Lavender Essential Oil

One of the most versatile Essential Oils is Lavender (Lavendula Angustifolia). Lavender is antiseptic, antifungal, vasodilating, relaxing, antidepressant, and emotionally balancing. It's properties make it valuable in treating minor skin irritants, cuts, bruises, insect bites, irritability, and insomnia. Lavender has been documented to improve concentration and mental clarity. Lavender is one of the few EOs that can be applied directly to the skin (without a carrier oil). It is a light oil that blends well with florals, citrus, and/or wood oils.

Lavender can be used directly on the skin, inhaled, or in a diffuser.
