I looked it up online, seems it's a synthetic oil that's best suited to cold (sub-zero) temperatures.

I've heard a lot of good about Frankincense, and don't have it - yet - because it is quite expensive... and I have heard that the brandy/hot toddy treatment is just about the best thing to shake a cold, lol!
I have been using tea tree oil for years on skin issues, any kind of skin infection, and it also works in lice treatment.
I use lavender in my soaps and hand lotions, and also sometimes I put a drop or two of lavender oil into some vinegar and use it as a softener instead of Downy to really clean my whites and towels.
Thanks for sharing your uses of essential oils

Well, there are other essential oils out there, but I wouldn't recommend putting them in your car, lol! Let's just say there is a big difference between essential oil for your car, and essential oil for your body...

Re: Essential Oils
I also use Clovanol whenever I have bleeding gums, a cold sore, etc. Just a couple of drops under the tongue after I've brushed my teeth at night before bed, and in the morning, all is well. I've heard it also helps with tooth pain as well.

LOL... so you guys only know about oil for cars. You really need to consider what essential oils for your body can do for you...

I will have you know I have a jar of coconut oil in my kitchen cabinet! Of course it has been there a couple of years and I think i only used it once. LOL
I do see from my FB feed that Essential Oils is the latest multi level marketing hooey that a lot of Pentecostals have jumped into. I give it two or three years and it will be forgotten like all of the other MLM fads.

Yes, I don't like the multi level marketing junk either. I steer clear of that. And not just Pentecostals doing it... just about everyone you talk to is involved in a MLM of them somehow.
At any rate, essential oils are good, despite the fact that they've been hit on by the MLM business. You are right, the whole MLM will probably crash and burn a few years down the road. But, that doesn't take away from the fact that you can make your own essential oils, and there are a lot of health benefits from using them.
You can put coconut oil directly on your skin. It also works just as good as a chemically created sunscreen. In fact, since I've started using coconut oil on my very fair skin in the last couple of years, I haven't had a sunburn. It is a natural sunscreen.

Re: Essential Oils
I think essential oils are great. But I have seen some folks attribute the reference to healing in the bible with anointing oil to the OIL causing a natural remedy and not the power of God. That is incorrect.
