Essential oils shouldn't be used undiluted on the skin as they may cause irritation.

Essential oils are diverse and some of them have various healing properties.

The three Essential Oils you cannot do without . . .

Everybody should keep lavender, tea-tree and peppermint oils in their home, as you can use them for so many things.

Lavender - is an anti-bacterial, as well as a calmative.

Tea-tree - can be used as an anti-septic.

Peppermint - is good for clearing the passages when you have a cold or if you suffer from sinusitis. Peppermint is excellent for cuts, and drawing the heat out of a wound or sprain.

NB: Do not use homeopathic medication in conjunction with            peppermint oil, as it takes away the effectiveness of the homeopathic medication.

Aromatherapy and animals: Put a drop of lavender oil on the back of your dog's neck, and brush it in to keep the fleas away.

Tips

• Instead of using a roll-on deodorant, an oil mixture can be made up, so as not  to clog pores and the lymph nodes, which clean the body.
• Instead of a cream-based moisturiser, an oil blend of your favourite fragrances can be made up in a carrier oil for deep and natural moisterisation.
• Soak in the bath with lavender oil, as it has everything in it and with so many properties. For a woman, add sandalwood, for men, add ylang ylang.
