I have been using my Premium Starter Kit for months now and a few of the oils instantly became my favorites. Lemon Essential Oil is definitely a great everyday oil. I use Lemon Essential Oil as a degreaser and for my homemade cleaning products.
Everyday Essential Oils
I started with the Young Living premium starter kit because it was the best value and it would give me a chance to experience some of the most common essential oils. Along with the diffuser, the premium starter kit includes the basic ten everyday essential oils: Thieves, Joy, Valor, Purification, Lemon, PanAway, Frankincense, Peppermint, Peace & Calming and Lavender.
I have been using my Essential Oils Pocket Reference to learn all of the different ways to use the Everyday Essential Oils.
Common Uses of Lemon Essential Oil
- Sticky Residue: I use 1-2 drops of Lemon Essential Oil to remove the sticky residue left from labels or other sticky messes.
- Fruit and Vegetable Wash: I mix water with 2-3 drops of Lemon Essential Oil to clean my fruits and vegetables.
- All Purpose Cleaner: I mix 1 cup of apple cider or white vinegar, 16 drops of Lemon Essential Oil, and 1 cup of distilled water and use it as an all purpose cleaner.
- Air Freshener: I diffuse Lemon Essential Oil in my home diffuser that came in the Premium Starter Kit.
- Skin Callouses: I rub 1 drop of Lemon Essential Oil on my heals twice a day to remove callouses.
- Degreaser: I add 1-2 drops of Lemon Essential Oil to get rid of greasy stains and messes.

Because I love Lemon Essential Oil so much I decided to giveaway a 5 mL bottle + an Cuisinart ICE-21 Frozen Yogurt, Ice Cream, and Sorbet Maker. The good news about essential oils is that a little goes a long way (1-2 drops per application) so the bottles can last quite a while. Due to the cost for me to ship the prize, the Lemon Essential Oil + Ice Cream Maker giveaway will be limited to U.S. residents only. Young Living does ship to certain countries outside of the United States so if you would like to try using essential oils consider becoming a distributor/wholesale member. Giveaway ends July 13, 2014 at 12:00 AM ET.
