Essential oils from various plants are less fixed and more volatile, which means they tend to evaporate easily. In contrast, so-called "fixed oils" like olive and other cooking oils do not evaporate even in high temperatures. As such, essential oils are popular in aromatherapy.
While there are many kinds of essential oils, some of them should be included in your herbal medicine cabinet and prepping stockpile, such as lavender and peppermint essential oils. (h/t to BackwoodsHome.com)
Eucalyptus essential oil
Eucalyptus essential oil, which has a "cooling" effect on the skin, is a natural insect repellent. Eucalyptus essential oil has a crisp and distinctive smell.
When used in aromatherapy, it can help you clear your mind and improve your focus. Eucalyptus essential oil can also be used in massages, steam inhalation and as a bath additive.
Lavender essential oil
Lavender essential oil can be used for skin care and to support natural healing, especially for rashes, scrapes and bug bites. It has a calming effect and can be used in aromatherapy to relieve insomnia and stress. (Related: Prepper first aid: 10 Must-haves for your natural medicine first aid kit.)
Peppermint essential oil
Peppermint essential oil can be used topically or for aromatherapy to support your overall health and well-being. You can also use it to keep your breath fresh or to freshen your home naturally.
