Get six easy DIY natural summer beauty recipes with essential oils. These recipes help your skin, hair, and mood all summer long.
It's the end of the month, and that means it's time to share next month's Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box with you. The June 2018 Simply Earth box is all about summer. There are six great recipes to try for your hair, skin, and overall wellness.
If you're new to the Simply Earth box, it's a monthly subscription box that has ingredients and supplies to make six natural products at home. Each month, you'll get four essential oil bottles in either straight oils or blends.
You'll also get supplies to make the recipes. You'll have to provide only very common ingredients. These vary by month, but I've had to add Epsom salts, vinegar, and baking soda in previous boxes.
When you purchase a Simply Earth Recipe Box through my link and use code EVERYTHINGPRETTYFREE, you also get a free Bonus Box with roller bottles, small bottles for master blends, and carrier oils that you'll need to create your recipes.
And you'll also get a free $40 gift card to use on a future purchase! You can use that on your next box or to order single oils or even a diffuser.
This month, I recorded the unboxing in my Instagram stories. I also showed each recipe and all of the ingredients you need to make it.
