February has arrived, and we’re declaring it Frankincense February here at Odds & Evans. We are kicking off the first month of our new project, the (Essential) “Oil Change” Challenge, to help you become more comfortable in reaching for your essential oils safely and effectively. If you haven’t purchased a Premium Starter Kit yet, please do so here using this referral link, as these are the oils we are going to be covering for the rest of 2016 so that you know exactly what to do with your oils when they arrive. February’s spotlight will be Frankincense, the spiritual oil. Public blog posts here are going to detail where this oil comes from and ways to use it, including homemade recipes and tips. We will also be including other “everyday” essential oils that go well with “Frank” in terms of similar usage, purpose, and DIY beauty recipes. Love your oils,

I am so excited about Young Living’s new ultrasonic diffusers that feature color-illuminated vapors and act as an aroma diffuser, night light, and atomizer…all-in-one! These diffusers provide children with a fun and interactive way to learn about essential oils, and transforms any space into an exciting, aroma-filled atmosphere. There are two wonderful choices to choose from (so far). The motor of each diffuser is multi-compatible which means you can just buy the other top/design cover and switch them anytime you desire. In other words, you could buy the Dolphin Reef diffuser and then just buy the Dino Land cover if you want both. {Patents-pending interchangeable cover system} The Dolphin Reef Ultrasonic Diffuser features a playful mother dolphin and her calf swimming through color-illuminated vapor released by pink sea sponges. The colorful coral, starfish, sea anemones, and a pearl-bearing giant clam will captivate your children’s imaginations and transport them into an undersea wonderland,

Because I ordered Lavender, Lemon, a few Thieves, Tea Tree, and RC this month…I received a Tangerine, Aroma Life, and additional Lemon essential oil for FREE! Not to mention that I gained product credit on everything I purchased that I can use towards MORE FREE items. This is Young Living’s Essential Rewards program. I place an order each month. Sometimes it is to replenish oils I am running low on, sometimes I want to try something new. Sometimes it is for a gift for someone, or maybe we are stocking up on supplements that we love and would need to buy somewhere anyway. Essential Rewards (ER) gives me “points” back on every dollar I order. I’ve been ordering for over a year now so I collect 20% of each order in points, which I can accumulate and redeem on products whenever I want to. If I have 100 ER points, I

The power of touch can produce incredible effects. Skin-to-skin contact is important to our entire lives, from baby up. Massages can relieve stress, aches and pains, improve circulation – tons of physical and mental benefits. Touch enhances positive emotions, so it is no wonder how vital massage can be to maintaining strong relationships (with ourselves and others). A good massage oil will help reduce friction on the skin while moisturizing it. Any nourishing nutrients are absorbed into the skin, so infusing a light base oil with 3 or 4 essential oils provides added benefit to really enhance the experience. Buying a scented massage oil will most likely contain synthetic fragrances and other unnecessary ingredients. Making your own is so easy, plus will be customized just the way you want it! Oh, I wish you could smell it through this screen! The Basic Rub You will need a light, easily-spreadable base oil. Almond (or sweet
