Be Sleepy Pure Essential Oil Blend

"This soothing and relaxing aroma helps to create the BEST sleep environment! I put a few drops in my diffuser 30 minutes before I go to sleep and my room smells divine! To level up the experience I add a drop or 2 to the ends of my hair and I am in a deep sleep in no time! New night time go-to!"

Be sleepy Pure Essential Oil Blend

"As a working mother of two boys, good deep sleep is often an issue- getting to sleep can be a challenge as I am always thinking ahead to all the things I need to get done the next day. Sometimes I will even wake myself up with my busy mind. The first two nights I diffused ‘be sleepy’, I got to sleep quickly and actually stayed asleep until the next morning! Just walking into my room while the oil was diffusing instantly relaxed me, thereby setting me up for a great nights sleep."

"After using the base essentials body products (body wash, shampoo and conditioner) I'm super impressed by the quality. Not only do these products smell amazing, they work well and I love knowing that each product uses high quality ingredients and essential oils. Would definitely recommend to others, especially being an Australian business."

Be Focused Pure Essential Oil Blend

"This oil blend helped me get through a crazy day at work. I had meetings from 8:30am till 5pm with only a 10 minute break for a quick walk around the block at lunch time. With so many meetings it was becoming increasingly hard to concentrate. To help me, I would smell ‘be focused’ between meetings. It really helped to bring me back to the present moment and concentrate on what I was doing, helping me to be more productive and get through a challenging day."

Body Lotion

"I love this product! As a tall person often I find myself using a massive amount of lotion to cover my body, arms and legs so I was very pleasantly surprised to see how far a small amount went. This lotion not only absorbed quickly and made my skin feel beautiful and smooth, it also smells incredible! Who needs expensive perfume when you can smell that good from lotion?"
