doTERRA Introduction to Essential Oils Kit Review

This month's doTERRA Essential Oil review includes the Introduction to Essential Oils Kit. I received this kit from My Natural Family in exchange for an honest review.

This kit includes the doTERRA Peppermint, Lavender, and Lemon Essential Oils in 5 ml bottles. It also includes an introductory audio CD and booklet highlighting the uses of essential oils.


This is a wonderful product for those interested in trying essential oils for the first time or those just looking for a refresher. There are so many uses listed!

Here are a few that I've tried personally:

Lemon Essential Oil Uses

Lemon Essential Oil to clean kitchen counters and stainless steel. If you want a citrusy scent, this oil has got it in the bag. Just a few drops diluted in water and you've got a wonderful smelling (and CLEAN) kitchen.

I also use the lemon oil along with my floor steamer. I sprinkle a few drops around the floor before I get started and spread it around while mopping.

Lemon is also said to repel fleas, evidently the little blood suckers don't like citrus so that's an extra bonus for me because I have an inside/outside dog (or he has us, however you want to see it)

Peppermint Essential Oil Uses

Peppermint Essential Oil is great for digestion. If I'm feeling nauseous I can rub a few drops on my stomach or the soles of my feet to help ease it. 

If I'm feeling overheated, I'll wet a wash cloth with cold water and a few drops of peppermint oil and it really helps to cool me down. Its especially great for this hot Tennessee weather.

Use it in your shampoo for a stimulating hair and scalp massage. It feels sooo good! (and tingly)

Just inhale it! You can inhale a bit of peppermint oil for a quick non-stimulant pick-me-up. It helps with concentration too!

Lavender Essential Oil Uses

Lavender is perhaps the opposite of peppermint when it comes to stimulation. Lavender has long been known in aromatherapy to calm a person and help ease stress. Put it on your pillow before bed to help you drift off to sleep, add a few drops to your bath salts for an even more relaxing bath, or add it to your lotion!

Lavender will also help soothe itchy bug bites, sunburns, and diaper rash.
