My Newest Obsession: Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box

August Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box // A Hosting Home Blog

This is a sponsored conversation on behalf of Simply Earth. As always, all photos and opinions are my own. Please see the disclaimer on my about page for more information about this type of post.

My Newest Obsession:

Simply Earth Essential Oils

If you ever step foot in my house, there’s a diffuser on somewhere. It’s almost a constant thing. I especially like to put my diffuser on the sofa table behind out couch so that it travels through the entire heart of our home. To be honest, I have always been a smelly candle junkie. Most of the time, I’ll have a candle AND complementary diffuser blend going. However, I am also one of those people who will light a candle, walk away, and (kind of) forget about it. It’s a high price to pay to want your home smelling like heaven.

With that being said, I actually started dabbling in essential oils almost two years ago as a (flameless) way to, in a lack of better words, make my house smell nice. However, I came to find out that diffusing essential oils gave my home a feeling that candles never could. I was hooked. I started looking more into essential oils and all of their uses beyond just diffusing. But as I got deeper into the Pinterest rabbit hole that was essential oils, I started to understand that the quality of the essential oils used was even more important. As picky as I am about the products I use on myself and in my home, I became just as picky about the essential oils I’d purchase.

When the ladies at Simply Earth approached me about trying out their essential oils, I dove deep into their brand and fell in love with their Simply Pure Promise and what they stood for. They are all about a commitment to quality and creating a natural home for your family. The best part is that their prices are fair for the quality that you’re receiving.

My Favorite Thing About Simply Earth Essential Oils

Besides the fact that they are all-natural, 100% pure essential oils, I love that Simply Earth tells you about each essential oil on the back of the bottle. They include the part of the plant it came from, the origin, the plant name, and the aroma that the oil has. It is also disclosed if an oil is child safe – and the age in which it is safe to use.

As someone who always tended to stick to the basics when it comes to essential oils, I don’t always know a lot about the benefits of specific oils. If you’re like me, you’re going to love that they include a card in their recipe box with descriptions of each oil, their properties, different uses, and benefits! It made me feel so comfortable (and excited!) knowing how to use each oil.

Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box

If you’re anything like me, you’ve subscribed to your fair share of subscription boxes. They promise an array of products. However, they are typically filled with low quality and trial sized products. This is to keep it affordable and *just* good enough to keep you paying for it. Not only is the Simply Earth Essential Oil Recipe Box different. But, it’s also a subscription box that any essential oil junkie is going to fall in love with. Full sized oils and fun extras make it the perfect gift for yourself or a friend. The best part? It’s a $150 value for only $39 per month!

How The Recipe Box Works

It’s super simple actually. The Simply Earth aromatherapy team designs the perfect recipes, and each month you get all the ingredients, containers, and extras you need to make the natural recipes… delivered right to your doorstep each month!

Hello, Bonus Box!

In addition to the essential oil recipe box, you will also get a big blue bonus box filled with even more goodies when you first subscribe! Along with beeswax, almond oil, and coconut oil to be used with my recipes for this month, my bonus box also came filled with empty roll-on containers and 5ml blend bottles to save all my favorite blend combinations!

A Peek Inside August’s Recipe Box

The August recipe box from Simply Earth is all about self care – something I’ve definitely struggled with since our son passed away this Spring. In addition to hiring a personal trainer, this month’s recipe box couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. With 7 recipes containing simple steps to take care of myself and my skin with natural and pure essential oils, I couldn’t wait to treat myself and add this box into my daily routine. Here are a few of my favorite recipes from this month’s box!

Recipe 1: Feel Good Morning Diffuser

If you ever step foot in my house, there’s a diffuser on somewhere. It’s almost a constant thing. I especially like to put my diffuser on the sofa table behind out couch so that it travels through the entire heart of our home. When I saw that this month’s recipe box included a diffuser blend, I got so excited and immediately mixed up a master blend. It’s the perfect addition to my bible study and quiet time full of coffee and puppy snuggles every morning after I wake up.

Recipe 3: Skin Renewing Face Mask

I LOVE face masks. You know, even though they make me look like Dwight from The Office’s “Stress Relief” episode in Season 5. Meanwhile, jokes aside, I had so much fun getting to make my own with this month’s box. It made my skin feel so moisturized and clean. Made with the clear skin essential oil blend and aloe vera gel, it really is the perfect summertime face mask to incorporate into your skin care routine.

Recipe 6: Clear Skin Roll On

Can I give you a dose of real life? Since getting off birth control, getting pregnant, and having a baby, my hormones have been all over the place. With that, I’ve struggled with my fair share of acne breakouts. Meanwhile, with sensitive skin, I’ve never been a fan of using chemicals on my face and have always gravitated towards treating it with natural products. I’ve used Tea Tree oil in my skincare routine, but I was so excited when I saw this recipe for a roll on with Simply Earth‘s clear skin blend. With tea tree, sandalwood, cedarwood, juniper berry, and lemon essential oils, it’s the perfect all-natural combo to treat those pesky skin breakouts.

Cozy Red and White Christmas Tablescape + Table Setting Tips Video!

December 23, 2019


Today on Insta Stories I shared a couple of simple Today on Insta Stories I shared a couple of simple tips for decorating with faux floral stems in wall planters. 🪴 In case you missed it ➡️ 1. Stuff your planters with those extra plastic grocery bags. I showed y’all how great they held up the stems in place! Not to mention, it keeps you from having to completely fill each planter. 2. Make sure to bend the ends of your stems to the desired height rather than cut them so you can reuse them each year in a different way, whether that be in a wall planter this year and a large jug vase next year! They then become an investment and can actually save you money by you not having to purchase new stems each year. ✨ So what do y’all think — was that helpful? #ahostinghome

Introducing: baby jail! 👶🏼🍼 (well, a sliv Introducing: baby jail! 👶🏼🍼 (well, a sliver view of it.) Chaos ensued today from putting that thing together. I obviously didn’t read the dimensions because it’s large, in charge, and takes up a lot of room in our living room — which in turn caused me to rearrange all our furniture. 🤷🏼‍♀️😅 Not only did I get a great workout 🤪 but Willie also found a new perch to bark at the neighbors out the front door. But you know what? This is real life — and I LOVE this season of life that God has blessed me with. With two babies in heaven, I’ve prayed for this season for so long. ❤️ And while it’s not the most aesthetically pleasing thing on Instagram, I hope to inspire you with the real life of living where you love, in the season of life that you’re in. ✨❤️ #ahostinghome

I was going to wait for it to be completely done, I was going to wait for it to be completely done, but I can’t help myself! ✨ Tackled this china cabinet yesterday, and all I can say is WOW WHAT A TRANSFORMATION. (Swipe to see the before! ➡️) 😍👏🏼 This china cabinet belonged to my grandmother, and It’s been so fun getting to make it my own and make it apart of my home. I painted it with @behrpaint chalk paint in the color ‘Classic Noir’ and accented it with the most darling @wallpops wallpaper in the back. Now I just need to do the finishing touches by rub n’ buffing the hardware, and it’ll be done. 😍 I originally wanted to paint it white because I was nervous to paint it black— but now I’m SO glad I did! My motto for 2021: don’t be afraid to be bold with design! (It’s just paint! 😉) So tell me, what do y’all think?! #ahostinghome
Don’t mind me, just chilling in my comfy clothes Don’t mind me, just chilling in my comfy clothes and slippers admiring the work that I did today. Master bathroom paint is (pretty much) finished, and I’m already in love with how my vision for it is coming together. Rob keeps laughing because this all started with needing to fix our shower... yet I have to remind him that he knew what he got into when he married me. 😘 I can’t believe how much painting this little wall made our marble tile pop! Now I want to put this color everywhere in my house. 😍 P.S. Did you catch some paint project tips in my stories today? ✨#ahostinghome

I feel like it’s officially that weird transitio I feel like it’s officially that weird transition time of year with my home decor, y’all! Too early for Spring, yet when I put Christmas decor away, I like to put it all away so I can have a fresh and clean slate for the new year. That means lots of greenery and fresh additions mixed with cozy textures to give it a clean and fresh feeling while I focus on projects and things around the house for the new year. How do y’all like to transition and decorate after Christmas? #ahostinghome

Hello, progress photo! My name is Cathy, and I lov Hello, progress photo! My name is Cathy, and I loveee to paint! ✨❤️ While I only get small slivers of time right now because I’m a mama to a sweet newborn, I’m making the most of it — and our master bathroom is slowly getting its much needed facelift. Our new shower door won’t get delivered until later this month, but I wasn’t going to let that stop me from getting my hands on the rest of the walls! I absolutely love this Pure White by @sherwinwilliams — it’s the same white I used when I redid our guest bathroom. It’s the perfect neutral white that is going to make this space look so much bigger and brighter! 😍 #ahostinghome
This entryway makeover was another one of my favor This entryway makeover was another one of my favorite DIY projects in 2020, inspired by @mindfullygray’s entry and @thejadebennett’s color vibes. It’s crazy how much of a difference paint and a wood board with hooks can make! ✨ It completely transformed this space and gave it so much functionality. (SWIPE ➡️ to see the before!) I see a lot more paint and DIYs in 2021 — and I CAN’T WAIT! 👏🏼

Happy New Year, friends! ✨ As I mentioned on Ins Happy New Year, friends! ✨ As I mentioned on Insta Stories the other day, we ended 2020 with a leak in our master bathroom that is making us take out our builder grade shower insert and redo it (so 2020, right? 🤦🏼‍♀️) — so we’re starting out 2021 with a master bathroom makeover! ✨ Since we have to redo the shower, we decided to go ahead and makeover the rest of the bathroom too because it’s a space we really haven’t touched yet. I’ve been dying to get my hands on it, but I have always been too hesitant and unsure of what I wanted to do. Channeling my goal for 2021 of being bold and fearless in my DIY projects this year, we’re going for it! Here’s a peek at the design board I have working so far, and you can see the progress and behind the scenes on Instagram stories as we go. (I’ve started saving it all to a highlight on my profile too!) To say I can’t wait is a bit of an understatement. So tell me, what do you think of my vision so far?! #ahostinghome
Looking back through 2020, our guest bathroom make Looking back through 2020, our guest bathroom makeover was definitely one of my favorite projects we did this year! It was funky and bold and totally out of my comfort zone when it came to my decorating style, and I think that’s why I’m so obsessed with it! Is it weird to say that my guest bathroom inspires me everyday? ✨ This next year my goal is to be bold with my design choices and projects while being fearless in picking up a tool and trying something new — and I can’t wait to kick it off with our master bathroom makeover! ✨ What are your goals for the new year? #ahostinghome
