How to Get Started

Ingredients

Supporting your immune system doesn’t have to be complicated. With a few natural ingredients and mindful routines, you can strengthen your body, soothe symptoms, and support overall wellness.

Step 1: Gather your essentials

  • Essential oils: Eucalyptus, lemon, peppermint, and frankincense can help ease coughs, colds, and sinus discomfort.

  • Carrier oils: Jojoba, sweet almond, or grapeseed oils to safely dilute essential oils for topical application.

  • Herbs & supplements: Ginger, turmeric, or magnesium to support gut health and reduce inflammation.

  • B Calm tools: Use your diffuser, roller balls, or inhalers to integrate essential oils into your daily routine.

Step 2: Create simple routines

  • Diffuse essential oils during work, study, or rest to support breathing and mood.

  • Roll-on blends: Combine 3–5 drops of essential oils with 10ml carrier oil for a quick, portable immunity boost on the chest, wrists, or temples (also great for migraine support).

  • Warm baths or soaks: Add mineral salts and a few drops of essential oils to calm muscles, support circulation, and reduce tension.

Step 3: Make it a habit
Consistency is key. Simple daily rituals — a diffuser session, a calming bath, or a topical roller — help your body respond better to seasonal changes, stress, and minor illnesses.

Safety & Precautions

Always perform a patch test 24 hours before applying any DIY formula to your face. Never apply undiluted essential oils directly to skin. Pregnant women and children should consult healthcare providers before use. Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately.

TIPS

For Coughs & Colds:

  • Eucalyptus and peppermint can help open airways and ease congestion.

  • Frankincense helps reduce inflammation and support respiratory wellness.

🌿 For Migraines:

  • Lavender and peppermint essential oils can reduce headache intensity when applied topically to temples or diffused in the air.

  • Combine with magnesium-rich baths or sprays for added relief.

💚 For Gut Health & Immunity:

  • Warm baths with Epsom salts or magnesium flakes can aid relaxation, indirectly supporting digestion and immune function.

  • Herbal teas like ginger or chamomile support gut comfort and calm the nervous system.

Questions? We Have Answers

DIY Health FAQ

How long do DIY formulas last?

Most DIY formulas last 3-6 months when stored properly in dark glass bottles away from heat and direct sunlight. Essential oils naturally preserve formulas, but adding a natural preservative extends shelf life (witch hazel). Always label with creation date and discard if you notice changes in colour, scent, or consistency. Refrigeration can extend longevity for water-based formulas.

Can I use these formulas if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, but start with lower essential oil concentrations and always patch test first. Dilute oils more generously in carrier oils and introduce one new ingredient at a time. If you have conditions like psoriasis, consult a dermatologist before use. Our tutorials include sensitivity modifications for each formula.

Where should I source ingredients?

Purchase therapeutic-grade essential oils from certified suppliers with third-party testing. Carrier oils should be cold-pressed and organic. We recommend B Calm oils that provide detailed sourcing information and purity certifications for maximum quality and safety. email hello@bcalm.co.uk for more information.
