Hi @x Hedge, I've tried them all.  Let us know if you like them or what you think about them!  I'd love to hear your opinion on these!!!!

I ordered three seasonal oils, all pre-2015 formulas. Only one was on clearance.

I'm not interested in the corresponding CCs because the older seasonals don't meet my needs, but the oils will be fine.

 

This way if I'm crazy for one of these fragrances I can still enjoy it.

I've become a big fan of WEN oils in the last few years. They're so versatile.

What all do you do with the oils? I’m looking for more ways to use mine Smiley Happy 

 

I love the smell of all of the oils I’ve tried so far, and the two I love for scalp treatments so far are tea tree and pomegranate, they are really stimulating. Fig is an excellent oil for me to use after cleansing on my long hair, it makes my hair so soft and bouncy. 

 

I feel like they are so precious, especially the seasonals!

@Souperkrys

I have a lot of very dry hair, so I add at least 6-10 drops of oil to every leave-in.

After hair is dry I can strategically place a few more drops of oil on my ends and scalp, getting the benefit, and taking the intense fragrance with me, without my hair looking greasy or slick.

 

If oil would show in your crown, spread a drop in the hairline at your neck or right behind your ears instead.

 

I use oils on skin head to toe with my 319 NIBT, including cuticles and nails. 

 

I add TT cc & oil to my footsoaks, which reinvigorates my tired, achy feet. Also rub TT oil between toes and into my toenails to ward off fungal growth.

 

Also read from fellow Wenners TT oil makes a good mosquito repellant which I couldn't try last year as I was raising kittens during mosquito season. I will be applying TT oil to face, neck, and arms this summer tho.

 

I use CCs for the base of sugar scrubs & add fragrant oil too.

I'll add a squirt of oil to my Remoist mask.

 

At bedtime I like to rub a few drops of my very favorite oils into my hands, press the oil lightly into my face, then cup my hands over my nose and inhale deeply several times. STP is especially good for this as there is no fragrance contributed by the blend of oils themselves. This helps me pick out the more subtle aspects of the scent.

 

I bought 3 bottles of peppermint extract and I'm going to experiment whomping up a pest repellant (ants and squirrels) using TT oil with peppermint extract and a little H2o in a small sprayer bottle.

 

I actually love the smell of eucalyptus and used to be able to buy sprays of leafy stems in the floral section of grocery stores. They would scent a whole room for weeks. Can't buy this any more so I'm thinking of trying TT/Eucalyptus oil on cotton batting. I'm thinking maybe sachets(?) to hang on the front of heat/ac vents, or possibly potpourri. Don't know yet.

@Souperkrys   I use the oils for almost everything. Scalp treatments, foot soaks with Epsom salts ( tea tree) I use it with my 319 NBT's, use it on my nails and cuticles every night. Use it to remove my makeup.  I just rub it on my feet as well.   I love every oil

My toenails tend to be really dry...and foot cream or lotion isn't enough. I rub TT oil into them every morning right after I shower, while my feet are still damp to seal in the moisture. It's really helping! Once I start polishing my toenails for spring/summer, I'll continue to use the oil, concentrating at the base of the nail. When I remove the polish, I rinse my feet well and apply oil heavily to the entire nail and leave it on overnight. It makes a big difference!

Hi @vermint, My toenails don't get dry but they have ridges in them.  I have that in my fingernails too.  It's funny because my pointer finger nails are smooth but the others, especially the thumbs have them.  Wen NBT helps even this out.    I have special files I use to smooth and seal them.  I"m gonna try putting the oil on them, like you do.

@77yangya I have the same kind of fingernail ridges you do...pointer fingernails are smooth, and thumbs are the worst! NBT is good, but if I reapply every time I wash my hands (which is often) the residue gunks up my computer trackball within a few days, which is a pain to clean, so I don't apply as often as I should. 

 

I've tried filing/smoothing them, and that works for a bit, but as they grow out the ends get all snaggly (is that a word?). I can't win, lol!

@vermint I have an autoimmune which affects my nails, terrible ridges. I found for toenails the best is a weekly foot soak with Epsom salts and tea tree oil.  I  do at home pedis and smooth out the nails afterwards.  I've really neglected myself lately and really need to resume my weekly soaks.
