CLEARANCE - Defend Essential Oil Blend

ALL SALES OF CLEARANCE OILS ARE FINAL

While doing a routine quality check of our current stock of Defend, we noticed that the labels on all the bottles have started to yellow and discolor. The oils themselves are still sealed, stored in ideal conditions, and perfectly safe to use—but we know appearances matter, so we’re offering these bottles at a steep discount to reflect their cosmetic imperfections and age.

These bottles were filled and sealed in February 2023 and stored in dark amber glass bottles in a cool, dry warehouse ever since. They’re now just over two years old, which means they may not be quite as potent as they were fresh—but they’re still wonderfully effective for diffusing, cleaning, and other aromatic uses. (We don’t recommend applying it directly to the skin at this age, but it’s still perfectly fine to use in highly diluted applications like foaming hand soap.)

We’re offering these bottles for just $7.50 (regularly $24.99)—that’s 70% off! OGT Plus members can grab them for only $6. We have fewer than 500 bottles left, and once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.

We’re likely to be discontinuing Defend entirely, simply because we haven’t been able to sell through our stock before nearing the expiration window. If you love this blend and feel strongly that we should keep it in our lineup, we’d truly love to hear from you!

Does going outside during cold and flu season ever feel like playing a game of Russian roulette? You just never know what kind of germs you’re going to run into!

Things like washing your hands, eating a balanced diet, and getting your flu shot do wonders to shore up your internal defenses (AKA your immune system). But I always add one more line of defense - my Defend Essential Oil Blend!

Defend is based on the centuries-old Thieves essential oil blend. Some historians believe it originated in the early 1400s in France during the bubonic plague outbreak. Legend has it that a group of four thieves avoided the deadly effects of the plague by applying the blend all over their bodies. 

I’m fairly certain that story has never been substantiated, and I would absolutely never recommend walking into a room full of bubonic plague victims with nothing but essential oils for protection. But many of the oils in Defend (like peppermint and eucalyptus) are known to have antiviral properties, making it a useful addition to your immunity support toolkit!

 “I love this product! I have been diffusing Defend in my kitchen for over a year. My family of 6 made it through last school year with very little sickness. I work with preschoolers who love spreading germs and have stayed healthy. Highly recommend Defend!” - Sue H.

Why You’ll Love It

• Irresistible Fall-Inspired Aroma: Breathe in the warm, comforting scent of clove, cinnamon, and other purifying botanicals that transform any space into a cozy sanctuary. Unlike medicinal-smelling alternatives, Defend creates an atmosphere guests will compliment the moment they walk in. "This is my MOST favorite oil blend in the world. It smells like Fall and cloves and cinnamon. If they sold it in a gallon jug, I'd buy it." - Carla K.

When everyone around you seems to be catching something, Defend gives you a sense of agency and confidence in your family's health. "Man the battleships!

Ingredients

Cinnamon, Lemon, Clove Bud, Lime, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Peppermint, Spearmint, and Oregano Essential Oils

How To Use

1. Diffuse It

Add 5-7 drops of Defend to your diffuser to fill your home with purifying, antimicrobial goodness! The warm, spicy aroma of clove, cinnamon, and peppermint creates a cozy atmosphere that's perfect during cold and flu season.

No electric diffuser? No problem! Make your own by filling a small glass container about 75% full with fractionated coconut oil. Add 40-50 drops of Defend blend and place 4-6 bamboo skewers into the container. Perfect for bathrooms, entryways, or small spaces!

2. Add To Soap

Boost your hand-washing routine by adding 1-2 drops of Defend to your handful of soap before washing. You can also add 1 drop to a squirt of hand sanitizer when you're out and about for added peace of mind!

Pro Tip: Create your own immune-supporting hand soap by adding 15-20 drops of Defend to an 8-oz bottle of unscented liquid soap.

3. Make A DIY Room Spray

Create your own purifying room spray by combining 20 drops of Defend with 2 oz of distilled water in a small spray bottle. Shake well before each use and spritz in bathrooms, kitchens, or any room needing a refresh.

4. Make A Warm Compress

For sinus pressure relief, add 2-3 drops of Defend to a cotton ball, place it on your warm compress, and wrap it together with a thin towel. Apply to your sinus area to help alleviate pain and open airways naturally.

5. Steam Treatment

Ease congestion with a simple steam treatment. Add 3-4 drops of Defend to a bowl of hot, steamy water, then lean over the bowl (not too close!) and take several slow, deep breaths with a towel draped over your head. You'll be breathing easier in no time!
