Purification

Purification can be used directly on the skin to cleanse and soothe insect bites, cuts, and scrapes. When diffused, it helps to purify and cleanse the air from environmental impurities including cigarette smoke and other disagreeable odors. Get rid of toxic sprays! Use purification instead!


  • Combine several drops with water in a spray bottle, shake to mix, then spray clothing and skin prior to going outdoors to prevent insect bites.
  • Diffuse in stale-smelling rooms, bathrooms or basements to combat unpleasant odors.

Lemon


Lemon (Citrus limon) has a strong, purifying, citrus scent that is revitalizing and uplifting. Lemon may also be used to enhance the flavor of foods. Lemon essential oil is cold-pressed from the rinds of lemons. Jean Valnet MD estimated that it takes 3,000 lemons to produce one kilo of oil.

Lemon is great to use for cleaning. 
  • Add a drop to baking soda for a bathtub or sink scrub
  • Add 10-15 drops to 3 cups distilled water plus 1 cup white vinegar for a non-toxic window cleaner.
  • Add a drop to your non-toxic dishwashing detergent for extra degreasing power.
