Essential Oils Skincare for Adventures

by Katie Wallace | Updated: July 15, 2017

Ready for summer adventures? Nice weather brings the promise of sun-soaked days and unforgettable memories. However, while you’re out exploring nature with your kids, don’t let owies get in the way. Oilogic essential oils skincare helps soothe scrapes and bug bites in a healthy way. These products offer natural comfort through soothing blends of essential oils. I’m excited to share the highlights of Oilogic products.

Natural Healing for Owies

It can be tricky to deal with bug bites or scraped knees, especially on adventures. Oilogic essential oils skincare helps comfort owies without stinging. The Ouchies & Boo Boos ointment goes on smoothly and helps soothe irritation and redness. My kids use this cream on their cuts, scrapes, and stubbed toes. It has a refreshing fragrance of peppermint and it’s made from 100% pure essential oils, diluted with sunflower seed oil.

Additionally, Oilogic makes a Bug Bites & Itches essential oil roll-on. This balm is a concentrated blend of 100% pure essential oils, diluted with jojoba oil and castor oil. It calms itchy skin using natural ingredients, and the bottle is a compact size to put in your pocket.

We used this balm on our family camping trips, where bug bites are numerous! This gentle itch-reducing product helps our kids sleep after an adventurous day. The roll-on applicator makes it easy to quickly apply the balm on kids’ bug bites.

Oilogic Essential Oils Skincare & Vapor Bath

Last but not least, Oilogic offers several lavender vapor bath products that help relieve congestion and stuffy noses. We tried two different formulations of vapor baths, each made with 100% pure essential oils.

Slumber & Sleep Vapor Bath adds relaxing vapors to a child’s bath that soothe and calm a child before bedtime. You can also use the foaming liquid as a gentle cleanser. I especially enjoy the strong lavender fragrance.

Stuffy Nose & Cough Vapor Bath naturally soothes congestion with a blend of essential oils, such as orange peel oil, eucalyptus leaf oil, and lavender oil. These oils are diluted appropriately to be safe and effective.

Like the rest, Oilogic bath products contain 100% natural essential oils. The vapor bath products are gentle on sensitive skin and eczema, in my experience. Overall, I definitely recommend trying these products for your own family!

πŸ’‘ Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids! 🧳 πŸ’‘ Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids!

🧳 Pack light with items that do more

We bring clothes that mix and match, quick-dry layers, fold-flat totes, and activities that encourage creativity. Think art supplies and travel board games. The less we carry, the more we can explore.

πŸ₯ͺ Eat often and try new flavors
We use snack stops and meals to experience local culture. Bakeries, fruit stands, and small cafΓ©s become our favorite spots. 

🏞️ Choose simple adventures over packed days
We go on kid-friendly hikes, stop at playgrounds, and tour cultural centers. We visit great houses, historic workhouses, and local museums.

πŸ“± Use screens sparingly
Ideally our kids only use screens on travel days, and with a time limit. Shows and multi-player games can help turn dull afternoons into family fun!

πŸ”¦ Encourage curiosity
We explore as much as we can with our four kids, shopping at markets, using public transportation, and visiting immersive attractions. We find many free activities, and budget for must-see destinations. 

➑️ Which of these travel tips would help your family the most?
