Note: Not all essential oil brands are the same, and you get what you pay for. If you expect to achieve results similar to those described in this testimonial, then ensure that you are using oils from pesticide-free plants. Also, the brand should use 100% pure, high-quality essential oils that do not contain any synthetic additives. Do your own research or ask a trusted friend to find a brand that is reputable. Buyer beware.


Recently, I was shopping with my mother, who is 86 years young and my sister. My mother started her usual deep cough which is very hard to listen to because it is a dry cough. I had just gotten the RC blend and hadn't used it yet myself. I told her to rub it on her chest. She never coughed again the rest of the time I was with her, which was for 4 hours.

My sister was having trouble with the smells in the clothing store we were in that same day and thought she would not be able to stay there because she was itching so much. I told her to rub RC on the bridge of her nose, under her nostrils, and inhale it for several breathes. Within minutes she asked what that was because it worked. She had no more problems.

Over Christmas when mom stayed at my sister's house who has 2 dogs, she was bothered by the dog hair with sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. Again she just kept inhaling and rubbing on the RC blend several times a day and had no more problems with her symptoms.
