What you need to know about small-batch, all-organic vs mass-produced products

I was very sad to read the news that CDC confirmed a deadly bacteria* in a Better Homes and Gardens-branded-Essential Oil Infused Aromatherapy Room Spray sold at Walmart. The bacteria is so deadly it is advised to not even pour the liquid down your sink.  I know it can be a full time job to figure out what cleaning products and body care brands have the best ingredients for the air and water in your home -- and anything that touches your skin. Even when buying products that are 'Made in the USA 'or have various 'clean approval' stamps, there are still many factors in...

Aromatic Diffusers Essential oils

A go-to guide for diffusion do’s and dont's

Essential oils are used in many types of diffusers and, in my opinion, the only way to use scent throughout a room. It is non-aerosal and non-spray compared to manufactured brand inhalants.

It's National Tea Month - sip and spritz!

You deserve a mental moment. I have found the best way to 'take a moment' is to brew a cup of hot tea, turn off the overhead lights and spritz one of Moonchaser's room sprays. When I was a child, my mother would always have hot tea ready when friends or neighbors would stop by, but in these times where being social isn't ideal, I found that drinking a cup of brewed tea is comfort in a cup while sitting alone. As a southerner, iced tea is in a league of its own, but hot tea gives me my 'mental moment' to recollect during the...

5 reasons roll-ons are perfect anytime, anywhere

Essential oil roll-ons can support the mind, body and spirit with a quick swipe. A 'roller' or 'roll-on' is a 10ml size glass bottle topped with a rolling ball top.
