Run for the hills! My SIL is a 'consultant' or whatever they like to be called. I tried to humor her at first and even bought a 'starter kit' or something and gave to the wife. Then she started pushing her anti-vax crap on Facebook and pushing them on the whole family. I called her out and it got ugly. She got all her MLM friends to attack me. I'm not sure how my brother deals with it. They are now up to 3 kids and she rubs them all in oils every day and I'm pretty sure they ingest small amounts. Not surprisingly, they are always sick. She quit her job to homeschool the kids. They have no chance.

Well lets unpack this.
First of all get her off the pyramid scheme ones.
Aura Cacia made in Iowa! are the same crap as the rest at a fraction of the price and you can buy them in Natural Grocers and food coops and Hy Vee all throughout the state of Iowa.

Secondly I would say they can be good for lung health in the winter if you use a diffuser.

Thirdly I would say your girlfriend is chasing a buzz that she wont find.

Fourthly I would recommend flax seed oil and or complete omega oil instead.

And if she still needs a buzz there is cbd oil. In fact you can buy hemp flower from Oregon that is top notch and make it yourself in a slow cooker with cocunut oil. Super easy.
Any other recipes you'd care to share?

It burns like hell about 45 minutes and your farts still stink.
Thought maybe it would be like those old Orbit gum commercials on my stink star.

That sounds like one of my weird tax clients

They smell good and that's pretty much it. We buy ours local to avoid the MLM crap.

Eucalyptus oil worked great for clearing out my sinuses last winter when I had a cold but I still felt like garbage, albeit with a less runny nose.
