I encourage you to do your own research before adding essential oils into your own wellness routine. Please use this blog post as general information and not as replacement for medical advice.

Symptoms Of Seasonal Allergies

Sometimes it’s hard to know the difference between allergies and the common cold.

I never had issues with allergies until I was in my 30’s. For the longest time I thought I suffered from frequent colds when in reality it was seasonal allergies. Here are the symptom differences between allergies and colds.

How Do You Use Essential Oils For Allergies?

Essential oils can be used in a variety of ways for allergy relief.

You can make roller bottle blends to apply directly to your skin irritation from itching, hives, or a rash caused by allergies.

Diffuse into the air to help with respiratory issues.

You can even use them to prevent the spread or formation of home allergens like mold and dust mites. Make the spray blend below and apply it where allergens most commonly form. Bathrooms, mattresses, dark humid basement etc.

Best Essential Oils For Allergies

Tea Tree oil has anti-fungal, antibacterial, and anti viral properties. Use in topical blends for skin irritations.

Lavender is a soothing gentle oil that relives inflammation and encourages relaxation when applied topically or breathed in. Lavender essential oil is wonderful to treat a sinus headache or other hay fever symptoms.

Peppermint oil helps with opening the airways for easy breathing when suffering from nasal congestion.

Roman Chamomile soothes symptoms of skin allergies.

Lemon oil is known for its antioxidant and antibacterial properties. It boosts the immune system while helping to get rid of toxins in your body.

Eucalyptus essential oil is one of my personal favorites when suffering from the common cold and allergy respiratory system issues. It relieves sinus congestion and works as an anti-inflammatory.

Frankincense is known as the king of oils. It has shown to have anti-inflammatory properties that help alleviate sinus pressure and congestion. You can add it to a roller bottle to sooth a skin allergic reaction or diffuse indoors during allergy season.

Allergy Essential Oil Diffuser Blend

Choose an oil blend from the recipes below and add to your diffuser, fill the rest of the way with distilled water. Follow your diffuser’s instructions for water capacity.

Allergy Essential Oil Roller Blend

To make roller blends add each essential oil to 10ml amber glass bottle then top off with carrier oil. I personally use fractionated coconut oil but you could also use sweet almond oil. Secure the rollerball, tighten lid and shake well. Use multiple times a day as needed.

Use this spray bottle blend to prevent dust mites and mold in your home. It’s safe to use on most surfaces from your mattress to kitchen and bathroom, but always patch test on a small area first.

You will need a 16oz amber glass spray bottle.

To glass bottle add essential oils and fill the rest of the way with alcohol, witch hazel, or distilled water. Tighten the spray nozzle and shake well. For best results, let the blend sit for about 10 minutes before first use.

There are many reputable essential oil companies. When choosing a brand make sure they disclose the botanical name, country of origin, how the oil is sourced, and complete transparency of testing results.
