6 tablespoons rosewater
2 tablespoons vegetable glycerin
2 tablespoons honey
EO Blend: 5 drops each of chamomile, rosewood, and geranium
Prepare EO blend and allow it to marry for several days. Then combine all ingredients in a dark bottle and shake well. Shake well before using.
10 drops ylang ylang
8 drops lime
8 drops rosemary
1 cup boiled water
2 ounces apple cider vinegar
Combine all ingredients; use regularly as a hair rinse.
As always, the essential oil formula will be more effective if you blend it a few days before and allow it to marry. Try blending enough for a week or two.
Finally, a good use for all those pretty stones you pick up!
large basin
enough small round stones to cover the bottom

1 cup epsom salts

Line bottom of basin with stones, add (not too) hot water, swish around the epsom salts and then add 5 drops only of the EO blend. Soak feet for about 10 minutes, occasionally rolling your feet along the stones. Pat dry and follow up with a foot oil or cream and a foot powder.
