Inside the AromaTouch Technique Kit by dōTERRA
Balance essential oil blend is the grounding blend in the dōTERRA range, the one you apply in the morning to start the day on an even keel. It brings together Black Spruce, Ho Wood, Frankincense, Blue Tansy and Blue Chamomile in a base of fractionated coconut oil: a woody, fresh, sweet scent in which the conifers lead without the heaviness of a resin.
Key benefits
- Promotes emotional balance and whole-body harmony.
- Promotes a feeling of calm, stability and serenity from the morning on.
- A woody, fresh, light aroma that invites renewal.
- Gives a sense of calm and well-being during a massage.
Lavender essential oil is the most widely used oil in the dōTERRA range, and the first one to recommend to someone just starting out. This is true lavender, not the lavandin that covers the fields photographed in Provence: more floral and less camphoraceous, it goes to distillation within twenty-four hours of cutting, which holds on to its most volatile notes.
Key benefits
- Soothing properties, used to relax the body and lift the mood.
- Encourages a feeling of calm and a relaxing environment.
- Soothes and moisturises dry skin.
- Helps maintain thick, healthy-looking hair.
- Widely used in cosmetics and perfumery to promote clear, healthy skin.
Peppermint essential oil is one of dōTERRA’s best sellers, and one of the three oils the brand recommends for beginners. A hybrid of water mint and spearmint, it is grown in Oregon, where abundant rainfall gives it a high menthol content: the menthol is what makes it so fresh.
Key benefits
- Rich in menthol, which gives it its intense freshness, in the mouth as on the skin.
- Flavours smoothies, desserts, drinks and savoury dishes with a powerful minty taste.
- One drop in a tall glass of water, after a hearty meal.
- Diffused, its minty aroma creates an atmosphere conducive to mental clarity and focus.
- Provides a cooling sensation during a massage, diluted, on the neck and shoulders.
Tea Tree essential oil, also known as Melaleuca, is one of the first five oils dōTERRA ever offered. Distilled from the leaves of an Australian shrub, it contains more than ninety-two identified compounds, and its fresh, herbaceous aroma is immediately recognisable.
Key benefits
- Known for its cleansing and renewing effects, which give the skin a revitalising freshness.
- Has properties that help reduce the appearance of blemishes.
- Provides benefits for hair, skin and nails.
- Soothes and softens dry skin.
- Cleanses and freshens the air, clearing unpleasant odours.
Wild Orange essential oil, sold by dōTERRA in Europe under the name Sweet Orange, is one of the most popular oils in the range. It is cold-pressed from the peels, those of one hundred and fifty-four oranges for a 15 ml bottle: the aroma is that of a freshly peeled orange, sweet and tangy.
Key benefits
- Lifts the mood and restores momentum when tiredness sets in.
- Refreshes the skin and brings it soothing qualities.
- Diffused with Frankincense, it creates fresh, clean air.
- Cleans surfaces and chases odours from the home.
- Naturally rich in limonene, which gives it its cleansing properties.
AromaTouch essential oil blend is the massage blend in the dōTERRA range, the one that gave its name to the technique. It combines Cypress, distilled from lower branches pruned in Bulgaria, with Peppermint, Marjoram, Basil, Grapefruit and Lavender: a fresh, minty scent in which the citrus lightens the herbs.
Key benefits
- Helps release tension and provides a soothing sensation.
- Gives off a minty, fresh, clean aroma, peaceful during a massage.
- Provides a refreshing sensation on the skin.
- Combines Cypress, Peppermint, Marjoram, Basil, Grapefruit and Lavender.
Deep Blue essential oil blend is the muscle comfort blend in the dōTERRA range, the blend of athletes and long days on your feet. Its new formula brings together Japanese Mint, Bergamot Mint, Peppermint, camphor-rich Spanish Rosemary, Copaiba, Star Anise, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Helichrysum, Blue Tansy, Blue Chamomile and Wintergreen: a minty, camphoraceous, very fresh scent.
Key benefits
- Soothes and cools the skin on contact, for targeted comfort to the back, legs and feet.
- The ideal companion to a massage after exercise or a long day.
- New formula with Copaiba and Spanish Rosemary, naturally rich in camphor.
- Helps release tension and relaxes the body during massage.
The On Guard essential oil blend brings together five oils: wild orange, clove, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus and rosemary. It is dōTERRA’s most sought-after blend, and its warm, spicy scent is recognisable the moment you open the bottle.
Key benefits
- Has an energising and uplifting aroma.
- Adds a spiced, warming citrus note to your hot drinks and desserts.
- Effectively cleanses skin and surfaces.
- Creates a warm, comforting atmosphere when diffused.
dōTERRA fractionated coconut oil is the carrier oil of the range, the one that accompanies essential oils at the moment you apply them. Fractionation removes the fats that make coconut oil set at room temperature: what remains is an oil that stays liquid, colourless, odourless, and that does not stain.
Key benefits
- Absorbed quickly by the skin, it softens and soothes dry skin.
- A natural emollient that improves the distribution of the essential oil, without clogging pores.
- Odourless and colourless, it blends with every essential oil.
- Non-greasy, it leaves a silky feel and does not stain.
