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.


My four year old son has a lot of sensitivities. He got into a lotion that used to work for him, but it caused an allergic reaction, and developed an itchy rash on his stomach where he applied it.

So I mixed a few drops each of Lavender oil and the Melrose oil blend into some Coconut oil. Then I applied it to his rash. Fortunately it quickly relieved the itch.

My son's skin cleared up, and is now baby soft and smooth again!
