Portable USB Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser

How it Works:

The Portable Diffuser uses high frequency ultrasonic technology that vibrates water in the unit into an ultra fine mist. When essential oils are added, they are immediately dispersed into the air, providing immediate healthful benefits while helping to ionize the air. It can be use in a bedroom, living room, office area, or anywhere you want to create a relaxing, healthful environment.

Directions for Use:

1. Remove cover, plug the USB cable (included) to the unit, then connect to a USB port (port not included).
   
2. Using a cup, fill with lukewarm tap water up to the max fill line. Do not fill above max fill line. Add 5 to 10 drops of your essential oil and reassemble cover.
   
3. To activate mist and rotating lights:
   - Touch the power icon once to begin misting with lights on
   - Touch the power icon twice to turn the light off and continue misting
   - Touch the power icon 3 times to turn the diffuser off

• DO NOT FILL ABOVE MAX LINE
• DO NOT ALLOW WATER TO ENTER THE AIR VENT
• DO NOT FILL BASE UNDER RUNNING WATER

Cleaning Maintenance

1. Disconnect from power before cleaning
2. Remove lid and "energy ring" (covering the sensor at bottom of inside)
3. Rinse inside with warm water
4. Wipe with soft damp cloth to clean
5. Wipe with soft cloth and rubbing alcohol when needed to break up excessive oil residue (Do not use detergents, solvents, or abrasive agents to clean the diffuser.)
6. Using a cotton swab with warm water, gently clean the mist disc and sensor located at the inside bottom of the base.
7. Replace "energy ring" and lid after cleaning
8. NOTE: Oil mist may damage wooden and painted surface. Wipe up any residue quickly and often.

How do essential oils work?

Essential oils have been used for thousands of years for their therapeutic properties. They work in two main ways:

1. Through inhalation – Aromatic molecules travel through the nose, triggering reactions in the brain.
2. Through the skin – Their tiny molecules absorb into the body and can be detected in perspiration, urine, and breath.

Different oils have different effects—some are calming, others anti-inflammatory, and some even boost immunity.

What is the difference between fragrance oils, essential oils, and all-natural fragrances?

• Essential Oils – Pure plant extracts obtained via steam distillation or cold pressing.
• All-Natural Fragrances – A mix of essential oils and natural ingredients. These are the only types we use.
• Fragrance Oils (Perfumes) – Can include essential oils, natural fragrances, and artificial aroma chemicals. Many brands use artificial fragrances to cut costs, but their full ingredient lists are often hidden.

Why do essential oil prices vary so much?

The price of essential oils depends on factors like plant yield, transportation costs, and growing conditions. Some plants require significantly more raw material to produce oil—for example, 1 lb. of Lavender Oil requires 1,000 lbs. of lavender, whereas 1 lb. of Rose Oil requires 600 TONS of roses!

Are your essential oils “therapeutic grade”?

"Therapeutic grade" is simply a marketing term—there is no third-party certification for essential oils. However, essential oils can be Certified Organic if they meet independent verification standards.

We source essential oils from Lebermuth (many of our Certified Organic!), a trusted supplier with over a century of experience.

How many drops of essential oil should I use in my diffuser?

A good rule of thumb is 3-5 drops per 100ml of water, but always check your diffuser’s capacity.

Are essential oils safe to ingest?

No. Unless under the guidance of a licensed practitioner, essential oils should not be taken internally, as some compounds can be toxic when ingested.

Can I apply essential oils directly to my skin?

No, essential oils should always be diluted in a carrier oil before applying to the skin. They are highly concentrated and can cause irritation if used undiluted.

What does “dermal use limit” mean?

This is the maximum recommended percentage of an essential oil that can be applied to the skin. Our guidelines are based on Essential Oil Safety by Robert Tisserand & Rodney Young, the industry standard for safe use.

If you experience irritation, discontinue use immediately. If using prescription topical medications, apply essential oils to a separate area of skin.
