One of the many joys of Total Life Essential Oils is the versatility. Whether you use the oils within an aromatherapy lifestyle, topically, or around the home and on the go, you can also combine these botanical superstars into custom blends and DIY household cleaners and purifiers. Truly, the ideas are infinite.

And when a brand touts that much versatility and such a multitude of uses, you have to take steps to protect it. Our TLEO scents arrive to you in our signature amber glass bottles, which safeguard your precious essential oils’ purity and longevity, along with our proprietary sealing technology that removes all oxygen from the bottle to prevent the 100% pure oil’s degradation.

The amber glass bottles are environmentally friendly and sustainable, green, clean, reusable, and recyclable. They and the TLEO Amber Accessories made with the glass can be used again and again … indefinitely.

Those are all words you want to hear on Earth Day, right? First, do no harm. These days, it’s an attainable aspiration, and Mother Earth is counting on us to do our part. The more sustainable, reusable, and recyclable TLEO is, the more we Honor the Journey; Honor the Connection; Honor the Source.

What makes this particular type of glass so important in the essential oils world?

The sun’s ultraviolet light, which occurs in wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum, is harmful over time and contributes to oxidation – an enemy to the life expectancy of essential oils.

Amber glass is light-canceling. It gets its rich, dark color from adding sulfur, carbon, and iron during manufacturing. Amber bottles protect essential oils from UV light radiation within the spectrum while blocking light at other wavelengths as well. Clear glass, and even cobalt glass, will not protect essential oils against UV light. Our TLEO amber bottles block damaging sunlight and prevent the degradation and oxidation of our 100% pure essential oils.

TLEO Amber Accessories go hand in hand with our TLEO original amber glass bottles when it comes to sustainability. And this extended family of products can protect and preserve everything you love about TLEO and your aromatic lifestyle.

When you’re getting into the swing of mixology with TLEO scents, you won’t want to store your custom creations in clear bottles – or metallic or reactive containers, which can also contribute to the deterioration of the oils. Use a glass bowl or measuring cup when mixing your signature blends and recipes, and measure out, label, and store your personalized essential oil bliss using:

  • TLEO Amber Roller Bottles
  • TLEO Amber Mini Mist Bottles
  • TLEO Amber Glass Spray Bottle
  • TLEO Amber Large Glass Spray Bottle
  • TLEO Amber Accessories Spray Pumps
  • TLEO Amber Accessories Pipettes
  • TLEO Amber Accessories Labels

Remember to always keep your TLEO singles, TLEO Guardian Blend, TLEO Revitalize Blend, and TLEO Serenity Blend, and your own custom mixes in a cool, dry place, away from moisture, heat, bright interior lighting, and sunlight.

As we celebrate Earth Day and look to uphold all our planet gives to us, everything about the TLEO brand is mindful of sustainability, so that the gifts we graciously receive from Mother Nature herself can be continual. It’s our small gift of thanks to her, a gift that keeps on giving.

Here’s one more Earth Day gift, from us to you:

TLEO Earth Day Celebration Soap

15-18 drops TLEO Lavender

20-25 cubes goat’s milk soap base (or glycerin soap base)

2-4 ounces dried lavender buds

Materials needed:

Nonreactive (glass) mixing bowl

Silicone spatula

Silicone soap mold tray with 6 soap cavities

Directions: Cut 20-25 cubes from the soap base block. In a microwave-safe, nonreactive glass bowl, melt cubes of soap base in the microwave for 30 seconds on high. Remove and stir with a nonreactive silicone spatula. Repeat this process – microwave, then remove and stir – until the soap base is fully melted. Once melted, add TLEO Lavender and dried lavender buds. Stir until well blended. Pour into molds and let them cure overnight.
