It’s a crazy world out there right now.
My family is on our third week of social distancing/safer at home and we’re definitely starting to go a little stir-crazy!
That’s why I was so excited to receive my first Simply Earth recipe box in the mail last week.
It’s a monthly subscription box that has everything you need to make 6 easy essential oil recipes!
Maybe you’re new to essential oils or maybe you’re looking for an easy way to create your own recipes. Either way, Simply Earth makes it easy to do!
Each Simply Earth subscription box has a theme and April’s theme is “Happy Home”.
I have always believed that our homes should be a happy place.
And in light of the global crisis, that couldn’t be more true! Your house is your haven from the rest of the world, whether you’re in quarantine, self-isolation, or just “safer at home”.
So how can you make your home a “happy home” when you’re stuck inside?
Well, let’s get right into it!
Simply Earth gifted me their April Subscription Box for free. But all opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. Read my full disclosure here.
SIMPLY EARTH
As someone who is newer to essential oils, there are a few things I really love about Simply Earth:
👉 Every batch is GC/MS tested for purity (which means their oils are free of fillers and contaminants).
👉 Their oils are sourced from small, ethical farms.
👉 They offer oils for less than HALF THE PRICE of other essential oil companies.
👉 They have an amazing return policy – free returns for 365 days.
👉 And Simply Earth donates 13% of all profit to organizations who fight against human trafficking!
You can order single oils, blends, carrier oils, roll-ons, and accessories directly on their website…
Or you can sign up for their monthly subscription box, which is a STEAL!
Here’s how the subscription works:
Each month, you will receive a recipe box that has everything you need for 6 recipes:
-
- 4 full-size essential oils
- 6 recipe cards
- Containers to make the recipes
- Any necessary extras you may need
Compared to other essential oil companies, that’s a $150 value for only $39.99!!
And you also get a Big Bonus Box every 6 months that is full of different supplies:
-
- 6 roll-on bottles
- 6 amber glass bottles
- Fractionated Coconut oil
- Solid Coconut oil
- Almond Oil
- Beeswax
WHAT’S IN THE RECIPE BOX
The Home Detox theme couldn’t be more fitting right now!
Whether you’re looking for some toxin-free spring cleaning recipes or you’re wanting to avoid COVID-19, the Home Detox Box is the perfect way to do it.
Let’s Take a Look Inside!
All of the oils in the April Recipe Box are perfect for cleaning and detoxing your home.
CLEAN AND FRESH BLEND
This blend is made with all kinds of oils that are really good at fighting germs, bacteria, and viruses.
LEMONGRASS
Lemongrass was used in traditional Indian medicine for treating infectious illnesses and fevers.
PEPPERMINT
This oil has anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and antiseptic properties, so it’s another great way to fight off germs in your home!
TEA TREE
Last but not least, Tea Tree oil is known for natural cleaning and respiratory support.
You also get 6 recipe cards plus additional supplies to help you as you’re creating the recipes.

THE RECIPES
I think my favorite part of the Simply Earth subscription box is the recipes.
Since my kids are doing all of their schoolwork at home until August (at least), I just don’t have the time to go searching the internet for essential oil recipes.
Having 6 different recipe cards provided in my recipe box is a huge timesaver! Especially when they are recipes that are made to keep my home clean and free from bacteria…
Given that we’re currently fighting a global health crisis, we could all benefit from a Home Detox, and my house is no exception.
So I set to work right away and created the recipes. Then I spent the next few days cleaning some (pretty neglected) areas of my home.
GUNK REMOVER
My family is currently living in my late mother’s house, so we have a couple of furniture pieces from the early ’90s.
One of which is a set of wood bar stools. My mom brought them home when I was about 16, and since then, they have been used by all 4 of my kids when they eat at our kitchen bar.
Needless to say, they are COVERED with stuck-on food gunk!
Over the years, I’ve tried a lot of different techniques to get the random pieces of food-gunk off of them, but nothing has ever worked.
So this Gunk Remover recipe from Simply Earth was the ultimate test… And it worked!
I poured a small amount of gunk remover on the arms of the bar stools and let it sit for a few minutes. Then I used a warm washcloth to wipe the stuck-on food-gunk, and it came off right away!
If you have any number of kids in your home, you need to try this recipe ASAP!
SHINE SPRAY
I used the shine spray to tackle the nastiness that is our sliding glass door.
We haven’t been able to see our reflection in the glass for quite some time because of all the doggy nose prints.
And the mud! Our black lab climbs trees and rolls around in puddles in our backyard. Then she comes and rubs her body against the glass door, begging to be let in.
Believe me when I say that this sliding door was disgusting! I’m embarrassed to even put the before image on the internet. 😳
The first image was taken before, and the second one was taken after I used the Simply Earth shine spray. 😲
I sprayed the outside of the door with the Simply Earth shine spray, and all the dirt, mud, and doggy nose prints came right off. I didn’t even have to put any muscle into it!
And I could hardly smell the vinegar, which is a plus in my house since my family doesn’t really like the scent.
GROUT SCRUB
Another area of my home that was in need of some TLC was the grout around the tiles in our bathtub.
I’ll be the first to admit that it was pretty bad…
So I mixed the ingredients, per the directions on the recipe card, and then I applied the grout scrub. And I was blown away!
I had a hard time getting my camera to focus on a blank wall, but you can easily see where I applied the grout scrub and where I didn’t. The grout on the left side of the image is clean and white, while the grout on the right side is still dirty.

BEESWAX FURNITURE POLISH
I had recently organized the drawers in my nightstand, but it still needed a good dusting and polishing. This beeswax furniture polish was the perfect solution!
First, I took everything off the top of the nightstand and dusted everything.
Then, I liberally applied the beeswax furniture polish with a washcloth and buffed it into the surface.
It polished my nightstand nicely and it smelled wonderful! There’s something refreshing about cleaning with essential oils compared to regular household cleaners.
WORK IT ROLL-ON
I was hesitant to believe that an essential oil roll-on could energize and uplift me enough to get some spring cleaning done.
But this roll-on truly had a major impact on my motivation!
After I finished trying Simply Earth’s April recipes, I proceeded to make a few extra all-natural cleaners.
If you’ve been around this blog before, you know that I usually have no motivation to clean whatsoever. 😕 But the Work It Roll-On energized me enough to get started. And once you get started, it’s always easy to keep going!
I mopped the kitchen floor, cleaned our doorknobs, and light switches with an all-purpose spray, and I made a room deodorizer.
HAPPY HOME DIFFUSER BLEND
I had high hopes for this diffuser blend, and it definitely lived up to my expectations, and then some!
My husband usually complains whenever I diffuse essential oils. I figure it’s because he’s not used to the aroma, but it’s hard to enjoy my diffuser if he’s complaining every time he walks into the room. 🤷♀️
I have been diffusing this blend every single day for the past week and he hasn’t complained once! It’s a fresh and happy scent that is just right for spring.
And in light of everything going on across the world, we need our homes to be our happy place right now.
Being cooped up inside for the unforeseeable future is no joke. So we might as well as work with what we’ve got and do the best we can.
The Simply Earth Subscription Box is a fun and budget-friendly way to maximize your time at home.
ESSENTIAL OILS FOR BUSY MOMS
If you’re a busy mom who has recently been thrust into the world of homeschooling and/or working from home, the Simply Earth Subscription Box is a fantastic idea!
In each box, you will receive 4 full-size bottles of essential oils, 6 curated recipes from a certified aromatherapist, and all the necessary supplies.
It saves you the hassle of having to search for your own recipes and diffuser blends, and we could all use a little more time right now.
