1/2 c. coconut oil
2 Tbsp. beeswax
20 drops eucalyptus essential oil (4-5 drops for children under 6)
20 peppermint essential oil (4-5 drops for children under 6)
8 drops rosemary essential oil (do not use on children younger than 6)
5 drops cinnamon essential oil (do not use on children younger than 6)
5 drops clove essential oil (do not use on children younger than 6)
Directions:
Melt coconut oil and beeswax in a double broiler. When cooled to room temperature, pour in essential oils and mix well. I like to use small tins for this because they pack well in diaper bags. I also love to use this recipe in chap stick tubs to use on my baby’s feet. Use as needed for coughing and congestion.
Some essential oils are not considered safe for infants and small children. Always check with your doctor or healthcare provider for any type of use of medicinal recipes.
I hope this soothing oil blesses your family.
