I have been asked a few times which Essential Oil Diffusers I use. I actually have one to two in every room in my house so I use a lot. But I thought I would let you all see a few of my favorites and why I chose them. I love using a Diffuser. Using Essential Oils topically or ingesting them can be very dangerous if you do not know how to use them properly. So this can be the best and most safe way to use them, especially for new Essential Oil enthusiasts.
Hands down my absolute favorite Essential Oil Diffuser is the BellaSentials Bamboo Diffuser. I love the sleek look of it. My house is done in primitive antiques and most of those white cone diffusers just look so goofy sitting around. This wood looking one just blends in with everything else. It also runs for a full day or night. It can hold 400ML of water where most only hold around 150ML. It has an automatic shutoff and subtle rotating lights that can be turned off. It also (the Dark Bamboo) doesn't beep when it turns off, so it's great for a bedroom. I use mine in the living room and the master bedroom because it's best for a large room. It's also a really good price for the size and look. This is what I would call a classier kind of Diffuser! I own three and have given away a number as gifts. This Diffuser is also BPA free and so that is a huge plus! You can get the BellaSentials Bamboo Diffuser on Amazon HERE.
My second favorite Essential Oil Diffuser is the InstaNatural Diffuser. This Diffuser is all white with a color changing top. It will rotate soft and soothing color as long as it is on. You can leave on one color, or turn the lights off. This diffuser is perfect for a small room and very simple. I use mine in the bathroom. It has a strong mist output and also has an automatic shutoff. It holds 100ML of water so is perfect for such a small room. It would work great in a bathroom, hallway, office or laundry room. I have had this Diffuser the longest and have had no trouble with it ever and that is what makes it my second favorite. It is also BPA free!! You can get the InsaNatural Diffuser on Amazon HERE.
My third favorite Essential Oil Diffuser is the ZAQ Paradise Glass Essential Oil Diffuser. Now this is not your normal diffuser, more of a statement of art. It's a large glass dome and has rotating colors. You can also leave on one color or shut them off. It also has the automatic shutoff feature. I have this one by itself on a table where we do our work and homeschooling. Do not order this thinking it will fit on a table with a ton of other stuff, or your bedside table. This diffuser is HUGE to look at and holds 200ML of water so lasts around 6 hours or half a day. The interior of the Diffuser is plastic but you only can see the glass dome. It also works as an ionizer. The price is really good considering what you're getting. It's perfect for a living room, or open space. You can get the ZAQ Paradise Glass Diffuser on Amazon HERE.
Cleaning your Essential Oil Diffuser is JUST as important as cleaning your body. If you do not clean them regularly the oils can destroy them, clog them or literally cause them to come apart when using citrus oils. I have tried numerous ways to clean but I have found these are the best.
Clean out weekly with a soft cloth or paper towel dipped in white distilled vinegar. Use a q-tip to clean the little tights spots and to remove harder oils. This is ESPECIALLY important if you use mainly citrus oils. Some diffusers state to not use them at all, although I know these three with regular cleaning has been no problem. DO NOT ever let citrus oils sit in your plastic diffuser without water. It's unhealthy because they will literally make the plastic come apart and will break your diffuser.
Sometimes you will find even with regular cleaning your diffuser will stop running. Normally the motor will not come on but you have lights. If this is the case (or you know your lax about cleaning weekly) try pouring a small amount of white distilled vinegar in your diffuser and then turn it on. Only let it run for a minute or two, any longer could damage it. Pour out the vinegar and replace with just water and also let that run for a minute or two. You should then be good to go and are free to use as normal.
Did you accidentally over pour water into your diffuser and now it won't work right, bubbles over or puddles? A pretty easy fix to this is to remove all the water and let your diffuser air dry. Once it's totally dry, try it again and it should work just fine. Be careful to never overfill because this can ruin your diffuser forever.
I hope these tips helped you. Please feel free to email me at primitivegypsy@aol.com with any questions.

Essential Oils are a recently new hobby of mine. As many of you know I have fibromyalgia and Lupus and all the pain, stress, anxiety and depression that come with them. I used to take tons and tons of script medications. I spent months in bed, years even. One day I was having to take so many pills a day that I started having trouble breathing. That was it, I was scared. I mean I knew for years how bad these supposed medicines were for the rest of my body. But knowing and KNOWING are two different things. From that day forward I started taking my medication only when my pain and anxiety were so severe that I could not function. Around the same time as that we moved back to the west. Away from the humidity it became a bit easier for me to just stop taking them. I went from up to 12 pain pills a day to none on most days and one on bad days. I started going places again and I quit taking basically everything else I was given. So I went from taking like 20 pills a day to a single pain pill, and something for Restless Leg Syndrome maybe 2 times a week. I started paying more attention to my body and the signs of a bad day to come. I stayed home and took nothing when I could do so. I got my life back basically. I went from doing nothing 6 to days a week to doing nothing maybe 1 day a week, at the maximum two.
Not long after we decided to move back to the midwest and the humidity. Most of my problems came rushing back, although I did try harder than previously, and not let them bother me. One day a friend of my moms came over and began telling me how she used herbs and essential oils for her problems. She was much older than me but I have learned over the years those are the people who know what kind of pain I am going through. I was fascinated listening to her talk. Something that could help me, without killing my liver and kidneys? I started looking into it a bit but was kind of scared of the cost. Then I started working for a company who sells Essential Oil Diffusers. THAT was the day that without a doubt changed and probably saved my life. As hard as I tried to not take all those horrid pills I was hurting mentally and physically and desperate for help. I got a diffuser and a couple different oils. At first I just used them to replace my candles. I laugh at myself now because well Essential Oils may smell wonderful but they do so much more than make your house smell nice. After a bit of time I started noticing I wasn't as depressed. I noticed I wasn't near as stressed or anxious. I noticed that while I was in a ton of pain still, I was handling it. Why? What could possibly have caused that? Nothing had changed in my life or so I thought. As I moved around in my job I started reading more about essential oils and realized, it's the oils....this whole time the oils were helping me and I had no idea.
Up to this point I had mainly been using Citrus Oils, Peppermint, common oils. Then one day a bottle of Clary Sage arrived in the mail. One sniff and I felt all my anxiety just melt away. I honestly had no idea what it was even good for. Needless to say I now keep a bottle in my purse, and by my bed. I use clove and a few others for my pain, and yes it helps just as much as anything else does. I just rub it in or mix with a carrier oil. I am allergic to coconut so I use grapeseed oil instead. I use Essential Oils everyday in my Diffusers. I have one in each room, and no they are not all super expensive. I use BellaSentials the most because they are so nice looking, but I also like Zaq Diffusers. It's become a routine in my house to get up, start the diffusers along with the coffee or tea.
Soon after I started using diffusers I started buying (and making) Essential Oil jewelry. There are a ton of them out there but BellaSentials just started carrying these new ones that are so different and cute. They even have a Diffuser for your car. All you do for these is put a couple drops of oil on the included pads and you're good to go. People ask me all the time also what Essential Oils I use. I prefer Barefut Essential Oils and mainly buy from them. There are a few other good companies like Plant Therapy but Barefut are my favorite. They are cost effective and they have sales on different oils every month. They are totally pure and work just as well as those super expensive brands.
Keep watching for more helpful posts about Essential Oils and their uses! I plan on doing a whole series on oils and their uses!
None of the blogs involved in this giveaway received any compensation for this post. Primitive Gypsy may make a small commission from Barefut if you buy from the link below.
BellaSentials Diffusers are one of the largest Essential Oil Diffusers on the market today. The BellaSentials Diffuser can hold up to 400ml of water and diffuse up to 12 hours. You can use your BellaSentials Diffuser all day or all night. The dark bamboo Diffuser has 7 rotating lights and can be stopped on any color you prefer or totally turned off. The light bamboo diffuser has a beautiful blue light which can also be turned off. Left on this light is soft and soothing, and if you can not sleep with any lights, just turn it off and still enjoy the wonderful health benefits.
I have used a BellaSentials Diffuser now for a year and I just love it. So much that I now own all of their Aromatherapy Diffusers and they have a few different models. Each model has an auto shut off feature, leaving you free to fall asleep or leave the house. Essential Oil Diffusers are wonderful your health, and depending on the oil you use can help with many problems like Anxiety, Sleeplessness, Pain, Relaxation, Cold and Flu Prevention and much more. Always make sure to use pure essential oils. We recommend Barefut Essential Oils. They are great oils to use in your BellaSentials Bamboo Diffuser and have great sales every month. Check them out at Barefut.com
One of the other things we love about BellaSentials is that they are determined to only provide quality products and are commited to their customers. All BellaSentials Diffusers are made from BPA free plastic. They also believe in doing whatever they can to make YOU happy. If you're in the market for a new Essential Oil/Aromatherapy Diffuser I can highly recommend them. You can find them at BellaSentials.com
Please remember that Essential Oils are for your health. While essential oils do provide a pleasing scent, the scent depends on the brand and type of oil you use. These are not scented oils. If you are looking for strong oils feel free to try oils like Lime, Orange, Pine, Cinnamon and Clove for a long lasting and strong scent along with the wonderful health benefits they provide.
Please note that you should be 18 to enter and you MUST live in the United States in order to win the BellaSentials Bamboo Diffuser, or have it shipped to an address in the United States.

A good friend of mine who owns Divining Oil Designs is running the most awesome Valentine's Day Sale. I adore her Essential Oil Diffusing Jewelry and I know you will too. She just created a new line of Divinity Bracelets that are on sale for a short time for $15 each, and when you buy one you get a FREE Rose Quartz Stretch Bracelet. Man that is such an awesome deal. You can give your girlfriend, wife, mom or daughter two Essential Oil Bracelets for $15. Where else could you find a deal like that? Not to mention your supporting a small business.
These are the Divinity Bracelets and each is directed for a different Chakra.
Your free bracelet is a beautiful Rose Quartz Chip Bracelet that has a Lava Stone on it. Put a drop of your favorite Essential Oil on it and your good to go.
This is my personal favorite. It is the Third Eye Chakra Bracelet. This bracelet consists of Moonstone, Amethyst, Sodalite, and Lapis Lazuli. See below to read about the attributes of each stone incorporated into this bracelet.
Moonstone: Known as the "Stone of New Beginnings," it is strongly connected to the moon and to the intuition. Like the moon, the stone is reflective and reminds us that the moon waxes and wanes and everything is part of a cycle of change. It's most powerful effect is calming the emotions. This stone is known to enhance psychic abilities and develop clairvoyance, it calms overreactions to situations and emotional triggers and is filled with receptive, passive, feminine energy. Emotionally, Moonstone soothes emotional instability and stress and stabilizes emotions.
Amethyst: Amethyst is the Queen Healing Stone of the Metaphysical Stones. It is an extremely powerful stone and is purple in color. It is extremely beneficial to the mind, calming, and or stimulating. Mentally, it helps to feel less scattered and more focused and in control of your faculties. Amethyst balances out highs and lows, promoting emotional centering. It dispels anger, rages, fear and anxiety and helps alleviate sadness and grief. It is one of the most spiritual stones, promoting love of the divine, giving insights into it's true nature, and encouraging selflessness and spiritual wisdom. This stone stimulates the crown and throat chakra.
Sodalite: Sodalite uses logic with intuition and opens spiritual perception, bringing information down from the higher mind down to the physical level. This stone stimulates the pineal gland and the third eye and deepens meditation. This is an excellent stone for the mind as it eliminates confusion and intellectual bondage. It encourages rational thought, objectivity, truth and intuitive perception. This stone brings about emotional balance and calms panic attacks. It can transform a defensive or oversensitive personality, releasing the core fears, phobias, guilt, and control mechanisms that hold you back from being who you truly are.
Lapis Lazuli: Lapis opens the third eye and balances the throat chakra. It stimulates enlightenment and enhances dream work and psychic abilities, facilitating spiritual journeying and stimulating personal and spiritual power. This stone quickly releases stress, bringing deep peace. It posses enormous serenity and is the key to spiritual attainment. Lapis is a powerful though amplifier. It stimulates the higher faculties of the mind, bringing objectivity and clarity. It helps to confront truth, wherever you find it and to accept what it teaches. It aids in expressing your own opinions and harmonizes conflict. It teaches the value of active listening. It also bonds relationships in love and friendship and aids in expressing feelings and emotions. It dissolves emotional bondage.
I also really love the Solar Plexus Chakra Bracelet. This bracelet consists of Tigers Eye, Citrine, Sunstone, and Orange Aventurine.
Tigers Eye: This stone helps balance the lower chakras and is a protective stone that was traditionally carried as a talisman against ill wishing and curses. It assists in accomplishing goals, recognizing inner resources and promoting clarity of intention. Placed on the navel chakra, Tiger's Eye is excellent for people who are spaced out or non committed. Tiger's Eye heals issues of self worth, self-criticism, and blocked creativity.
Citrine: This stone is known as the "Cheer Me Up Stone." It is a powerful cleanser and it absorbs, transmutes, dissipates, and ground negative energy. It has the ability to cleanse the chakras especially the Solar Plexus and Navel Chakras. It activates the Crown chakra and opens the intuition. It revitalizes the mind and is a happy stone. It promotes the joy in life and releases fear, negative traits, and stops anger. It is a great stone for energizing and recharging.
Sunstone: Sunstone is a joyful light-inspiring stone. Placed on the Solar Plexus, this stone lifts out heavy or repressed emotions and transmutes them. This stone acts as an antidepressant and lifts dark moods. It is effective for increasing self-worth and confidence, encouraging optimism and enthusiasm.
Orange Aventurine: Aventurine is the stone of Prosperity and protects against environmental pollution. It stabilizes ones state of mind, stimulates perception, and enhances creativity. It sees alternatives and possibilities, especially those presented by other people. This stone promotes a feeling of well-being and balances male and female energies.
