Daily life often comes with its little surprises, but that's no reason to turn to the toxic products you find on your drug store's shelves. Here are some helpful things that will get you back up and at it — naturally.
The Marseilles Blend Lozenges
Soothe your itchy, scratchy throat and freshen your breath with the spicy, refreshing taste of pure, therapeutic-grade Marseilles blend lozenges. Nature's perfect design of invigorating essential oils serves as the base of this soothing lozenge, a natural blend for the relief of occasional symptoms of congestion, headaches, sore throat, watery eyes and sneezing.
Now, dōTERRA® offers you the On Guard Protecting Throat Drops. Made with the incredible On Guard essential oil blend, effective protection has never tasted so good.
Aromatic Pet & Delicate Derriere Ointments
I know, it's called the aromatic pet ointment, not aromatic people ointment, but this ointment is a must for every first aid kit. The ingredients of mink oil, lecithin, beeswax, lanolin, sesame seed oil, rosewood, wheat germ oil, palmarosa, patchouli, myrrh, carrot seed oil, Melaleuca alternifoila, rose hip seed oil, geranium and balsam fir essential oils make this the perfect replacement for the triple-antibiotic ointment we grew up with.
But, there is another great ointment you shouldn't neglect. It's called the delicate derriere ointment, from the therapeutic-grade essential oils Just for Kids line. It's a gentle, nourishing blend of coconut oil, cocoa butter, beeswax, wheat germ oil, olive oil, almond oil, and the therapeutic-grade essential oils of sandalwood, rosewood, Roman chamomile, lavender, cistus ladanifer, blue tansy and frankincense. It's a great general purpose ointment that you will find uses for every day.

- Lemon: a great antiseptic.
- The anti-bacterial blend: perfect for bites and stings.
- The pain relief blend: … well, you already know about it!

I think you'll agree that no first aid kit is complete without the Aromatherapy 101 Kit.
