How to Use Aromatherapy Inhalers FAQ – Earth Solutions Essential Oil Inhalers

Earth Solutions Aromatherapy Inhalers are science-based essential oil inhalers designed to help you relax, focus, or find balance through scent and affirmation. Review these FAQ's to better understand how to use essential oil inhalers.

  1. Uncap and hold the inhaler just below your nose (you do not need to insert it).

  2. Take 1–2 slow breaths while silently (or softly) repeating the affirmation on the label — or one that feels personally meaningful.

  3. Recap promptly to preserve freshness.

Tip: Many users simply wave it under the nose for a strong, hygienic whiff.

Earth Solutions aromatherapy inhalers are science-based, synergistic essential-oil blends designed to promote specific emotional and physical effects. Each formula is paired with a positive affirmation that helps turn intention into a repeatable wellness habit.

Unlike many “just for scent” inhalers, our blends are made with pure essential oils balanced for aromatic potency and therapeutic impact, based on decades of practice in aromatherapy and behavioral science.

No. While many inhalers are made by reputable companies, some use synthetic or petrochemical-based fragrances because they are cheaper, stronger, and easier to mass-produce. These chemical additives do not offer the same natural benefits as pure essential oils and can irritate sensitive users. Companies that use synthetic microfiber oil wicks should also be avoided.
It’s important to buy from a trustworthy brand that uses only natural essential oils — ingredients that are genuinely aromatic and extractable by nature. Scents such as coffee, vanilla, or gardenia are examples that are usually artificially reproduced, since their true natural essences are rare and difficult to extract.

Use it as often as desired. Typical use is 2–3 sessions per day, with 1–10 slow breaths per session.
You may increase or decrease usage based on your personal response or mood goals.

Each inhaler can last hundreds of uses, depending on frequency and storage conditions.
Some users report maintaining noticeable aroma for up to five years with proper care.

A small amount of jojoba oil is added to stabilize the essential oils.
Jojoba resists oxidation and rancidity, helping preserve freshness, aroma, and effectiveness over time.

Each inhaler contains a pure essential-oil blend absorbed into a natural cotton wick housed in a BPA-free, hygienic tube. Note (Other brands use synthetic fiber pads which contain microplastics. These should be avoided).
There are no synthetic fragrances, preservatives, or fillers — only therapeutic-grade plant oils and a touch of jojoba for stability.

You may, but it’s not necessary.
For hygiene and comfort, hold it just below the nostrils or wave it under the nose.
You’ll still enjoy a robust, clean aroma without direct contact.

Yes. Each blend is paired with a positive affirmation designed to reinforce the desired emotional state (calm, focus, confidence, etc.).
Repeating the affirmation while inhaling helps the brain associate scent with intention, strengthening neural pathways for stress reduction and behavioral change.
This pairing is part of what makes Earth Solutions unique among aromatherapy brands.

Potentially yes. There is a hole on the top which some might wish to use to inject more oils. But a depleted inhaler pad is not sufficienlty absorbant and it can create a mess. If an inhaler has reached its prime, adding more oil to old oil reduces the quality and freshness.

Our inhalers are safe for adults and teens when used as directed.
For children under 10 or individuals with respiratory sensitivities, test by briefly wafting under the nose.
Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, or broken skin. Keep capped when not in use.

Keep the inhaler capped, upright, and away from heat or direct sunlight.
A cool, dry place helps preserve scent quality and longevity.
