Freshen and lubricate tender tissues. Available as a spray or as essential oils-only so you can add the carrier of your choice. See Size/Price for options.
Use to freshen, restore and lubricate. Safe for tender tissues; there may be a slight warming sensation. Make your own SPRAY: Freshen is handy to use as a spray. To make a spray, simply decide on the appropriate dilution ratio, add the number of drops to the spray bottle, and then fill with the carrier oil of your choice. For example, for 5% Freshen in a 1oz bottle, put 50 drops Freshen in the bottle then fill to just below the shoulder of the bottle with carrier oil.
Kurt Schnaubelt PhD, founder and science director of the Pacific Institute of Aromatherapy, writes the following in regard to using essential oils vaginally: "According to Dr. Belaiche the use of suppositories (vaginal or rectal) presents a double benefit for aromatherapy treatments: 1. The essential oil acts topically (in-situ) if used for vaginal disorders. 2. The essential oil is absorbed readily by the afferent veins to the internal iliac vein, and by the pelvic-lymphatic system. The adult dosage is 0.2 mL of essential oil per 2 mL carrier oil, which is a 9% dilution ratio.
Freshen Essential Oils (not the spray): Dilute with a carrier. Maximum dermal use level is 7% due to potential skin irritating issues with Ylang Ylang.
3. Linda, you hit-the-mark creating this blend - it's unbelievable! Lubricating, romantic, beautiful, inspiring - I'm really at a loss for words. Thanks for consistently helping others with your creative intuition and servant's heart. 4. This blend has been such a blessing. It has a beautiful aroma, is sufficiently lubricating and has just enough "warming" sensation to make for a beautiful experience. Thank you for all you do to research and provide such wonderful oils and blends. - Tara 5. Freshen Spray and Katee Eva were perfect little romantic surprises I included in honeymoon gift baskets I made for my sisters. Both of them said it was one of their favorite gifts. It is truly amazing how you have created this wonderful synergy with the oils God has made which become so effective in so many ways. - F.B.
6. Thank you so much for your Freshen Spray! I have Lichen Sclerosus and summer can trigger flares. I ordered your Freshen Spray and used it all summer. I had no fissure tears, and no days where I had to stay inside and avoid activities at all. I hiked 6 miles without any problems! It has also helped with intimate moments with my husband, no flares or tears at all. This oil blend has changed my life. Blessings from a grateful customer. - K.

Maximum dermal use level of the essential-oil-only blend is 7% due to potential skin irritating issues with Ylang Ylang.
