That’s cool that she’s in, as I said think I’m going to get back into it too. A lot of those oils sell themselves, or a little sample will get things done for you. Yes a bottle of the stretcher is good. Had to use that stuff a lot of the time to give Pat oils because of her skin and strong oils as I said I would still just put on bottom of foot. Slower effect, but still works. > On Feb 18, 2015, at 12:27 AM, Josh <lawdog911@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > The mint oil smells like peppermint. Amanda is thinking about trying to > become a consultant.
