DIY Essential Oil Gifts for Men

I don’t know about you but I always struggle with what to buy the men in my life! I find buying gifts for my dad and step-dad, to be the hardest! My husband on the other hand usually has more than enough ideas… usually of the gamer variety!

Today I thought I’d share a collection of recipes I have found that use essential oils and are perfect for any man on your list! 

There is something here for every man out there, even if he is skeptical of essential oils! My husband used to be an essential oil skeptic but after a few experiences, he now uses them fairly often! He would love any one of these gifts and has already given his stamp of approval on my essential oil soap (see recipe below). 

Try making one of these recipes to give as a gift for birthdays, Father’s Day, Christmas or just because!
