E-Scential Blends

The following prepared blends recipes are some of my favorites. If you would like to create them, I have included the ratio of essential oils that will go into the blend. For example, if you want to make 40 ml of the Antiseptic Air Spray Blend, you will mix 5 ml Eucalyptus, 10 ml each of Lavender and Tea Tree, and 15 ml of Lemon together. This is your base blend.
