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.


A couple of summers ago I sat on my friend's porch stoop and encountered a bee. He did what any bee would do in the situation, and stung the daylights out of me! I remembered reading that the Purification oil blend was good for stings, and I have such faith in the oils that I had no doubt it would work for me.

I was just curious how fast it would work. So I grabbed the oil and put a tiny drop on my finger. I also started a stopwatch at the same moment I applied the oil to my painful behind. Four seconds was all it took for the discomfort to go away, and it never came back like it does with other remedies like baking soda or herbal mixtures.

I was elated to be free of any discomfort, and floored by how fast it happened!
