When people ask me where to start with essential oils, I always say: start with doterra lavender. It’s the essential oil MVP. Whether you’re diffusing it at bedtime, calming skin irritation, or sprinkling a few drops into cookie dough (yes, that’s a thing!), doTERRA Lavender does it all—and smells amazing while doing it.
Why You Want doTerra Lavender in Your Life
Lavender oil is one of the most versatile and beloved essential oils for a reason. This isn’t just hype—it’s history. The Egyptians used it for mummification and perfume, and the Romans bathed in it. Fast forward a couple thousand years and it’s still going strong as a natural go-to for calming the body and mind.
Here’s why I swear by it:
- Aroma Therapy All-Star: Lavender has a gentle, floral aroma that promotes a peaceful environment. If your brain is running faster than a toddler in pajamas after bedtime, this one’s for you.
- Bedtime BFF: Add a few drops to your pillow, bedding, or feet before bed. Or pop it in your diffuser to say goodnight to stress.
- Skin Soother: Whether it’s a bug bite, sunburn, or random rash (life with kids, right?), lavender calms occasional skin discomfort and promotes healing.
- Mental Chill Pill: Take it internally (just one drop in water or tea!) to support mental relaxation and help wind down naturally.*
- Culinary Twist: Use a tiny bit in desserts or marinades. A drop of lavender in lemon cookies? Chef’s kiss.
Lavender Touch: The On-the-Go Calmer
Sometimes I want lavender without needing to mix or dilute anything, especially when I’m wrangling kids or juggling groceries and sanity. That’s where Lavender Touch comes in.
It’s pre-diluted with fractionated coconut oil in a roller bottle, making it safe and simple to apply directly to:
- Temples and neck during stressful moments
- Pulse points for a grounding, calming effect
- Feet or spine at bedtime for kids (especially the ones who suddenly have 47 questions at bedtime)
This is a diaper bag must-have. Or purse. Or desk drawer. Or glove box. Basically, everywhere you exist.
