Celebrating Fathers Day

With Fathers Day quickly approaching, if you are anything like me, you are brainstorming ideas for gifts to get that special man in your life. Whether it is your own father, or your children's father, or even if its your brother, or your son, that is a daddy, we still like to celebrate dads everywhere, on this special day!

Often times though, I wonder "What do you buy for the man who has everything?" How do I go shop for gifts for men that I have bought hundreds of gifts for, over the years? So this year, I decided to make some special Do-It-Yourself gifts, for all the Fathers in our lives.

So many men today have beards, and I find them constantly grooming their beards, trimming it, and even trying to soften their ruggedness, so why not make them a homemade beard balm, using a simple recipe including doTERRA Essential Oils.

This beard balm is an all-natural, leave-in conditioner that nourishes and moisturizes the beard. It stops dryness, tangles, and frizz while bringing out the beard's natural luster.

2 teaspoons beeswax
1 teaspoon shea butter
3 teaspoons doTERRA Fractionated Coconut Oil
½ teaspoon vitamin E oil
2 drops Cedarwood Essential Oil

2. Place jar in saucepan with one–two inches of boiling water.
3. Stir ingredients until melted and thoroughly combined.
4. Remove from heat and let rest for three minutes.
5. Add essential oils and stir
6. Pour mixture into an empty tin or airtight glass jar.
7. Let balm rest one–two hours before use.

We all know that man who likes his own space. That man who has his hideaway room in the house. His "ManCave". His getaway room. Basically his room for his toys, his musical instruments, his video games, his sports trophies and posters, and maybe even his workout gym equipment.

So why not make him a great, manly smelling, room spray? Help that man to keep his room smelling fresh and clean, and manly at the same time!

"Man Cave Spray" label (optional of course)

Using witch hazel or vodka will help to preserve the blend over time. If you don’t have these ingredients then be sure to definitely used distilled water (not tap) and make a smaller batch so it will be used over a shorter length of time.
