Organic French Lavender Essential Oil
Organic Lavandin aka French lavender, has balancing, purifying and clarifying qualities that are less calming and sedative when compared to true English lavender.
Qualities
Lavandin is the quintessential lavender image that one conjures when thinking of stunning French lavender fields. It has all the same antiseptic and antimicrobial qualities of English lavender, but it has stronger wood and camphor notes, is more penetrating and has a sharper scent. It is good for circulatory, respiratory and muscular conditions.
Uses
First aid: Skin cleaning, cuts & wounds. Diffuser: For breathing difficulties, respiratory issues, colds, flu etc. Ideal for daily diffusing as it has sharper notes that can be more stimulating than English lavender. Aches, pains & strains: Place a drop on your temple or neck to relieve headaches. Massage into muscles to relieve aches or soreness (blend 3% essential oil into a carrier oil of your choice for the perfect blend)
Aroma Profile
Fresh, floral, herbacious, penetrating, camphourous, woodsy.
Blends with
Citrus oils such as bergamot, flowering herbs such as rosemary or clary sage, and pine/woody oils.
Size: 5ml
Safety
Non-toxic, non-irritating and non-sensitizing. Safely used by all ages and one of the few oils that can be used neat (undiluted) on your skin. Although lavender is generally safe to use during pregnancy, it is recommended to discuss safe use with your doctor in your first trimester. Always do a skin test to see if you have an allergy. |
