Use one of these face mask essential oil spray recipes to

- open up your airways to make it easier to breathe while wearing a face mask
- help cover up that bad breathe.
Supplies for your Face Mask Spray
1 oz Spray Bottles
The first thing you’ll need to do is pick up a few sprayers for your face mask spray. The recipes in this article call for a 1 oz spray bottle. I like to grab a pack of sprayers from our good friend Amazon so that I have several for around the house and in my purse.
I adore these pretty little frosted glass spray bottles that come in either silver or gold.*
Or you can pick up a pack of these basic glass spray bottles that come complete with labels, funnels, pipets and a wire brush for cleaning.
Mini Funnels
Mini Funnels like these make getting your witch hazel, water, or carrier oil into your container much easier.
These funnels are a must have for anyone doing any kind of DIY projects with essential oils and you’ll be able to use them over and over.
Witch Hazel
You’ll need some Witch Hazel to use as the liquid in your spray bottle. This is how the essential oils will be sprayed out onto your face mask. Choose an unscented, natural Witch Hazel like THIS ONE that is alcohol-free.
This Witch Hazel is perfect for anyone with sensitive skin.

How to Use Your Face Mask Essential Oil Spray
Once you have your face mask spray ready to go, it’s very simple to use it.
Give the inside of your spray one or two spritzes, and that’s it! If you have sensitive skin, you may want to spray the outside of your mask instead of the inside so that the essential oils don’t make contact with your skin.
Final thoughts on using a Mask Spray
While using a mask isn’t our first choice, we can make it easier to bear by using a pleasing essential oil spray.
Choose a spray for your needs, or even make one of each and keep them in a cosmetics bag in your purse. You can pull one out and use it as needed.
Just be sure to wash your hands or spray with OnGuard Hand Sanitizer so that you aren’t getting germs on your mask.
