Natural Cleaning: Easy Recipes with Bea Oleia Pure Essential Oils 🧼🫧

Hey there! 👋

Cleaning has never been my idea of fun. Some people get the most satisfaction from it—yeah well—not me. 😂 Still, it’s a must. I don’t exactly want to live in a pigsty. Lately, more and more of us have been looking for safer, natural ways to keep our homes fresh without all the chemicals. Those harsh ingredients in commercial cleaners? They can irritate the skin, trigger headaches, and honestly, some of them smell more like a sterile room than a home. 🏥 I once used bleach to clean my bathroom—because, let’s be real, it works fast—but I ended up inhaling too much and felt like my lungs were closing in on me. Never again. 😤  That moment made me rethink what I was breathing in while trying to make things “clean.”

In comes DIYs with ingredients that we already have! Pantry staples like suka, baking soda, and alcohol—and a few drops of Bea Oleia Pure Essential Oils, it’s easy to whip up natural cleaning solutions that are both effective and gentle on the senses. Whether you’re trying to cut down on toxins, save money, or just make your space smell really (really) nice, here are three go-to DIY cleaning recipes to get started.  👩🏻🏫

🧼 Everyday All-Purpose Cleaner

Best for: countertops, tables, sinks, even floor tiles
Bea: Tea Tree, Eucalyptus

You’ll need:

·        1 cup white vinegar (suka)

·        1 cup water

·        10 drops Bea Oleia Pure Tea Tree Oil (antibacterial and antifungal, perfect for disinfecting surfaces)

·        10 drops Bea Oleia Pure Eucalyptus Oil (deodorizes and freshens with a crisp, cooling scent)

·        An empty spray bottle

Mix everything in the bottle, shake well, and spray away. Don’t worry—the vinegar smell fades quickly, leaving behind all the freshness. I like this for daily wipe-downs in the kitchen, CR, and dining area. ✨

💜 Fabric & Room Freshener Spray

Best for: bedsheets, sofa, curtains, even the air after someone did number 2 , iykwim😂
Bea: Lavender, Tangerine

You’ll need:

·        1 cup water

·        ¼ cup rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol works fine)

·        10 drops Bea Oleia Pure Lavender Oil (calming and antibacterial—perfect for bedtime linens and soft surfaces)

·        10 drops Bea Oleia Pure Tangerine Oil (uplifting and citrusy, helps eliminate odors naturally)

·        Optional: a teaspoon of vinegar to help neutralize strong smells

Combine in a spray bottle, shake, and spritz over any soft surface. The combo of lavender and tangerine is chef’s kiss—soothing, but with a bit of zest. Great for bedrooms, living rooms, and even car upholstery. You can use the essential oils by themselves too! 🪻🍊

🚽 Natural Bathroom Cleaner Paste

Best for: toilets, sinks, tiles, and stained grout
Bea: Peppermint, Tea Tree

You’ll need:

·        ½ cup baking soda

·        2 tablespoons suka

·        10 drops Bea Oleia Pure Peppermint Oil (refreshing and cooling with antimicrobial properties—great for musty spaces)

·        5 drops Bea Oleia Pure Tea Tree Oil (to fight bacteria and mildew buildup)

·        A small bowl or container

Slowly add the suka to the baking soda—get satisfied with that fizz then stir in the oils. Scrub onto the surface using an old toothbrush or sponge. Let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing off. Leaves everything sparkling and smelling minty-fresh, without the eye-watering chemical scent.

✨ Bonus Tip: Want to keep ants, spiders and roaches away from the kitchen or CR? Add a few drops of Bea Oleia Pure Peppermint Oil to cotton balls and leave them in corners. Insects hate it. Your bug hating family will love it. 😉

The best part about making your own cleaners? You stay in control. No mystery ingredients. No overpowering fumes. Just potent oils and pantry staples, working together to keep our homes safe and smelling lovely. 😌

⚠️ Just a reminder though! Even though we’re going natural here with pantry staples and EOs, remember that “natural” doesn’t always mean “no reactions.” Some oils can be strong, especially around little kids, pets, or if you have sensitive skin or allergies. So, use these recipes with care—spray away from your furry friends and kiddos, keep the area well-ventilated, and don’t let curious noses or hands get too close right after spraying. When in doubt, check with your doctor or vet. Cleaning should be safe and smell good, after all! 😉
