Soothing Essential Oil Blend - 15ml

This is a great blend of geranium, lavender and helichrysum essential oils for soothing skin and bruises. The scent is sweet and floral, predominantly that of geranium. These individual essential oils are known to have antibacterial, antimicrobial, and antiseptic properties. As such, this oil blend would help. This oil blend is great for aromatherapy as well as topical use. It can be applied to bandages to help reduce inflammation and promote skin healing. It can also be diluted in a carrier oil for direct application to the skin. So far I have used it for aromatherapy. It works well in my ultrasonic diffuser and fills the room with the sweet, lovely floral aroma. This comes in a brown glass with Euro dropper. I like that it has a circular name label on top of the cap to aid with identification when you have similarly looking glasses of essential oils in your collection. There is no mention of the country of origin on the bottle. According to the manufacturer's website, the country of manufacture for this oil is the USA. Overall, I'm pretty with this oil blend. It smells great and works well. I would recommend giving it a try.

I find that the Nature's Fusions 100% Pure and Natural Essential Oil Blends are great for those looking to use them in a functional manner, not just for scenting- but depending on your preference it can certainly be used for the latter too. I have a few formulas by Natures Fusion and some I wanted for their topical benefit, and some for the scent profile. I had taken a look at the essential oils in this "soothing" blend (geranium, lavender, helichrysum) , and decided that I wanted it more for the scent than for addressing "bruises, bleeding, and enlarged veins". However, if I decide I want to mix it with a carrier oil and use it for that, I will let you know if it helped or not. I have bulging veins and slight bruising from them on my legs that I address with compression socks, but maybe one of these days I will try using this on them. I use "Soothing", just for the pleasant scent. I find it lovely smelling. I primarily smell the geranium, which I like a lot. Just a hint of the other two components. So I would say that you intend to use this for scenting, then you must like geranium first and foremost. Maybe the other scents come through, but my sniffer just seems to pick up on the geranium. More specifically, a slight rose. Rose Geranium, I think. I sometimes make a bug deterrent using these exact oils (plus a few others), and so I may use it for that too. Nice to make a spray and apply it to camping equipment, clothes, and just all around. Of course use in a diffuser, in cleaning supplies, a few drops in a candle base, etc.. whatever you want.

I got the Soothing blend and having worked with essential oils a lot, I can tell this is a good quality blend that hasn't been cut with cheaper ingredients, inferior oils, or tampered with. The Soothing blend has only three oils: geranium, lavender, and helichrysum. Companies will often put a higher concentration of the cheapest essential oil in first to cut corners but this company didn't do that. Lavender is a much cheaper oil to grow and produce than helichrysum. However, the Soothing blend is predominantly helichrysum which impressed me because real, pure helichrysum is hard to come by without paying exorbitant prices. And this is GOOD helichrysum! The scent may be a bit strong and peculiar for those who don't care for the very singular aroma of helichrysum. It's a heavy scent that's a mix of floral and medicinal. I'm not super keen on that type of scent but the skin benefits of helichrysum are out of this world and so I use a drop of this in my facial serums and one drop in a 1 ounce bottle of serum goes a long way. Not only does it do wonders for my less than clear complexion, it's subtle enough when diluted to make you feel very fresh faced and clean. It takes on a crisp, clean but feminine aroma. I would 100% recommend this brand for topical essential oils in a market where loads of companies are selling low quality or downright damaging "essential oil" products due to a misuse of that term to hide synthetic fragrance chemicals.

I'm going to use this oil for bruises and some eczema and other skin irritations, but I believe I will have to cut it with an unscented carrier oil like vitamin E or coconut oil. The smell is extremely strong - even just a drop can be smelled a room away - and it's not pleasant. Not unpleasant, exactly, just very overpowering.

This essential oil blend is going to be an awesome oil for anyone to use combined with a carrier oil and applied topically to scrapes, cuts, stretch marks, varicose veins or burns. It contains lavender, helichrysum, and geranium, all of which have healing qualities for skin, and some antibacterial qualities as well. I myself have had great success with geranium oil in healing a bad cut to my knuckle after receiving seven stitches and needing fresh skin to grow, so that I might bend my finger as normal once again. The surgeon literally did know if my finger would bend again after he fixed me up in the ER, so every day I used exercises and applied the geranium oil, and now I don't even notice my scarred finger at all, it healed so nicely. This particular oil blend only smells like geranium to me, which is similar to a rose scent, but not quite. I would love to smell more of the lavender in there, so I have deducted one star from my rating. Otherwise, this product is wonderful and the price fits.
