Why We Love

Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender oil has been used in therapy for more than 2,500 years. It was originally used by the Egyptians and Phoenicians as a perfume, and for mummification. Eventually, this sweetly scented oil became a prized commodity used to scent Roman baths. It was also used as flavoring and as insect repellant.

Skincare Benefits: A household favorite with a beautiful scent, lavender essential oil serves as an incredible help in the management of scrapes, rashes and burns. It also helps regulate excess oiliness and reduce the appearance of scars and blemishes.

Ayurvedic Therapy Benefits: Lavender essential oil’s profound calming and relaxing effects are especially helpful in stress management, and also promote restful sleep.
