Flu Bombs, Cold Bombs, and Essential Oils

With flu season coming up, I wanted to make a roller ball of essential oils that would protect my family; especially my toddler. Here is what I made:

Cold/Flu Preventative- this will be an almost daily roll on for my toddler - more for the days he goes to daycare. I roll it on the bottoms of his feet.

10ml roller bottle
Fractionated Coconut oil to fill bottle after drops
2 drops each:
*Wild orange
*Onguard (a doTerra blend)
*Melaleuca aka tea tree oil
*Lemon


Flu Bomb: For when/if the flu actually hits. It's the same as the Preventative, but I've added oregano (which shouldn't be used consecutively for more than 14 days).

10ml roller ball
Fractionated Coconut oil to fill bottle after drops
2 drops each:
*Wild orange
*Onguard (a doTerra blend)
*Melaleuca aka tea tree oil
*Lemon
*Oregano

                                                     The after product. And good labeling is key. Nothing worse
                                                     than misplacing your recipe and needing to make more.

                                                    The case I keep my oils and accoutrements in.



                                                    This is the fractionated coconut oil. Different from regular
                                                     coconut oil b/c this one is always liquid.

                                                     These are the roller balls I got in bulk. Ended up costing
                                                     about $0.15 each. Ordered off of Amazon. 


                                                    The pipettes are needed for putting the oil
                                                     in the roller balls. The essential oils are
                                                     easy to put in - just hold over the roller balls
                                                     and let them drop in.
