Simply Earth has just launched a brand new product — Blue Tansy Essential Oil!
Mainly cultivated in Morocco, Blue Tansy is a member of the chamomile family and has a sweet, herbaceous scent. The plant itself produces yellow flowers, but during the distillation process a chemical called chamazulene is created — giving the oil a pretty blue hue!
In the past, Blue Tansy oil has been used to treat sores, fevers, rheumatism, intestinal worms, and other digestive problems. Today, it’s typically used for its skin soothing/brightening ability and calming properties. Disclosure: Product was received for review. Post may contain affiliate/referral links.
I was recently sent a bottle of Blue Tansy Essential Oil, along with other supplies to create a skin-nourishing body oil. Let’s check it out!
While the star of the show this time is Blue Tansy oil, I was also sent a few other oils/supplies to help create the body oil.
Organic Blue Tansy Essential Oil
As mentioned earlier, Blue Tansy has a sweet, herbaceous scent and is commonly used for its skin soothing/brightening ability and calming properties. It’s also blue in color!
Amber Colored Plastic Bottle
A 2-ounce plastic bottle was provided for holding your finished product.
Body Oil Base
The body oil base above contains a blend of jojoba oil, almond oil, camellia seed oil, meadowfoam oil, and castor oil. Both bottles will be combined with the provided essential oils to create my nourishing body oil blend.
Simply Earth Supreme Peppermint Essential Oil
Peppermint Essential Oil is one of my favorites to have on hand thanks to its ability to deter spiders and other creepy crawlies. Other benefits include aiding digestion, relaxing muscles, soothing skin irritation, easing seasonal discomfort, soothing headaches, and more.
Simply Earth Geranium Essential Oil
Derived from the leaves of the geranium plant, this oil was once used by ancient Egyptians to treat tumors and then by Europeans to treat an array of conditions including dysentery, hemorrhoids, menstrual conditions, and diarrhea. Today, it is often used to promote hormone balance, soothe the skin, reduce the appearance of redness, detoxify, and many other uses.
Simply Earth Frankincense Essential Oil
Frankincense has been used throughout history, with its most notable appearances in the Bible and in ancient Egypt. Back in the day, it was mostly used for incense, treating wounds, and easing arthritis. These days we often use this spicy/woody oil to help with promoting immunity, aiding in digestion, supporting joint function, improving sleep, and more.
Making the body oil couldn’t have been easier! — First, I removed the cap from the amber colored bottle and set it aside.
Next, I added the specified amount of Blue Tansy oil.
(See, it really is blue! 😀 )
I then added the rest of the essential oils, in the amounts specified for the recipe. All required just 10 drops or less.
Lastly, I poured all of the body oil base into the bottle with the essential oils.
Homemade Blue Tansy body oil complete! 🙂
Simply Earth’s new Blue Tansy Essential Oil is a great addition to their (and my!) ever-growing collection of 100% natural oils. Incorporating it into a homemade body oil was super easy and the final product was perfect. — I’m not typically a fan of single-origin floral scents, but the addition of peppermint & frankincense helped to even it out. 🙂 — If you’d like to purchase your own Blue Tansy Essential Oil, make sure to use coupon code “WENDYROSE10” at checkout to save 10%!
