Aromatherapy...in Paint??

Tuesday November 22, 2005
We make aromatherapy soap...we make aromatherapy candles...we may even use aromatherapy essential oils...but in paint? Evidently so. I found this post from a fellow blogger at "BloggingBaby" that talks about a company, Anna Sova Luxury Organics, that is not only making natural, organic paints...(a good thing)...but includes an aromatherapy option with the paint. I seriously have to wonder if they really are using pure essential oils, which wouldn't seem to last long - or whether it's just a marketing gimmick. But it wouldn't make sense to add a synthetic fragrance oil to paint that has been spefically designed to be organic. Who knows? I think I'll just stick to my candles...at least with them I can use aromatherapy to help me relax, envigorate, create or sleep...without re-painting the room each time I want to affect a different mood!
