Save time and money with my best selling essential oil guides!

Diffusing essential oils is one of the easiest and fastest ways to use essential oils. The great thing about diffusing them is there are so many different ways to do this throughout the day! That’s why I’m sharing these 18 easy ways to diffuse essential oils.

Easy ways to diffuse essential oils

1. Diffuser 

This is one of the most common ways to diffuse essential oils. You can find some great diffusers on Amazon, or most stores are starting to carry them now too!

Here is one of my favorites to use!

2. Car diffuser

These are nice to have, especially on road trips. You can buy car diffusers, or you can make one by:

1. taking a cotton ball or clothes pin
2. adding 2-3 drops of your choice of essential oil
3. sticking it on an air vent in your car

3. Lava bead diffuser necklace

There are so many great options for these diffuser necklaces. Not only can you add a drop or two of your favorite essential oil or blend, but you also can have a beautiful necklace to wear each day. There are some great ones you can find on Amazon and Etsy.

4. Lava bead diffuser bracelet

Just like the lava bead necklace, the diffuser bracelet only requires a couple drops of essential oils. They are easy to use, and there are many different styles and designs to choose from!

5. Lava bead diffuser ring

This is another great option, especially if you love wearing rings! Here is one I love!

6. Felt diffuser jewelry

These are just another type of diffuser jewelry. Instead of beads, they have felt pads inside of them that you drop essential oils onto. Here are some great ones!

7. Clothes pin

This is a great option, especially if you are low on cash. You simply add a couple drops of essential oils onto the pin and place it where you want. A couple of great places to try are clipping them on vents or fans. That way, when the air blows, it will blow the aroma from the essential oils.

8. Cotton ball

These work similar to clothes pins. You add a drop or two of your choice of essential oil. These work great in cars too!

9. Spray bottle

These are not only easy to make but easy to use as well. Simply add some essential oils into your choice of spray bottle (make sure it’s a glass spray bottle like this one). Then add a squirt of witch hazel and fill with water.

There are a lot of different recipes you could try including these:

10. Hands

Simply place a drop or two in the palm of your hand, cup over your mouth, and inhale 3 deep breathes.

11. Directly from the bottle

This is such a simple tip, but one that works well in a bind. All you have to do is take the cap off the essential oil bottle, hold it up to your nose, and inhale 3 deep breaths directly from the bottle.

12. Toilet paper roll

Adding a drop or two on the inside of the toilet paper roll in your bathroom helps to keep it smelling fresh.

13. Stuffed animal

This is a great option, especially if you have kids. You an add a drop or two to a stuffed animal that will help diffuse the oils. Just make sure it’s a kid friendly essential oil.

14. Baths

This is one of my favorite easy ways to diffuse essential oils without a diffuser. You can simply add a couple of drops to your bath (with 1/2-1 cup of Epsom salts) or make bath bombs to use.

15. Shower

Adding a couple of drops to the bottom of your shower floor when taking a shower helps to diffuse the essential oils. You can use citrus oils or Eucalyptus in the mornings or calming oils like Lavender in the evenings.

16. Ornaments

You can get ornaments for your Christmas tree, and add a couple of drops to them in order to easily diffuse essential oils. Here are some great ones from Amazon you could use!

Some festive oils to keep on hand for this time of the year are:

• Cinnamon Bark
• Clove
• Douglas Fir
• Siberian Fir

17. Keychains

These are perfect to use on the go!

Here are some cute ones to add to your keychain to easily diffuse the essential oils of your choice!

18. Furnace filter

Adding a couple drops of essential oils to your furnace filter is also an easy way to diffuse!
