Lavender-Lavandula Officinalis- Of course I would choose this one first. Lavender has been around for thousands of years. This ancient Greco-Roman
medicine has been used for ailments from stomach aches to headaches to
stress and depression. It is excellent for beauty products because of
its soft flowery smell and its ability to treat all kinds of skin
conditions including, acne, athletes foot, eczema, inflammations and
irritations, psoriasis, sores, and even sunburn just to name a few. Just
inhaling its aroma can bring peace and tranquility and help prepare
you for a good nights rest.
I use lavender in many
of my bath products because of its incredible scent and its amazing
benefits. The oil can used and absorbed through the skin or even inhaled
directly from the bottle to heed its benefits. The herb can be made
into a tea, a poultice, or even stuffed in a pillow or hot pad.
When purchasing lavender essential oil be sure to buy 100% pure. I
purchase my oil and my lavender dried herbs at my local health food
store but you can also buy them online or even grow and prepare them
yourself.
This is a fantastic oil to put into your
diffuser as everyone is getting home from work or preparing for bed at
night. The soft scent will provide a relaxing ambiance to your home and
help your family release all that stress and tension from their day.
Lavender essential oils and other essential oils are not safe for women who are pregnant.

Lavender flowers and oil are some of my favorite things to use. I'm always amazed at how many uses it has...I recently started using it on minor burns and it always heals quickly and pain free. I never thought about the sunburn but I guess it makes a lot of sense since it works so well for other burns ��
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing! I put the dried flowers and a few drops of the oil in with the rice when I make my hot and cold packs too. The smell is very soothing. Essential oils have some wonderful benefits for a plethora of ailments. I'll get some more of my favorites posted soon.
