I&#8217;m also a fan of body oil and enjoy using it alongside lotion during the winter months. Over the holidays, I tried a few oils from <a href=\"http:\/\/mulleinandsparrow.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mullein &amp; Sparrow<\/a>, a Brooklyn-based, small-batch botanical store, and instantly fell in love.<\/p>\n<p>Lemongrass and lavender are my two very favorite essential oils, and Mullein &amp; Sparrow carries body oils made from each scent. The <a href=\"http:\/\/mulleinandsparrow.com\/collections\/body-care\/products\/mini-lemongrass-mint-body-oil\" target=\"_blank\">Lemongrass Mint Body Oil<\/a> is a fresh citrus scent that is perfect for waking up on winter mornings. Lemongrass has a calming effect, and paired with mint, it&#8217;s a gorgeous fragrance that gently sinks into your skin as it moisturizes.<\/p>\n<p>Mullein &amp; Sparrow&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/mulleinandsparrow.com\/collections\/body-care\/products\/lavender-blossom-body-oil-limited-edition\" target=\"_blank\">Lavender Blossom<\/a> is also a lovely scent, and my bottle was a limited edition version filled with lavender flowers that is now sold out. The flowers add a romantic touch, but they make application a bit messy. I think I prefer the plain oil without any flowers added. Still, it&#8217;s a gorgeous fragrance that will carry me into the spring.<\/p>\n<p>I also tried a small bottle of <a href=\"http:\/\/mulleinandsparrow.com\/collections\/facial\/products\/mini-facial-serum-immortelle-myrrh\" target=\"_blank\">Immortelle &amp; Myrrh Facial Serum<\/a>, mostly out of curiosity. I don&#8217;t usually have much luck with facial oils, but I&#8217;ve been using a few drops with my morning moisturizer and it seems to be working well. A little goes a long way, so I&#8217;m not in danger of running out anytime soon. The company makes several facial oils and serums, and there&#8217;s one for every skin issue.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m really thrilled with these beautiful oils and I&#8217;m hoping to try more of Mullein &amp; Sparrow&#8217;s products in the future.<\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"http:\/\/www.walkingwithcake.com\/?p=7888\"><\/div><script>\r\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\r\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1395755;\r\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\r\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have come to love essential oils, and I use them for many things every day.
