If you’ve heard the term “essential oil mom,” you know Ellen Pompeo fits the description. She’s hyperconscious about the ingredients going into her body and on her hair, skin and face, drinking alkaline water, shampooing with paraben-free formulas, using organic mascara and avoiding makeup (when she can). She’s also a big fan of meditating, exercising and waking up early.
But perhaps most notable about Pompeo’s wellness routine is her avoidance of perfumes, instead opting for an essential oil mom alternative — literally. Pompeo swears by the bestselling Young Living Essential Oils, saying she “won’t leave home without” the product.
“Everywhere I go, I have a little jar of coconut oil and [Young Living] essential oils,” she told Us Weekly. “My skin is always soft and I smell good.”
Pompeo even teamed up with Young Living to promote its plant-based baby care line, Seedlings, telling First for Women her kids use Young Living products too. “I wear them pretty much all the time. I’m putting them on constantly. They’re always in my purse and I’m always putting them on my kids.”
Some of her favorite scents include geranium, orange, sandalwood and vetiver, but she’s never without peppermint essential oil for fresh breath. “It’s really good if you don’t want to carry toothpaste around,” she told Us. “A couple little drops of peppermint oil on your tongue is a great breath freshener.”
This Peace and Calming II Essential Oil Blend contains sweet tangerine, earthy German chamomile, patchouli, bergamot and more, making it a comforting, relaxation-inducing scent. It can be worn as perfume or used in a diffuser — and if you’re like Pompeo, you’ll do both! The compact size is easy to transport, so you can bring a touch of calm with you wherever you go.
Each Young Living blend is made with 100% pure essential oils. The invigorating scents are carefully sourced and safe to inhale, apply topically and even consume in small quantities, whether on your tongue, mixed into a drink, or used in recipes.

One Amazon reviewer described the pick as “liquid gold” and said it’s the “only thing” that can calm them down.
“Honestly, I always assumed essential oils were a bit of a ‘hippie’ or ‘woo-woo’ thing — basically irrelevant, like a candle,” they wrote. “But I’m happy to admit I was completely wrong. I can’t recommend this enough. If I could give it more than five stars, I absolutely would. I rarely endorse products, but this is one I’d tell anyone about. 10/10! LOVE LOVE LOVE!”
Others love it for household cleaning, noting their homes are fresh, clean and refreshing thanks to the pure, concentrated essential oil blends. The uses are endless, so don’t be afraid to break this product out for anything and everything. We’ll be wearing the oils and adding them to this luxe-looking diffuser all spring and summer long!
