Guest guest Posted January 18, 2002 Report Share Posted January 18, 2002 Hello, Thought I would share - each year my town has a Founders Day street fair, and since we are a local business on the main strip if we don't put something out the town will rent the space to a vendor, we usually hire a band and just enjoy. Last year my family convinced me to make up a few bottles of oils, their favorite massage blend and what my sister the sun worshipper deemed as the sunburn cure- tea tree and vitamin E. I intended to only give it away to people I knew if they were interested , but my daughter had other ideas, after a few hours I couldn't understand why I was getting these odd looks, turns out my daughter was running around shoving the tea tree under peoples noses, telling them how great it was for sunburn- one wiff and they ran FAST- So at the end of the day, humbled- our employee who only drinks arizona ginsing by the gallon, because it is healty with that big bag of chips and is known for taking unprescribed, expired antibiodics was complaining that his wife was mad because he had to work and was going to go home to dinner of hot tongue and cold shoulder, so I handed him the nice smelling rose massage oil and said why don't you treat her to a nice back massage- his reply - I am not using that (explicit) ( explicit) its not FDA approved. OK- two weeks later and a really bad sunburn, could I have some of that sunburn oil- ( yeah right) I turned into the oil nazi - no oil for you! That was my first and last attempt - now I am more than happy to give oils to open minded people ( who usually are the ones that my husband has bragged to) Emryldgea- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised by this reaction. I know that many people are leery of oils for therapeutic use, but *massage oil*? Why would this guy think that massage oil has to be FDA approved? Even people who don't believe in aromatherapy usually have no qualms at all about buying and using massage oils and bath oils. I don't know... I just found that reaction to be quite strange. -- Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
