The hustle and bustle of the holidays can unravel even the most organized gift-giver. To uplift your spirits, try organic essential oils, which also make wonderful holiday gifts. For a quick pick-me-up, look for citrus scents, like lemon, orange or grapefruit. In the shower, try the extra-large Organic Palm Oil Soap Bar from Kiss My Face, made with sweet orange and lime essential oils. The decadently rich Nerola Orange Blossom Body Butter from Pacifica makes a beautifully packaged gift, and features orange essential oils. Greet guests with an uplifting fragrance in your home by using Ecco Mist Organic Citrus Room Spray from Ecco Bella. Or consider Cinnamon Orange Home Perfume from L’Occitane, which comes in a beautiful glass spray bottle that gift recipients will love to have around the house.
Essential oils of peppermint and eucalyptus are also powerful mood-boosting scents; they can help clear the mind and revive the senses. For a daily boost, stock your shower with Early to Rise Shower Gel from Kiss My Face for a powerful dose of basil, eucalyptus, juniper, lemon, and spearmint aromas. For a holiday gift, try Peace of Mind Stress Relief Oil from Origins, which can be used in a diffuser to scent your home or office.
To invoke happy holiday memories, try products that contain evergreen scents or spices like clove or cinnamon. Try Holiday Blues shower gel from Philosophy, a special blend of evergreen-scented goodness that will lift the spirits of any Grinch, 100 percent of the gross profits are donated to the Ricky Martin Foundation. To create holiday warmth in the home, give the Cinnamon and Stars Gift set from Primavera, made with organic essential oils or mist Aveda’s Cinnamon Bark in Clove Oil aromatherapy oil on guest towels or in your home’s entryway. To relieve holiday stress, relax in the Aromatherapy Spruce Bath from Dr. Hauschka or give the gift of Wisdom Bath Oil from Mandala Aroma, which features organic essential oils like frankincense and vetivert.
