Have you thought about using your essential oils to massage your hands? Recently I decided to see how using this option benefits your “well-being” care.
Here is what I learned from an article at the Healthline website:
See additional details at the link below.

Treat yourself to watching the 5 minute hand massage demonstrations at the videos below. You will not be disappointed.
Healthline has detailed guidelines for which carrier and essential oils to use. In addition, I want to remind you always use a carrier oil (for example, fractionated coconut oil, olive oil) to dilute essential oils.

It seems odd now, that many years ago I was given wellness care from a dear friend, Leslie(Les) Kaslof, who was at the time delving into herbs and later “flower essences” .
I had a severe allergy reaction to the environment, which resulted in very bad headaches and constant sneezing. He whipped up a concoction of herbs and gave me a pillow of lavender flowers and oil to lay on my head. I was willing to try almost anything at the time because i was in so much pain.
Well folks, whatever Les blended with the herbs and “flower essences” he had, it worked. That was more than 50 years ago. No one of our friends knew anything about the study of herbs and oils. In fact, Les made a chart of the herbs and what they could be used for. I include a link here to that masterpiece. I shall always remember that gift given time and the attention and care Les gave to me. He was a pioneer in the Flower Essence World.

Life is full of ironies – fast forward to my present-day interests. I am a certified aromatherapist, and I spend a lot of time researching essential oils, and more recently flower essences, which I was introduced to by my aromatic wellness colleagues. “Low and behold” – this is what Les was involved in! So, I am eager to share this video with you, which was posted on the Herbalist Without Borders blog. I am a member of this nonprofit organization. At a time when pharmaceuticals are available for ‘this & that’, I am reminded that my grandmother always used herbs for her wellness care and lived until she was 94 years old. As a matter of fact, she would send my sister and me to Kiehls to purchase ‘dandelion’ and other herbs, which she would use for her wellness regimen. At that time, it was a storefront.
Sometimes, we need to get ‘back to basics‘. Take a look at the presentation below in your free time. You just might find a solution to the issue you’re having.

How many times have you thought about keeping that old makeup and even worse used it? I get it. Makeup is expensive, and sometimes we overbuy, or over experiment – then we end up wasting those hard to come buy dollars.
Nevertheless, makeup does have an expiration date, and we should be cautious to follow the suggestions given on its use.
