The Seaside blend is an absolute favorite summertime fragrance (and honestly an all year long favorite!) with its lightly floral and citrusy notes. The overall scent of this blend is simply heavenly! Citrusy and herbaceous with a slight floral note. No matter how you use this oil blend, you will absolutely love it!

KEY INGREDIENTS

• NEROLI: Neroli has a fresh, uplifting floral aroma that is often used in luxury perfumes and skin care products. Steam distilled from the flowers of the bitter orange tree, this oil smells like heaven and is a popular choice for perfume! Applied topically, it also promotes the appearance of youthful, radiant skin and helps to reduce the appearance of blemishes.
• ORANGE: Orange essential oil is an instant mood booster! This bright, happy oil is great for promoting an aroma of joy and creativity. Orange is also rich in naturally occurring antioxidants and limonene, making it supportive of the immune and circulatory systems as well as good for our bodies overall.
• LIME: Lime essential oil has a fresh, crisp aroma that uplifts the senses and brightens any space. This versatile citrus oil is a favorite for everything from cleaning to cooking to immune and emotional support! This zesty citrus oil uplifts the senses and supports feelings of clarity and positivity and also has high levels of antioxidants and limonene, which supports the immune system!
• CYPRESS: Cypress is one of our favorite conifer oils - deep, woodsy and full of incredible health benefits. Cypress is calming and grounding and wonderful for releasing stored emotions. It helps ease feelings of loss and creates a sense of security. This oil also supports healthy circulation and heart health and is a popular choice for improving lymphatic flow.
• SAGE: Traditionally used in clearing rituals, Sage essential oil has a bold, herbaceous aroma that can be used aromatically for this same purpose. This herbaceous oil is calming and soothing to the mind and emotions, and pairs well with citrus oils to round out the overall aroma.

This combination of oils can be a powerful emotional tool as well. Cypress and Sage are both grounding and can help us process and release negative emotions. Citrus oils are bright, happy and uplifting and inspire us towards creativity and positivity, and Neroli is incredibly uplifting and soothing. When used with intentional practices like journaling, visualization, counseling or other tools, this blend can be a wonderful support tool!
