Essential oils such as those from Rouh Essentials are everywhere. Why are so many people using them? They are a pharmaceutical grade, natural remedy with great healing power. I use them when making my DIY beauty product and natural cleaning supplies, and yes they are diluted.

Did you know they are very concentrated? It takes:

256 pounds of peppermint leaf to make one pound of oil.

150 pounds of lavender flowers to make one pound of lavender essential oil.

So keep this in mind if you are making products, drinking teas, or using oils for any reason.
