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.


On the day of my surprise 30th birthday party I found ringworm on the bottom of my feet.

In my rush to leave for what I thought was a fishing trip with my kids (and out of habit) I grabbed my tube of generic brand of lotrimin AF. I applied it and then read that I needed to continue this twice a day for two weeks!

I am a mother/stepmother of 5 kids, all who are with my husband and me full time. I don't have the time to think of such things consistently for two whole weeks!

On our way to our fishing trip I remembered a testimonial of Lavender oil being used for ringworm. I cleaned my feet when I got home and applied Lavender essential oil. I did this twice per day. The third day it was gone!!

I went ahead and applied again just to be safe and it has never returned!!
