As a mum, I am constantly on the look out for life hacks that are going to make my life easier. Let’s face it, being a mum is a 24/7 job! Our days are filled with meeting everyone else’s needs, and sometimes ours get left behind. Some days are just so hectic that we are left run off our feet.
I thought I would put together 5 Roller Blends that I feel are essential for every mum.
Blemish Buster
This blend does wonders for me! I apply it just under my eyes first thing in the morning and just before I go to bed. It is made up of Frankincense, Lavender, and Copaiba, and then topped up with a carrier oil. Frankincense is the king of protecting skin cells and aids in reducing blemishes. Add in Lavender and Copaiba which have antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, and you have a little roller power bomb!
With constant sleepless nights up with the kids, I find my eyes aren’t as tired the next day, and I feel much more refreshed. Dark bags under the eyes are now a thing of the past!
Recipe: 10 drops of each – Frankincense, Lavender, and Copaiba. Fill the rest of a 10ml roller with a carrier oil. I use the Young Living V6 carrier oil.
Stop Itch
If your kids are anything like mine, they always come home with new itchy bites. They always seem to bother them the most when it’s time to go to bed. Our nights have become so much easier with this roller blend beauty. Our kids know they can grab this roller and use it whenever they need. Honestly, it works wonders with soothing and taking away that annoying itch!
Recipe: 15 drops Lavender, 10 drops Peppermint, 5 drops Purification
Tummy Tamer
No one likes having an upset tummy. I find with kids it can be hard to know what may be causing their upset tummy. The key ingredient in this blend is DiGize which aids in giving relief to your digestive system. Peppermint also works wonders in helping to alleviate bloating. Whenever the kids complain about tummy pain, they grab this roller and apply it to their tummy.
Recipe: 5 drops DiGize, 2 drops Peppermint, 2 drops Lemon
Headache
Lack of sleep, stress, and dealing with kids can all be triggers for causing mums to have headaches. Headaches are really unpleasant and can slow us down from being productive. This blend has a refreshing aroma that can help ease that tension. Keep this roller handy and simply apply it to your temples and neck when you feel a headache coming on.
Recipe: 10 drops Peppermint, 6 drops Lavender, 5 drops Frankincense, 5 drops Copaiba.
Cough Relief
Flu season is horrible, especially with young kids. The cooler night air often seems to aggravate their cough giving them a restless sleep. Simply roll this blend onto their chest and feet to help ease their coughing. Everyone can get back to having a better sleep!
Recipe: 15 drops Eucalyptus, 10 drops Frankincense, 5 drops Lemon, 5 drops R.C.
I hope these blends will help to give you a bit of calm in between the chaos of mothering! If I’ve missed any essentials, I’d love to hear about them!
Most of these essential oils come in the Premium Starter Kits.
