4 New Essential Oils from Neal’s Yard Remedies

Neal's Yard Remedies | NYR Organic | introduces 4 new eseential oils, rose absolute, immortelle, niaouli and lime

Neal’s Yard Remedies introduces 4 new essential oils. Organic Immortelle, Organic Lime, Organic Niaouli, and Rose Absolute are now available in the USA.

Neal’s Yard Remedies 100% pure essential oils are extracted from natural, wild-harvested and organically grown flowers, leaves, bark, and berries. They have over 35 years experience in building supplier relationships, and they oversee every aspect, from the soil they grow in, through how they are harvested, processed and bottled.

For inhalation or a steam facial, add 4-6 drops of essential oils to a bowl of steaming, warm water. Place a towel over your head and inhale the vapor for a few moments. Enjoy the room fragrancing and mood benefits of vaporization through the use of a diffuser. For a bath or shower, add a few drops to a carrier oil, milk or shower gel and swirl in your bath. Add essential oils to a base massage oil to ease tired muscles, and to relax and energize.

Immortelle

Organic Immortelle is also known as helichrysum, and comes from Bosnia. The smell is heady, honey-like with a warm and spicy undertone. The key action is balancing, cooling, soothing, and regenerative. It works well in blends and can be combined with geranium, lavender, chamomile, citrus and rose. It works well in massage oils, skin lotions and bath oils. Add 3-4 drops to a diffuser for a calming ambience.

Lime

Organic Lime essential oil comes from Sri Lanka and the key action is energizing, toning and astringent. The aroma is fruity and fresh. Used in a diffuser, the fresh scent is uplifing. It blends well with orange and peppermint. Avoid use on skin 12 hours before sun exposure. Lime is used in Neal’s Yard Remedies Peppermint and Lime Roll On Deodorant and the Deliciously Ella Rose, Lime & Cucumber Moisturizer and Facial Wash.

Niaouli

Organic Niaouli comes from Madagascar and has a clarifying and fresh aroma. The key action is cleansing. Think of it as a gentler version of tea tree oil. It can be used in an all over massage oil or in specific areas to fight infection, relieve pain or improve circulation. Excellent in a diffuser with lemon or pine. Niaouli is found in Neal’s Yard Remedies’ Organic Defence Hand Spray and Aromatherapy Blend.

Rose Absolute

Rose Absolute comes from Turkey, where the delicate flowers are picked early in the morning. Rose is another balancing oil, with an exquisite, sweet, floral fragrance. You may be surprised by the fragrance if you have primarily been exposed to synthetic rose. It is frequently used in skin care, massage, bath and room fragrancing.

Rose enhances overall well-being. Try blending it with bergamot, chamomile, clary sage, or patchouli. Add it to a base oil with geranium, and orange essential oils for an uplifting body massage. You will find Rose Absolute in Neal’s Yard Remedies Rehydrating Rose collection and Rose Body Cream.

Back to School with Neal’s Yard Remedies

Back to School | Neal's Yard Remedies | NYR Organic

Everywhere you look you see signs of back to school. One of the things I loved about working in a school was the brand new start and completion of each school year, as opposed to most jobs in the business world that have no yearly beginning or end. Back to school seems to come faster each summer. Neal’s Yard Remedies will start your kids off on the right foot with some perfect items for your kindergarten kiddo’s backpack or a college kid’s care package.

Back to School | Neal's Yard Remedies | NYR Organic

Students of All Ages

Organic Defence Hand Spray is perfect for keeping in a desk and using before a snack, and small enough to carry in a backpack. This purifying blend of organic essential oils with witch hazel, helps protect and keep hands naturally clean and fresh.

Eliminate test anxiety with Study Remedies to Roll. Clove, orange, rosemary, bergamot, grapefruit, lavender, spearmint, and basil essential oils are blended into a sunflower oil base. The rollerball container makes application easy. Roll a few times on pulse points to enhance mental clarity and support intense concentration.

Dry, chapped lips will not be a problem with Organic Lip Formula Shea Nut & Rosehip. Perfect for the desk or backpack.



Middle School and Up

With a fresh, invigorating, gender-neutral scent, Roll on Deodorant Peppermint And Lime will keep your student fresh after gym class or sports.

Lavender and Tea Tree Body Powder will keep feet fresh after sports with purifying tea tree, calming lavender and organic corn starch.

Sooth aches and pains with Arnica Cream following over-exertion. Arnica Cream contains 10% organic arnica tincture and 10% organic arnica macerated oil in a soothing cream base, suitable for all skin types.

College Care Packages

College students aren’t known for healthy eating habits. Multi Vitamin and Mineral Support won’t necessarily make up for living on Ramen noodles, but may ease your mind about your student’s diet.

The energizing blend of spearmint and rosemary in the Aromatherapy Blend Focus will help your student tackle a difficult study session. Used in an aromatherapy diffuser you won’t even need to worry about forgetting to turn it off, as they all have auto shut-off, and may improve the atmosphere of a smelly dorm room.

Citrus Shower Gel will start your student’s day off with the zesty scent of organic lemon, lime and grapefruit essential oils, so he or she will be ready for anything.

Whatever you’re shopping for, consider whether it’s made with safe ingredients or toxic chemicals. Today’s children are exposed to so many more toxins than we were. Let’s reduce their exposure where ever we can.

Here’s to the best-ever school year for you and your kids!

Neal’s Yard Remedies and MADE SAFE®

NYR Organic, Neal's Yard Remedied, Made Safe® certification,

Health is the most important thing to Neal’s Yard Remedies. When formulating and making products, they follow the precautionary principle – which means not using anything they believe could cause you, or the planet harm. Wouldn’t it be great if there was an easy way for consumers to know whether the products they purchase contain chemicals known to harm human health and the environment? MADE SAFE®, an independent third-party verification that screens products for known toxic chemicals harmful to human health, will do just that.

Neal's Yard Remedies, NYR Organic, Made Safe®, Frankincense Intense, Wild Rose Beauty Balm

Neal’s Yard Remedies is the first (and only, as of July 2017) direct sales skincare and aromatherapy company to achieve Made Safe® certification for a variety of products. MADE SAFE® is America’s first certification to screen out known toxic chemicals in consumer products including personal care, cleaning and more. The Frankincense Intense™ Collection and Wild Rose Beauty Balm are certified made without known carcinogens, endocrine disruptors, reproductive toxins, or other chemicals found to harm human health, and now carry the Made Safe® seal. Neal’s Yard Remedies currently has eleven products Certified as Made Safe®

What You Won’t Find in Neal’s Yard Remedies Products

NO PARABENS – linked to estrogen overproduction

NO SYNTHETIC FRAGRANCES – many contain synthetic chemicals that are harmful to health

NO GMO INGREDIENTS – not enough is known about the long-term implications

NO animal testing – unnecessary and cruel

NO SILICONES – coat the skin, impeding its natural function

NO PHTHALATES – reported to have toxic impact on human and animal life

NO NANO – not enough is known about the long-term implications

NO MINERAL OILS – derived from petroleum, have a tendency to block the skin

NO EDTA – doesn’t readily biodegrade

NO PROPYLENE GLYCOL – derived from petroleum

NO CARBOMER – derived from petroleum

NO DEA – associated with known carcinogens

NO ACRYLATES – derived from petroleum 
NO BHT – linked to breathing and lung impairment

This “no” list makes these products more difficult to formulate, and also makes Neal’s Yard Remedies products special.

Neal’s Yard Remedies has been pioneering safer products for years, and is committed to transparency and ethics. MADE SAFE® certification reinforces that commitment, and is a huge honor. This certification is rigorous, scientific, and most products on the market today wouldn’t pass the criteria necessary. Learn more about MADE SAFE® and check out the MADE SAFE® certified Neal’s Yard Remedies products.

Top 10 Benefits of Joining Neal’s Yard Remedies

Neal's Yard Remedies, NYR Organic, Join my Neal's Yard Remedies Team, Join Neal's Yard Remedies

Joining Neal’s Yard Remedies as an Independent Consultant could be the best decision you will ever make. I truly never planned to do direct sales when I ordered out my business kit. In fact, I signed up without ever trying the products. That brings us to reason number one.

Join Neal's Yard Remedies, NYR Organic, Join my team

  1. Low cost business kit with huge retail value. I love a good bargain, and the Neal’s Yard Remedies business kit is a pretty awesome value. Not only do you receive a great assortment of full-sized products, but it includes everything you need to get your business off the ground. It includes a free website, catalogs, and order forms.
  2. Discount on personal products. Following up on the last point, is the personal discount. I really love double dipping on the discount when my favorite products go on sale. I sometimes get my favorites for close to half price. Now that’s being a smart shopper!
  3. The extra income. What would extra income mean for you? How would you feel if you had the extra money to take the family on a well-deserved vacation, sign the kids up for a sports camp or music lessons, or get that smart TV your husband has been eyeing at Costco? If you are in a holistic business, how would offering organic products to your clients enhance your business?
  4. Flexible hours. Whether you have young children, are a college student, have another job or are a retiree, with Neal’s Yard Remedies, you really can work your own schedule. I know. Lots of companies say they have flexible hours, but if they have monthly minimums or targeted goals you need to reach, it may not be all that flexible. Neal’s Yard Remedies does not have monthly minimums. To remain a consultant in good standing you simply need to place an order of $100 retail at least once every 12 months.
  5. Work from home. You wouldn’t believe my work wardrobe. Yes, I’m often still in my pajamas when I get online in the morning. No, I can’t wear pajamas to a vendor event, but my work wardrobe can be pretty minimal. I also don’t put many miles on the car.
  6. Incentives and recognition from the company. Believe it or not, everyone isn’t motivated by money. I know, it’s kind of shocking in one way. Would it make any difference to you if I said you will make X amount of dollars this month when you sell $500, OR you can earn this super cute tote bag with a darling “save the bumble bees” logo on it for selling $500 this month? Sure, you get the money either way, but there is something about being able to earn that extra prize that is so motivating! If leadership is something you are thinking about, there is plenty of room in Neal’s Yard Remedies. How would it feel to walk across the stage at conference and be recognized for your achievements? Is travel your dream? It’s possible to earn a fabulous trip by meeting your goals.
  7. Learn business skills. I’ve learned so much since I became a Neal’s Yard Remedies consultant. I love sharing what I learn with others. I’ve learned about facials and skincare, aromatherapy and essential oils, social media, and so much more. There’s free training in your back office and I can pretty much guarantee the more you learn, the more you will fall in love with this company.
  8. Friendships and relationships. Pampering workshops, Facebook events, networking, being a part of something important, meeting like-minded women at conferences, and chatting with interested people at vendor events all lead to forming new friendships.
  9. Tax benefits. Speak with your tax advisor to see how you may benefit from running your own business.
  10. Change the world. If you don’t think companies should be allowed to sell products with ingredients that are known to harm human health, animals and the planet, vote with your dollars. Join me and let’s change the world, one blue bottle at a time.

3 Ways Essential Oils Can Help Sell Your Home

Home staging, real estate staging, bluebottlepassion.com, essential oils

Several weeks of air-conditioning a closed up home and two nights in a row of BLTs made me super happy to open the windows today on this cool, summer morning. For anyone trying to sell a home, potential stale smells can cause a bit of panic when someone schedules a showing. Essential oils can come to the rescue and leave your home buyer ready.

essential oils can help sell your home, home, essential oils, home staging, real estate staging

Many years ago I had a brief career in real estate. Back then no one had any idea what an essential oil was, let alone a diffuser. The only option was smothering odors with synthetic room fragrances, or placing a waxy freshener out in the open; a red flag something nasty was being covered up. It was usually a case of the cure being as bad as or worse than the pet odors, smoke, mildew, vacant or just musty old smell.

Scent connects with the brain where emotion, decision making and learning take place. I’m not saying the right fragrance will have home buyers lining up to sign on the dotted line, but a bad-smelling home is major turn-off and will send buyers running. Who hasn’t read that baking a pan of cookies or a loaf of bread before a showing is a good idea?

Of course if you are selling your home it needs to be clean. Strong smelling all purpose cleaners can be just as big a turnoff. Clean with naturally fragranced products. Add a couple of drops of lemon or a citrus essential oil to wipe down counters.

For carpets and fabric, you can add some essential oils to baking soda and sprinkle it around, then vacuum. To make a room spray combine 20-30 drops of essential oils to 2 tablespoons each vodka and mineral water and transfer to a sterilized atomizer. A blend of lime, lemon, bergamot and mandarin creates a zesty, uplifing and deodorizing fragrance for everyday use.

Run a diffuser to cleanse and fragrance the air before a showing. Avoid the overpowering, heavier floral scents like ylang ylang, and stick with citrus blends. For a persistent odor try a cleansing fragrance like pine or lemongrass.

Check out all the great essential oils and diffusers Neal’s Yard Remedies has to offer. Let me know which essential oils help sell your home, or just make it a more pleasant place to live!
