of your pet carrier while taking long trips with your dog. The oils will help to calm down nervous or hyperactive and prevent car sickness. Your doggie will thank you.
  • Each night before bedtime I spray my pillow with lavender room and linen spray. I sleep like a baby all night long.
  • When I am feeling a little fatigued during the day instead of a afternoon cup of coffee. I grab the bottle of peppermint essential oil and inhale for a cooling boost. I find myself back to giving 100% in no time.
  • When anyone in our family feels like we are getting a cold we simply rub a few drop of eucalyptus under our noses before bedtime. Breathing easy all night long.
  • To energize my workout I spray my energize mat with peppermint room and linen spray.


I hope that you have enjoyed these tips about aromatherapy
with the use of essential oils.
I love using essential oils that are highly concentrated and 100% plant extracts.



I would love to hear how you use essential oils?
