Essential Oils- What do I use?

      I was talking yesterday with a friend who is new to using essential oils.  She says to me, "There are so many oils and products and so much information to take in.  I don't know where to start!  What oils do you use?"  I thought to myself, 'What a great starting point!'  This should be what I tell all my friends and folks I meet that are new to oils because there are a lot of oils, blends, supplements and products available and there are so many different uses for each of these amazing oils.  It is a lot to take in!  Where better to start than with examples of use from me ( a real live person that they know and trust!)  

     So here goes...

     I start my day off with a hot shower, hopefully, some mornings are crazier than others.   In the shower I use doTERRA's Salon Essentials Protecting Shampoo and Smoothing Conditioner.   I also wash my face in the shower using their Essential Skin Care Facial Cleanser.

     After the shower I dry off and then I rub the Balance blend on the bottoms of both my feet to set my grounded calm mood for the day. 

     Before I put on my makeup I apply the Essential Skin Care Hydrating Cream to me face. 

     Next I make and eat breakfast.  While I am in the kitchen I make a large to-go bottle of water.  In my water I mix 3-4 drops of Lemon oil and 3-4 drops of Grapefruit oil (always drink citrus oils in a glass bottle- no plastic!).  They taste yummy and promote healthy digestion and help with water retention.   Grapefruit is a known antidepressant, antiseptic, disinfectant, diuretic, stimulant and tonic.  Awesome!

     After breakfast I brush my teeth.  I love our On Guard Whitening Toothpaste.  It has the On Guard immunity boosting blend and I could always use an immunity boost!  Plus it has a yummy cinnamony taste.  

     Then, since my tummy is full of yummy breakfast, I take my Life Long Vitality supplements. 

And that's it!  That's how I start my day using doTERRA Essential Oils and products.  There are several oils and products that I use for specialty circumstances: headaches, cuts/scrapes, upset tummies, bug bites and so much more but these are the things that I use every day!  What do you use?
