Did you know perfume can be detrimental to your health?
The term “fragrance” on labels can be a combination of over 300 harmful chemicals that the company doesn’t have to disclose. This is often why people get headaches when they smell synthetic perfume. I ditched my perfume years ago for safe, all-natural essential oil perfume that I know will only benefit my body and not harm it.
It is better to play it safe and create your own perfume with natural and effective essential oils that you KNOW are safe. Not only are these perfumes safe, but their aroma therapy can take you from feeling down and out to happy and confident in a matter of seconds.
I began my essential oil journey because I was looking for oils to help support my emotional well-being; little did I know how much I would learn in the process about the toxic chemicals I had been exposing my body to. I am so grateful for the knowledge to do better and also to smell amazing with all-natural, plant-based fragrance on my skin.
