Tis' the Season for Giving the Gift of Soap!

Oh, how I love the holidays! Since I live in the country , mountainous region of Virginia, I truly appreciate the changing views of each season. However, when I think about soaps and the fall/winter holidays, certain scents and fragrances come to mind for well being.

Peppermint Essential Oil : The health benefits of peppermint oil include its ability to treat indigestion, respiratory problems, headache, nausea, fever, stomach and bowel spasms, as well as for pain relief. Due to the presence of menthol, menthone and menthyl esters, peppermint and peppermint oil find wide applications in the manufacturing of soap, shampoo, cigarettes, toothpaste, chewing gum, tea and ice cream.

Peppermint is a cross between watermint and spearmint and is native to Europe. Historically, the herb has been known for its medicinal uses, and its impressively long history often gives it the prestigious title as the world’s oldest medicine.

Unlike many other herbs and essential oils, numerous health benefits of peppermint and peppermint oil have been studied and proved by the scientific community. As a result, peppermint oil is also sold in the form of capsules and tablets, and is even prescribed by doctors of alternative and modern medicine.

Peppermint oil can also be used as a flavoring agent. You will find very few people who find peppermint unsuitable to their palate. Peppermint oil contains numerous minerals and nutrients including manganese, iron, magnesium, calcium, folate, potassium, and copper. It also contains omega-3 fatty acids, Vitamin A and Vitamin C.

Spruce Essential Oil:

Spruce Essential Oil is able to release blockages and open the respiratory and nasal passages, it has been used historically in hot spring baths, saunas, and massage. In addition to balancing the body, Spruce Essential Oil pushes through emotional and spiritual blockages, allowing the truth to make itself known. Feelings of peace, balance, and a sense of being comfortable in one’s own skin can all be attributed to spruce.

Spruce Essential Oil is not merely magnificent for mind and spirit; its physical effects on the body are nothing short of incredible. Spruce invigorates and stimulates the entire body, which may increase circulation and in turn ease the debilitating effects of rheumatism.

Sweet Orange!!!

There is something about oranges that makes you wanna smile. Now, add some sweetness to that orange and you got one happy gal. Catalina Crush, a flagship soap at Naturally Tressed (www.naturallytressed.com) has caused an uproar of happiness. It is pleasing to know that some handmade soap can bring about such joy. Infused with sweet orange essential oil, there are some other benefits to Sweet Orange that you may enjoy:

Other Orange Essential Oil Uses

Orange Essential Oil also has a number of industrial and household uses.
It is used to add orange flavour to various food products such as beverages, desserts, biscuits, chocolates, sweets and bakery items. Industrially, it is used in soaps, body lotions, face creams, room sprays/air fresheners and deodorants.

The D-limonene in Sweet Orange essential oil is an extremely effective insect repellent. Wipe or spray it wherever pests come into your house: cracks, around windows and doors. It can also be safely used in your pantry to repel moths, worms and ants instead of using poisonous substances.

Warnings and Precautions :

Orange Essential Oil shows photo-toxicity, do not apply before going out in the sun.
If ingested in excess quantity, it can result in vomiting and nausea. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use essential oils only under the guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner.
