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.
As we were walking into our house, I don't know what happened, but my daughter looked up at me in a panic. She showed me her arm with a horrified look on her face and said, "Mommy, I need my oils!"
I picked her up and sat on the couch with her and asked her, "What do you need?" She grabbed Lavender out of the bag. I poured a few drops on her cut and held my hand over her for about 15 seconds until she moved her arm. The bleeding completely stopped.
I was able to clean all the blood off her arm and then cleaned my hands a little more with Lemon oil. I asked her if she needed anything else and she said, "I need my Rose!" So we topped off what was left of her skin with Young Living Rose Ointment. She knows what she needs and she's only a tiny little girl! I'm so proud of her.
I am amazed at the wonderful things that Lavender oil can do. I have used it to stop my own nosebleeds, for a lip gloss, to calm down, to help my daughter sleep, to soften my hair a little bit. It just goes on and on. Rose Ointment is also amazing. I've used it to repair cuticles and to make my nails grow. When I cut my daughter's nails I use that on her cuticles as well.
I just had to share this story both because it's adorable.
