Away with Lice!

It’s hard to believe, but back-to-school season is already upon us. And while we’re excited to whisk our little ones off to school for another year of learning, we pray they don’t come back with every parent’s dreaded fear: head lice! And so this year we turn to lavender. Yes, you read right. Lotus Aroma’s Back-to-School Survival Kit, which boasts the germicidal natural plant, is a soothing preventative solution. Before sending them off to school, and once they return home, we spray the True Lavender Floral Water on our little ones’ heads, and rub it in. We also rub it down the nape of the neck, and behind the ears. And then, we follow with a few drops of the True Lavender Essential Oil, which we apply on the same areas to complete this bug-repelling treatment. Lavender to the rescue!

$26 at drugstores.

    Wish I had known about lavender instead - we treated my daughter with tea tree oil all through public school(she hated the smell) - she got it 8 times in one year, before we got a little crazed with prevention.. she even wrote a book about her experiences with the nasty little devils - augh - that was an easier task then all the nit-picking.. :o
