    INCI: Lavandula Angustifolia Oil

    A popular, calming essential oil with a rich, floral, characteristic fragrance and several uses in cosmetics and aromatherapy.

    PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

    Lavender essential oil is a thin, colourless to pale yellow oil extracted via steam distillation of the fresh flowering tops of the lavender plant. Perhaps the most popular essential oil of all, this much-loved natural ingredient is favoured for its calming effects. It also benefits from having several skin and hair-boosting properties.

    Our organic lavender essential oil is sourced from lavender grown at mid to high altitudes. This oil is sometimes known as Lavender Fine or Lavender Fine Population.

    Lavender is associated with feelings of calmness and relaxation. This pure essential oil calms the mind and provides a therapeutic experience when used in massage, aromatherapy or topical skincare products. Use it in night creams to prepare for a peaceful night’s sleep, or diffuse this floral scent in your home to help you unwind in the evening.

    Cautions/Contraindications:

    Use with caution during pregnancy as overuse could be too stimulating.

    Cosmetic Functions:

    The Cosmetic Ingredient Database (CosIng) lists lavender essential oil’s functions as “fragrance” and “tonic”.
