It is finally here! My favorite time of the year! Summer, Summer, Summer Time!  Being outside has so many health benefits, but being outside includes being exposed to the SUN.  The Sun is wonderful and gives us a beautiful bronze glow, but it’s UV rays can be harmful to our skin. Using sunscreen daily is crucial to protecting our skin!!

I don’t know about y’all…but if you're like us you start spending more and more time outside. We love the longer days and playing in the sun!!  

If you live for those brilliant summer skies make sure and take essential oils along for the ride…

First on our list is the TerraShield® Outdoor Blend. No matter the activity, everyone should keep this blend with them during their outdoor adventures. It is an effective, natural repellent that leaves out the nasty chemicals. Aside from TerraShield, there are plenty of other “outdoor” oils to have on hand, too.

Going Out in the Sun

At the beach or the campground, everyone needs to get outside and enjoy some time in the sun for the mood-boosting and vitamin D benefits. However, make sure you pack these skin-friendly oils to keep cool and refreshed.

•  Peppermint: Apply in in a roller bottle directly to your skin when you need to cool down most. Or, add a few drops to a spray bottle with water...

I hope y’all had an amazing Fourth of July because I know we did!

We spent so much time outside and you know what that means, lots of fun, lots of sun, and lots of bug bites.

Did you know that out of 2,000 sunscreens reviewed, more than 75% were found to contain toxic chemicals?

Or that common side effects for insect repellents include skin reactions, allergic rashes, and eye irritation?

Also, many topical medicated creams for insect-bite itching and irritation have side effects causing redness, irritation, and swelling.

So here are a few of my after fourth favorite DIY home remedies.
