What are the best essential oils for the holidays?

Holiday Trio

Holiday Joy enlivens the environment with a warm, spicy, and sweet aroma. The grounding, calming aroma of Holiday Peace—reminiscent of wintertime traditions—adds a tranquil aroma to any setting during this busy season. Let the welcoming comfort of Holiday Love fill the air with a rich woody, and spicy-sweet aroma that’s perfect for intimate gatherings and family festivities. Appreciate the holiday ambiance and create lasting memories for years to come with the Holiday Trio.

Bright and Cozy Trio

The Bright and Cozy Trio brings three doTERRA CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade^® favorites into your home for the holidays. Whether they’re used together or individually, these delightful essential oils—Madagascar Vanilla, Wild Orange, and Peppermint—can be used in countless ways!

Yule Log

The ancient practice of burning the yule log can be traced back to European and Nordic traditions centered around the winter solstice, the longest night of the year. Many stories and beliefs surround this custom. In all of them, the yule log brings people together as a source of warmth and a symbol of hope.

Cinnamon Bark

Cinnamon Bark essential oil is derived from a tropical evergreen tree that grows up to 45 feet high and has highly fragrant bark, leaves, and flowers.

Cypress

Cypress essential oil is derived from tall evergreen trees native to southern Europe and western Asia. The aroma of Cyprus oil is energizing, clean, and refreshing, making it popular in spas and among massage therapists. The grounding scent is also ideal for times of transition or loss. Cypress essential oil is rich in monoterpenes, making it beneficial for oily skin and overall skin health. α-Pinene, one of the main chemical compounds and monoterpenes in Cypress oil, helps reduce the appearance of blemishes.

Hygge Cozy Blend

Treasured family and friends will immediately feel warm and welcome with the sweet, woodsy Hygge Cozy Blend. Hygge (pronounced “hoo-gah”) is a Scandinavian word with ties to the word hug. It refers to finding joy in everyday moments and comfort in togetherness.

Ginger

Newly sourced from Madagascar, doTERRA Ginger essential oil is derived from the fresh rhizome of the ginger plant—the subterranean stalk of a plant that shoots out the root system. A featured ingredient in many Asian dishes, Ginger has a hot, fragrant flavor when used as a kitchen spice. In Western tradition, Ginger is most often used in sweets—gingerbread and ginger snaps being two examples. Internal use of Ginger is best known as a digestive aid and for helping to ease occasional indigestion and nausea.† Ginger essential oil can also be applied topically or inhaled for a soothing aroma.

Siberian Fir Oil

Siberian Fir essential oil comes from a tall conifer tree that’s light in color and native to Russia and Canada. It has a refreshing, woody scent known for its calming and relaxing qualities.

Holiday Joy
