Lavender and Bergamot Essential Oil Recipe

"Throw kindness around like confetti"

I love the image this saying brings to my mind... but some days I feel down and not really in a confetti throwing mood if you know what I mean.

Essential oils can help uplift emotions, especially the lovely bergamot essential oil.

A shower and some bergamot foaming body wash can really make a difference. I may not be ready to throw confetti once I get out of the shower, but I am always in better spirits.

The foaming bottle lets out luxurious foam soap that is not only wonderful to use, but also cost effective because it produces lots of soap from 1/2 tablespoon of castile soap.

I like the mini foaming bottles because they are easy to handle in the shower and it lasts about 1-2 weeks so I can always keep my foaming body wash fresh. Place the bottle in the shower or take this recipe with you when traveling.
