Why These Ingredients Work

Fir Needle Essential Oil

Fir needle essential oil has a sharp, fresh scent the cleaves through brain fog like butter. It’s uplifting, clarifying, and ameliorates fatigue making it the perfect oil to use when you’re losing momentum.

Peppermint Essential Oil

Cooling and refreshing, peppermint acts like a “slap in the face” when you’re suddenly dragging your feet. Smelling peppermint helps you pull through without relying too much on caffeine.

Rosemary Essential Oil

Known to reduce the stress hormone cortisol in just a few minutes, rosemary essential oil is also a great oil for keeping you focused on less than exciting tasks. It also helps you retain information which is probably important if you’re experiencing brain fog.

As an added benefit, all of these essential oils together formulate a rather effective remedy for cuts, scrapes, burns, blemishes, ingrown hairs, and bug bites.
