As Memorial Day approaches, we’re all anticipating the unofficial start of Summer. While most summer fun entails outdoor activities, we can bring some of the magic of the season into our homes too. Carefully selected essential oils may also help to mask some of the not-so-nice smells of summer (like sweaty crowds, musty dogs and stinky wet towels). With that said, here are 5 must-have essential oils for diffusing all summer long. 

1. Organic Peppermint Essential Oil

Often considered one of the best smelling essential oils for diffusers, Peppermint is a great essential oil for summer. As a perfect way to combat the sluggishness that might come with long days in the sun, Peppermint Oil can provide a much-needed boost. It can help to refresh our homes, stimulate focus, and encourage mental clarity.

2. Organic Lime Essential Oil

With its uplifting and refreshing citrus aroma, Lime essential oil is great to have around when entertaining. Alternatively, it can be used in the morning as a refresher and energizer to help get your day started.

Paired with other essential oils like Bergamot and Ylang Ylang, you can transport yourself to a tropical island—all without the hassle of TSA checks
and delayed flights. 

3. Organic Ginger Essential Oil

The spicy aroma of Ginger essential oil is thought to relieve feelings of exhaustion, anxiousness, and sadness—making it a suitable choice when the overwhelm of summer plans becomes too much. Blended with other invigorating oils like Black Pepper and Cinnamon Leaf, you can create an energizing space to combat those sluggish postexercise or post-flight feelings..

4. Organic Lemongrass Essential Oil

Lemongrass has a citrus-y scent that is cheery and uplifting. It can help you remain alert throughout the dog days of summer. Plus, it’s a great option to refresh a space that smells like last night’s bonfire. To freshen up your home after a night of cooking (or a closet that smells like charcoal), combine Lemongrass with other odor-masking oils like Red Cedar and Rosemary. As an added bonus, these will help to repel mosquitoes!

5. Organic Citronella Essential Oil

While we’re on the topic of insect repellant, we can’t forget about Citronella essential oil! Not only will it keep pests away, but its crisp, clarifying scent is a perfect productivity tool when you’re daydreaming about an upcoming vacation.
