You simply add a few drops of your favorite essential oil and turn on the device.

This type of waterless diffuser is sometimes called a nebulizer or an aromafier.  The aromafier type of diffuser has a piece of felt inside of a lid that easily comes off. You add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to this felt and then snap the lid back in place. A tiny fan inside will turn on and distribute the scent around your vehicle. It will run off of batteries, a USB plug or a real power plug so you can take this small device with you anywhere you travel.

You can purchase additional felt pads or create your own. The nebulizer style is ultrasonic and does not use water; you add up to ten drops of your favorite oil and turn it on. This type of diffuser runs off of a USB plug or a rechargeable battery. Depending upon what size you purchase you may find one that runs up to ten hours which makes it ideal for your commute to and from work as well as your time in the office. The second type of USB car oil diffuser is the standard water utilizing diffuser. These come in a variety of sizes and can be small enough to plug right into a lighter port or large enough to fit inside a cup holder and utilize the USB car port or a battery for operation. These work the exact same way the large ones in your home do except they are portable and smaller which makes them fabulous for road trips and travel.

Q: Why Essential Oils in the Car?

That iconic “new car smell”? It’s the result of hundreds of chemicals off-gassing! The average car contains dozens of chemicals (like flame retardants and lead) that off-gas into the air we breathe. These have been linked with everything from headaches to cancer and memory loss.

Keeping the car interior and air clean is key to creating a healthier car environment. According to AAA, we spend more than 290 hours a year in our vehicles on average. That’s a lot of time spent in a potentially toxic brew!

Fortunately there are other ways to minimize toxin exposure. Essential oils help keep the car interior clean, purify the air, and reduce bacteria and viruses on car surfaces.
