Most of us are wearing face masks in public these days, right? It’s the smart and compassionate thing to do in our worldwide efforts to curb the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19. Of course wearing a mask isn’t the most comfortable experience, but I have a suggestion to make it more pleasant—make your own mask spray. Here is my recipe.
FACE MASK SPRAY
2 oz. bottle with spray top
small funnel that fits the spray bottle
1 tsp. organic alcohol (I prefer Reyka vodka.) OR 1 oz. witch hazel
spring water or filtered tap water
6 – 8 drops Quantum Immune Support vibrational essence blend from Moss Island Alchemy
6 – 8 drops Emerge vibrational essence blend from Moss Island Alchemy
2 drops thyme essential oil
1 drop frankincense essential oil
1 drop clove essential oil
Using the funnel, add the organic alcohol to the bottle and then fill with spring water or filtered water. (Don’t fill to the very top; leave room to add drops of vibrational essences and oils and the sprayer mechanism.) Alternatively, you can fill the bottle halfway with witch hazel and top it off with the water.
Add the drops of Quantum Immune Support and Emerge vibrational essence blends. Cap the bottle and shake. Uncap the bottle and add the essential oils. Cap it again and shake to mix all the ingredients. Spray on your mask either before or after putting it on. I like to spritz my entire face (eyes closed!) before masking up.
I chose thyme, frankincense, and clove essential oils for their traditional uses to cleanse the atmosphere and protect against disease—and because I like the fragrance combination. I also used fewer drops of oil than most recipes for facial sprays because I wanted to keep the scent light. If you’d like a stronger scent, add more drops of essential oil, but PLEASE remember that essential oils need to be diluted before they are used on the skin, so don’t overdo it.
Other oils with purifying, protective, or antiviral/antifungal/antibacterial qualities include rosemary, eucalyptus, white sage, palo santo, juniper berry, and lemon. All of these will work well with Quantum Immune Support and Emerge essences, so I encourage you to experiment with your own fragrances preferences.
Thank you for using my Moss Island Alchemy vibrational essences to support you through this time of pandemic. Stay healthy. Stay safe. Stay kind.
