Essential Oils are said to have a lot of benefits but in order for them to truly work for you, you need to know how to use them properly. To be honest, I have only used essential oils in diffusers and DIY air fresheners and well, that’s about it. Also, I have only used a couple of essential oils as let’s face it – they can be pretty expensive.

I have always been eager to learn more ways in which I can incorporate various essential oils and use them in and around my home. I mean, if you can reap the benefits of chemical-free products and avoid all the toxic smells by using essential oils, why not use them to our advantage right? So when I was approached by Simply Earth’s team to try out their subscription box, I was absolutely thrilled!

So how does Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box work?

Each month you will get 4 full size 100% pure essential oils + extras to make 6 easy recipes. Your box will have everything you need to make your home natural that is designed carefully by their aromatherapy team. Each month is a fun new theme. Plus, you’ll get tips and tricks on various other ways to use your oils.

The best part is that their box costs only $39! Plus when you subscribe for the first time, you also get a Bonus Box along with with your regular Recipe Box that.

I would say even if you are a novice or just starting out with essential oils just the way I am, Simply Earth is a fun way of exploring things. Everything comes in crystal clear directions on how to use them and how to create your own blends or recipes to use around your home.

Now Let’s take a peek at this month’s Essential Oil Box.

This month’s theme is ‘Face Care’ so I was more than excited to see what was included in the box as I’m always looking for natural ways to improve my skincare routine.

 *Spoiler alert – I am already obsessed with it!

Unboxing Simply Earth’s Recipe Box

 As soon as I got the package in the mail, I was so excited to open the box! Since this was my first time, I got their regular box as well as the Bonus Box (as I mentioned above, the Bonus Box is included along with your first Box)

Firstly let’s see what was included in the Bonus Box –

1. 4 oz. Coconut Oil (100% Pure carrier oil)

2. 4 oz. Almond Oil (100% Purecarrier oil)

3. Cold Pressed Coconut Oil

4. Beeswax – 2 oz pack

5. Six roll-on bottles and six bottles (to store the blends that you create)

Coming to August’s Essential Oil Recipe Box, these were the oils that were included to help you create your clear, glowing and beautiful skin –

 

The box also came with 6 easy recipes -like a face scrub recipe, a moisturizing face cream recipe, a feel good morning diffuser and more. Along with this, they have given a couple of helpful tips in ways which you can use these essential oils.

Of course, the next step after opening their box was to try out the recipes that were included in the box. The recipes are super simple (they are so damn easy – you can literally make them in under 2 minutes) and come with clear instructions.

This Rosemary Facial steam is one of my favorites out of the six recipes since it is so easy and instantly makes you feel sooo good. Just a drop of Rosemary essential oil in hot water and you can relax and enjoy the steam for 5-10 minutes. It smells divine and makes you feel relaxed. Can I just say I’m hooked?!

The box even came with information about next month’s theme which is going to be Soap Making and has included the list of essential oils that will be included. This is great as you know what to expect in the next month.

I must say Simply Earth’s team does an absolutely FANTASTIC job of educating their audience on how to use these essential oils. Their timely emails, videos, as well as blog posts on their website, are truly helpful and knowledgable.

Plus like I mentioned the box will only cost you $39. If you were to buy everything included in this box from the big companies, it could easily cost you well over $100. The reason the company is able to keep its prices low is by selling directly to their customers. Plus they also make sure to test every oil for purity by visit the farms their oils come from themselves.

Now if that is not enough for you, I don’t know what is. As for me, I’m highly impressed with this company. You know I won’t recommend something that I don’t believe in or something that I won’t use for myself. 

If you would love to try out this box for yourselves, don’t forget to use my special code – SMILINGNOTESFREE to get a free $40 gift card along with your Recipe & Bonus Box (Don’t forget to type in the code as without that code, you won’t get your gift card). I bet you will be as obsessed with it as I am!
