I absolutely adore Young Living’s Lavender Lotion. However, there are times when I like to make my own less expensive alternative at home. This recipe is so easy anyone can make it, and you really do save a significant amount of money. However, it’s very important to me that my personal care products are non-toxic, and that we use the best essential oils in the world, and that’s why we use Young Living essential oils only.
I also prefer non-GMO products whenever possible, and I love this lotion, because it is non-GMO and has no added toxic chemicals. It is cruelty free, paraben free, polysorbate free, disodium EDTA free, gluten free, non-GMO verified. I also love the fact that I can use this on my two-year-old at nighttime as a synthetic chemical free lotion alternative.
The directions are so easy to follow, and check out our video below to help you made your own lotion at home.
