A peek inside!
An info card (printed on the back of one of the recipe cards) revealed February’s theme: “Soap”. It listed this month’s featured oils, along with any included extras. It also provided a few safety tips for each oil/blend.

- True Love Room Spray
- Heart of Gold
- Sunshine Scrub Bar
- Love Birds Diffuser Blend
- Glitter & Gold Shower Steamer
- First Date Roll-On
A sheet of pre-printed stickers was also included for labeling your creations.
February’s oils included:
- Copaiba
- Sage
- Citrus Burst
- Love
Simply Earth Copaiba Essential Oil
Copaiba is a sap-like substance (oleoresin) collected from the trunk of CFopaifera trees. Native to South America, it’s mainly produced in Brazil, Venezuela, and Columbia. When used in essential oil form, copaiba is great for reducing the appearance of blemishes, detoxifying, supporting respiration, calming, and more.
(Every Simply Earth oil is printed with a Simply Pure Promise™ that ensures that the product has been quality tested and is 100% pure. Ingredients are also clearly printed on every label.)
Simply Earth Sage Essential Oil
Sage has been used for thousands of years to improve cognition and protect against cognitive decline. It can also improve scalp health, ease painful muscles, soothe head discomfort, and provide support to the immune system. It has a calming, earthy/floral scent.
Simply Earth Citrus Burst Essential Oil Blend
February’s box has not one, but two pre-made essential oil blends. The first is “Citrus Burst” — which consists of an energizing combination of lemon, lime, grapefruit, orange, and bergamot essential oil. I absolutely LOVE citrus scents and this uplifting blend is perfection. This oil is ideal for making all natural household/beauty products such as bath bombs, multi-purpose cleaning sprays, air fresheners, soap, and more.
Simply Earth Love Essential Oil Blend
February’s second oil blend was (fittingly) “Love” — a sensual combination of orange, ylang ylang, bergamot, and amyris essential oils. When creating this blend, Simply Earth chose “the best essential oils for love that were known to help incite romantic feelings and blend well together”. Not surprisingly, it was designed to add a little romance to your life — via the magic of essential oils.
Glycerin Melt & Pour Soap
A package of melt & pour glycerin soap was provided to use in making “Heart of Gold” and “Sunshine Scrub Bar”. The package contained six 1-inch cubes, all of which will be utilized in the recipe.
Heart Soap Mold
A red silicone heart-shaped soap mold was also provided to aid in the making of the “Heart of Gold” recipe. It can also be reused to make your own bath melts, candles, and more.
Yellow Gold Mica Powder
A packet of 100% natural yellow-colored mica powder was included to give a vibrant hue to the aforementioned Heart of Gold (soap) and Sunshine Scrub Bar, as well as Glitter & Gold Shower Steamer. The powder contains absolutely nothing synthetic and is perfectly safe for skin.
Here are the recipes that I’ve made so far:
Heart of Gold
Supplies needed: Glycerin Melt and Pour Soap Base, Yellow Gold Mica, Citrus Burst Essential Oil Blend, Love Essential Oil Blend, Mini Heart Mold, and Round Silicone Mold.
First, I needed to melt one of the soap squares that would be poured into the mini heart mold. — I decided to save time and melt it right inside the mold. However, I left it in the microwave too long and it overflowed. (I should have taken the instructions seriously when it said to heat in 5-second increments. Oops!!)
Using a second cube, I successfully melted it down inside of the mold and added the yellow mica powder.
I then grabbed a small bowl to melt down another three soap cubes.
Once liquified, I added the required essential oils and swirled the bowl around to mix.
I then placed the now hardened gold heart-shaped soap into a round silicone mold.
To that, I poured the remaining melted soap/essential oil mixture.
After placing in the fridge to speed up the cooling/hardening process, I carefully removed the soap(s) from the mold…
…and here’s the finished result! — It looks a lot prettier in person. 😉
Love Birds Diffuser Blend
Supplies needed: Love Essential Oil Blend, Citrus Burst Essential Oil Blend, Copaiba Essential Oil, and Sage Essential Oil.
The easiest of all the recipes, it simply required me to fill my diffuser with water, then add the specified amount drops of each of the essential oils above. Once added, I switched on the diffuser and let the love-inspired aroma fill the room.
Love Birds Master Blend
Every monthly diffuser recipe also comes with instructions for making a “master blend” that gives you a pre-made supply to use as you wish.
Supplies needed: Love Essential Oil Blend, Citrus Burst Essential Oil Blend, Copaiba Essential Oil, and Sage Essential Oil, and a 5 mL amber glass bottle*.
*Included in Big Bonus Box.
All you have to do is pour the specified amount of essential oil into the bottle…
…add the provided stickers — and you’re done!
First Date Roll-On
Supplies needed: Love Essential Oil Blend, Citrus Burst Essential Oil Blend, Copaiba Essential Oil, Fractionated Coconut Oil*, and a 10mL Roll-On Bottle*.
*Included in Big Bonus Box.
This easy recipe simply involved placing a specified amount of essential oil into the roll-on bottle and filling the rest up with coconut oil.
Then just replace the cap and carefully position the sticker/label & it’s ready to use!
