If like many many women, you cumulated a full day at work, some cooking and housekeeping and on top of that your kiddo’s newest homework challenge, you will be needing a restful night sleep!
Here is our recipe for sleepy time oil. Easy and safe, you can even make it with your children as a fun activity.
Some tips:
Choose the right essential oil:
♥ Lavender/ lavandula officinalis
♥ Cedrus Atlantica (you shouldn’t use this oil on your skin if you are pregnant or breastfeeding)
♥Citrus reticulada blanco (tangerine or mandarine): now, we know you will be using it in the night time but just be aware that using citrus essential oils while exposing your skin to the sunlight is photosensitizing (therefore, do not use citrus essential oils during the day time)
-If your coconut oil is solid, let it melt in the sun, or in the microwave for a couple of seconds.
Why applying the oil on your feet and wrists?
-Your wrist’s skin is very thin and will absorb the oils pretty fast
-Your feet’s skin is thick, oils will penetrate slowly and you will therefore benefit from this oil longer throughout the night.
Sweet dreams!
The Spoiled Bee Xx
The Spoiled Bee was created in 2017 by a mother/daughter combo who are passionate about home made natural cosmetics. After numerous travels to all corners of the globe, they have jointly accumulated a wealth of knowledge and first hand experiences in a wide variety of natural cosmetic and beauty ingredients. From the well-kept beauty secrets of the Pacific Islands to ancient French beauty remedies.
We believe nature and beauty is not one size fits all and that is why The Spoiled Bee brings you only the very best of these natural ingredients to create your own custom made cosmetic at home. Ranging from skincare, haircare and mineral makeup ingredients to reusable accessories, we believe nature has provided us with everything we need to be naturally gorgeous! Free of any harsh chemicals, 100% cruelty free, never tested on animals, environmentally friendly and ethical, what more could you ask for?
Through our blog and social medias pages, we will also aim to bring you the very best recipes and advice to help you and inspire you every step of the way.
A little about our name, the Spoiled Bee comes from the desire of protecting our beautiful bees and of course spoiling them! Did you know scientists agree that if all bees were to disappear from the face of the earth, humanity only has about 4 years left to live due to the lack of pollination? That is why we have decided to offer among many other products and ingredients, a range of bee products which also happen to have amazing properties for your body, skin and hair.
Now we know you are probably wondering how encouraging the commerce of bee products will help the bee population? Well, over the last few decades, bee products have unfortunately and often rightly been associated with harsh harvesting and mass production to keep up with the growing demand. We will never be doing that in a million (or trillion) years! We make sure that all our bee products are harvested in a sustainable and respectful manner by carefully selecting trusted bee keepers.
All the hives are located in flowery fields and forests, away from all modern pollution and chemicals and the beekeepers always make sure our bees have more than enough honey left for winter. The more hives, the more the bee population of the world will thrive once again so please help us help them!
Lots of Love
