Oils are yummy smelling, at times, and fun.
Alright people...
Essential Oil Fun!
Rules:
* don't buy crap! Try to stick to natural, unblended oils.. organic is best but ohhhh so expensive!
* buy good quality blending blending oils, like Apricote Kernal oil
* keep away from light
* don't store about 18 degree cel and not in the fridge either!
Some nice things to try listed below:
Relaxing Calming Hand Cream
Buy a bottle of good quality Sorblene cream.
Blend it with about 10 drops of Lavender oil. Try it. Likeit a bit stronger? Add in a few more Drops.
Variations include:
Add also in a few drops of Jasmine oil, very sensual
Pepermint Foot Cream
Do you suffer from sore feet? Or are they a little on the nose?
A small jar of Sorblene cream blended with 5 drops of Pepermint oil will do wonders!
Best results, lather your feet init before bed, and slip into some cotton socks and sleep with it while it works on your feet

for sleep you could also try dried and crushed beladonna....careful tho...just a pinch this stuff can knock out a moose...hehehe
exallent moreish, they are some handy recipes to have in stock.i no ill be trying the concentration and exam stress.

Daermon, be careful though with the belladonna. If you aren't used to working with it, caution should be used. Hehehehe.

You can always do what I did and just copy and paste them into a text file on your computer... :^)
for sleep, a tea of mint leaves, depending on the type of mint leaf you use determins it's effectiveness..I too tired to be bothered remembering all the different types, can look it up at your local herbalist
