Hi
What is rubbing alcohol and where could I get it? Also not sure about what to buy for distilled water.

Rubbing alcohol is in your first aid area of the pharmacy. Like with peroxide and band aids, etc. it’s clear and is usually about .89 cents a bottle. Distilled water is usually in the same aisle as drinking water however it is clearly marked as distilled.

Hi,
Can you use purified water or filtered water?

Hi there, awesome idea for on-the-go!
I don’t have bergamot oil. Could I substitute another oil? Does it matter which oils are used, or can there be different combinations?
Thanks!
Kelli says
Hi Tiffany, I’ll research and see if I can find a suitable substitute for you. I’ll let you know if I do. 🙂 Kelli
Kelli says
Tiffany, Peppermint works well or even Thieves. Honestly, most any other oil could work for this particular recipe. 🙂 Kelli
