Ingredients


20 drops Bergamot
20 drops Ylang Ylang
10 drops Geranium
10 drops Lemon
8 drops Coriander Seed
5 drops Tangerine
5 drops Jasmine
3 drops Roman Chamomile
3 drops Palmarosa
3 drops Rose Otto
Warnings - Bergamot oil can cause photosensitivity. If you use it on your skin, avoid exposure to the sun or sunbeds for 12 hours (unless you're using a non photosensitive brand). Ylang ylang oil is best avoided by babies and young children. Lemon oil can cause photosensitivity. If you use it on your skin, either use a steam distilled lemon oil (which doesn't cause photosensitivity) or dilute to 2% or less or avoid exposure to the sun or sunbeds for 12 hours. Palmarosa oil is best avoided during pregancy and while breastfeeding.

Ingredients

Instructions

Add all of the essential oils to an essential oil dropper bottle and mix well.

To make a Joy roller recipe, add 8 drops of the master blend to a 10 ml roller bottle and fill the rest with carrier oil. To diffuse, add 3-5 drops of the master blend to a 100 ml diffuser or 6-10 drops to a 200 ml diffuser.

If you don't have all of these oils, you could try a similar blend from another high quality supplier. The closest we could find is Rocky Mountain's Love. It has 5 of the same oils (Lemon, Geranium, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang, and Rose), plus Mandarin which is very similar to Tangerine. It doesn't have Coriander, Jasmine, Roman Chamomile or Palmarosa and the proportions of the oils are different so it's not a particularly close match, but it's similar and could be worth a try to see if you like it.

You could also try making a similar blend with substitutions for oils that you don't have. Obviously the more substitutions you make, the more your blend will be different to the Young Living blend, but try them and see what you think. You might like the substitutions just as much or even more:

  • If you don't have Coriander, try Patchouli or Cedarwood
  • if you don't have Tangerine, try Mandarin or Sweet Orange
  • if you don't have Jasmine, try an extra 5 drops of Ylang Ylang
  • if you don't have Roman Chamomile, try German Chamomile or Lavender
  • if you don't have Palmarosa, try Neroli or 3 extra drops of Geranium
  • if you don't have Rose, try 3 extra drops of Geranium or Palmarosa

Use your copycat Joy blend to promote happiness and confidence, for romance or to help release emotional blocks.
