It’s that time of year, it’s time for creating special gifts for special women, gifts that inspire warmth and love. Here are some DIY and Young Living essential oil related gift ideas she is sure to love!
Incorporating essential oil products into your gifts will not only lift up the women in your life, but hundreds of families and small business owners will be supported as well. Let’s celebrate the women in your life with something special and let’s infuse it with Young Living essential oils to take your gift to the next level.
DIFFUSER JEWELRY
If you’re feeling a little stumped on what to get the special women in your life, jewelry is always a WIN. Diffuser jewelry, on the other hand, is a WinWin. Pair that diffuser jewelry with a bottle of essential oil and you have just STOLEN HER HEART!
Let’s break down why diffuser jewelry can be a perfect gift for any special occasion:
1) Diffuser Jewelry is a wearable item/gift that is also sentimental, especially when you can put on your FAVORITE scent.
2) Diffuser jewelry is timeless.
3) Diffuser Jewelry is appropriate for people of all ages.
4) Diffuser jewelry is suitable as a gift for any occasion.
5) Diffuser jewelry can suit any personality.
6) Diffuser jewelry is good for all body types and skin tones.
7) Diffuser jewelry is a great way to apply an oil and have it last for hours and even the entire day.
8) Diffuser jewelry makes it easy to wear oils that may make your skin sensitive to light when applied directly. For example, citrus oils, when applied topically, make your skin extra sensitive to sunlight and you should avoid exposing that area to the direct sun for 12-24 hours after application.
As you can see, it doesn’t matter who the person is, how well you know them, or what the special occasion is. Diffuser jewelry is an easy, yet perfect gift to give.
Now that we have covered that, I want to stress that giving diffuser jewelry takes your gift up about ten notches from just regular plain ol’ jewelry.
ADD AN OIL
Gift her an entire bottle of her FAVORITE oil or a few samples that are perfect for her lifestyle. With one drop of oil on her jewelry she can stay uplifted, confident, energized, and happy all day long.
FAVORITE DIFFUSER JEWELRY SHOPS
One of my favorite shops for diffuser pendants is my daughter’s shop, The Lunar Fae. Evangeline’s wire wrapped gifts are beautiful and timeless. You can visit herEtsy shop website here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheLunarFae
And Sara from The Courageous Charm has some sweet options too. You can visit her Etsy shop here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheCourageousCharm
FAVORITE OIL SUGGESTIONS
Perfect all time favorite oils to gift to your special lady with her diffuser jewelry are:
Orange & Tangerine – Calming in nature with a beautiful citrus scent.
Grapefruit – Uplifting to the spirit.
Citrus Fresh – Brings joy to children.
Joy – This floral scent brings joy to the heart.
Christmas Spirit – Great any time of year and brings on feelings of happiness.
Bergamot – Turns grief to joy.
If you’re new to oiling and don’t have a favorite diffuser jewelry shop YET, share if you’re an earrings, necklace, or bracelet kind of gal.
DIY PERFUME
Did you know perfume can be detrimental to your health? The term “fragrance” on labels can be a combination of over 300 harmful chemicals that the company doesn’t have to disclose. This is often why people get headaches when they smell synthetic perfume. It is better to play it safe and create your own perfume with natural and effective essential oils that you KNOW are safe.
Not only are these perfumes safe, but their aroma therapy can take you from feeling down and out to happy and confident in a matter of seconds.
Here are some of my favorite recipes.
Fill with alcohol when using a spray bottle. Fill with V6 carrier oil if using a roll-on bottle.
***** Here are some options to make your own perfume *****
Adjust amount of individual oils based on preferred scent.

SOOTHING SCRUBS
I know you see this DIY all the time but that is because it’s SOOO good.
Body scrubs make your skin look refreshed and rejuvenated by removing dead skin cells. Exfoliation also helps moisturize as it allows for the easy absorption of a skin moisturizer into your now healthy skin. Be sure to avoid applying too much pressure when using your scrub. Use a body scrub a few times a week.
ENERGIZING BODY SCRUB
1 cup granulated sugar
1-2 Dry OOLA tea bags – “Energy: Peppermint Rush Organic Black Tea”
¼-½ cup Jojoba Oil Pure
15 drops Orange Essential Oil
3 drops Cypress (optional)
1/4 – 1 tsp beet juice (For pink coloring – optional)
Mix the ingredients in a cute mason jar, tie a ribbon around the top, print off a nice recipe note card and gift it to someone special.
OOLA tea can be found on Amazon or through the OOLA website (affiliate link) https://amzn.to/2IRgrJV
One thing I love about OOLA is that for every bag of tea that is purchased, the company GIVES one meal to a child in need.

DIY Lavender Ylang Ylang Sugar Scrub
PICTURE + GOODIE
One of the best ways to celebrate a woman for her hard work is by taking advantage of this advanced technology to capture a precious moment and give her a memento she can cherish for a lifetime.
Print out her favorite photo or one that will melt her heart. She won’t forget this gift because it will keep reminding her of the love she has in her life. Pair the photo with an essential oil or a lip gloss. She will remember how thoughtful you were every time she smells that scent or puts on her glossy lips.
Favorite oils for her:
– Clary Sage 15 ml (#3521) – Creates a calm and relaxing environment.
– Dragon Time 15 ml (#3327) – Can help promote feelings of stability and calm during cycles of moodiness.
– Lavender 15 ml (#3575) – Lavender has as a scent that’s a wonderful blend of fresh, floral, clean, and calm. Perfect for a calming scent in the diffuser or in your daily moisturizer.

BATH BOMBS
Made with Lavender oil and Stress Away essential oil, our new essential oil bath bombs are a fun, fizzy way to unwind. We’ve used two of our most popular calming essential oils to create these relaxing bath bombs and filled them with nourishing ingredients and no unwanted additives.
Lavender essential oil—renowned for its soothing and calming aroma—makes the Lavender Calming Bath Bomb perfect for unwinding after a long day, while the Stress Relaxing Bath Bomb is a special treat thanks to the inviting, vanilla-lime scent of Stress Away oil.
These natural bath bombs are made without colorants, synthetic preservatives, parabens, or animal-derived ingredients, making them some of the best bath bombs you can get your hands on! Instead of artificial ingredients and harsh chemicals, we’ve made these vegan bath bombs with a mineral-rich formula and skin-loving ingredients, such as coconut oil and sweet almond oil. That means they’re not only fun and relaxing—they also leave skin soft, smooth, and moisturized.
Curious about the essential oils in these products? Check out the Lavender® and Stress-Away® product pages for more information on Lavender essential oil uses and Stress Away essential oil uses.

Homemade Hug Essential Oil Roller Blend
I whipped up 60-70 of these for a bridal shower but since you can personalize them with any candy melts (so many colors!) and any deco ratings (so many colors and shapes and ideas!), they’d work for not only bridal showers but for Mother’s Day, baby showers, wedding favors, party favors, hostess and teacher gifts, prizes, etc. I made a few every evening over a couple of weeks’ time. I gave a few out as essential oil infused door prizes and at Easter to my family too. I even had my grandson helping me decorate a few!
Warning – not only are they a beautiful sweet treat, they’re so addicting to create! Here is the very first batch that started my madness (without the swirl technique)…
