UPDATE: Thanks for participating, everyone! The winner is – Nicole Galland!
Scent can be so powerful, changing our moods and awakening memories – but sometimes it can be dangerous too, namely when it’s coming from a toxic blend of chemicals vaguely labeled as “fragrance”. Essential oils make it easy to avoid the bad stuff and get even more benefits than simply pleasing scents – promoting skin healing and even killing germs. It’s a no-brainer to ditch the synthetic perfumes and room sprays and switch to healthy products like RubyBlaise Essentials aromatherapy mists.

RubyBlaise Essentials are multi-purpose, hand-blended sprays made with 100% pure essential oils like lime, lavender, bergamot and vanilla. I got to try a set myself and I’m now officially addicted to “Happy Mist” – there’s just something about grapefruit that brightens my day. I especially love the fact that RubyBlaise sprays are just the right concentration of scent – enough to give subtle fragrance to a room, but not too strong to spray directly onto your skin.

My sister-in-law is a massage therapist and she loves using relaxing scents while she works. I’d love for her to try these! I’m sure the Stree-Free and Calm mists would be the most useful, but the others are probably great, too!

I love the disinfectant & calming qualities of lavender – in the winter I leave glass bowls of water over my heating vents with a few drops to moisturize the air and I also put it in mop water with murphy’s oil soap to freshen the house.

The scent of grapefruit has an extraordinary effect on me – I have a history of serious depression, and grapefruit is one of the few things that actually gives me an immediate lift. I’m always so grateful to have a chance to surround myself with it!

I use essential oils as perfume. I work at a spa that uses only all natural products. As a rule employees aren’t allowed to wear synthetic perfume because it’s really noticeable compared to the natural aromas. I love it so much that I wear them even when I’m not working!

I use essential oils in my own lampe berger mixes, and I also spray them onto the filter of my air cleaner.

I’ve recently been doing a lot of research on aromatherapy. I use them for cuts, sinus infections, seasonal allergies, massage oil and to fragrance my home. The more I learn the more I love my oils!

I use essential oils as flea repellants for my two dogs and also as diffusing oils in my bedroom. I think the Citrus and Happy versions sound the most appealing.

I adore essential oils! I use aromatherapy for stress relief, headaches, and relaxation. My favorite blend is peppermint and lavender. I also use a blend of lavender and bergamot for spot treatment of pimples! Being a teacher with the end of the school year rapidly approaching, I feel I will really make use of the Stress- Free Mist!
