Uplifting, skin-nourishing moisturizing spray to soothe minor aches, pains and stretch skin.
4. I recently suffered from a thrombosis hemorrhoid while pregnant with our third child. Those things cause excruciating pain; worse than childbirth in my opinion. It’s difficult to walk or sit, so I had to mostly lie down. My doctor assured me it would go away on its own within 2 weeks, but after 4 days of no improvement with everything I tried, I was very doubtful about that. Nothing brought any relief. Then I remembered that I had Hopewell’s Mother’s Moisturizing Spray and gave it a try. I sprayed it on some toilet paper and patted the area. I immediately felt a wave of relief. I continued to use it about every 2 hours, and over the next few days things got better. In less than 2 weeks the blood clot resolved. I want to encourage anyone who has the same thing, those things do really go away:)! Other things I found helpful were squatting for any toilet visits, spraying instead of wiping with a squirt bottle with Lavender oil and warm water, sitting in tub with epsom salt immediately after (and many other times) and then applying Mother’s Moisturizing Spray. I am so thankful I had this around! - S.
5. I woke up with a crippling cramp in both legs. The left leg managed to stabilize (still cramped but not as painful), but the right leg felt a bit better, and then all of a sudden got way worse. To try to get some kind of relief, I grabbed the closest oil, which happened to be the Mother's Moisturizing Spray. I sprayed a couple times into my hand, rubbed it into my calf and I got almost instant relief! Thank you! This pregnancy journey would not be what it is without you and your wonderful oils :-) - Katie
6. Thank you for the Mother's Moisturizing Spray! When I hit 8 months, my belly started getting pretty itchy and the spray helps tremendously! It also smells wonderful and helps me relax and get to sleep most nights (9 months now and can't wait to meet our little one soon!) - Kate
7. Thank you for the best quality oils and oil blends out there. There are so many fake oils. I can do my research in a company or an oil and still not be satisfied that I have received the best oil. I never have to worry about yours. The Mother's moisturizing blend was amazing during labor, after labor and for every menstrual cycle. I love the way it smells and sniff it just to lift my mood. Thank you so much for your dedication to such high quality and excellence. It gives me peace of mind to know I can always go to you for quality oils. - Daniela 8. I used Tender Tissue spray in my water spray bottle post delivery, and that was a godsend. I'm still using Mother's Moisturizing spray post delivery. I used it during labor, and all the nurses and doctors loved it. They couldn't believe how calm the room felt and how good it smelled - Candace
Avoid contact with the eyes and other sensitive areas. Essential oils are both lipophilic and hydrophobic. Lipophilic means they are attracted to fat— like the membranes of your eyes and skin. They are also hydrophobic, meaning they do not like water. Flushing with water will only send the essential oil back to the eye's membranes. Applying a carrier oil will create another fat for the essential oil to be attracted to other than the membranes of the eyes or skin. Tisserand suggests: "With essential oils, fatty oil has been suggested as an appropriate first aid treatment, though the advantage of saline [eyewash] is that the eyes can be continually flushed, and this is less easy with fatty oil." We’ve not known this to cause permanent injury or long-term discomfort, but if you feel concerned, please call your health care provider.
*Jasmine Grandiflorum is an absolute from India - Premium quality from the freshest flowers. Jasmine is actually an "essence" not an essential oil. Absolutes are solvent extracted products. They are produced by a multi-step process which involves first extracting the flower (or other biomass) with a non-polar solvent such as hexane. After the hexane is evaporated, a waxy product is obtained called the concrete. The concrete is then extracted using a polar solvent such as ethanol. The polarity of ethanol allows extraction of the volatile aromatics from the concrete while leaving behind the non-polar plant waxes which don't dissolve well in ethanol. Finally, the ethanol is evaporated to leave behind the absolute, which will typically have 1-5% ethanol remaining in it and sometimes a trace of hexane, depending on the method used. *Absolutes are solvent extracted products.
