Probably the best value of our true Lavender oils. It's very full and round. Not as sharply green or camphorous as many Lavenders; you know this one came from flowers, not leaves. The scent seems to rise out of the bottle and greet me. Full and rich, rounded and supportive.
Our Lavender pure essential oil is probably purchased most for use with burns. Here are some simplt tips for using Lavender oil on a burn. Try dabbing a small amount of our pure Lavender essential oil gently to the burn, using a cotton ball or your fingers. Most experts agree that Lavender essential oil does not need to be diluted with carrier oil. Try a cool bath or immersing the burn in cool water. Add a few drops of lavender to the water and soak the area for 15 minutes. You might try a drop of lavender essential oil in a cool compress and put over the burn. Then apply fresh compresses every 15 minutes. This method has worked also, put a few drops of lavender essential oil in a spray bottle full of cool water. Spray the burn with your squirt bottle, especially if the burn is too tender to touch or apply a cool compress.
If you are looking for a Lavender for relaxing in the tub, or diffusing for soothing, relaxation, or wooing sleep , this is the one for you. I've been mixing it with our Rose Geranium and quite honestly can't get enough of the blend. Added to soap or lotions the blend produces a wonderfully soothing scent.
Like all true Lavender oils, our French and Bulgarian Lavenders are antibacterial, anti-fungal, and, possibly, anti-viral. Lavender functions as an adaptogen, aiding in restoring the body to balance.

Tips On Using Essential Oils:
Use essential oils in the bath by adding three to eight drops to the tub, depending on the oil. Add it just before you get in and soak for at least 10 minutes.
Use oils as an inhalant to treat congestion (try eucalyptus ) or stress (try peppermint or sandalwood ). Put four drops in a bowl of hot, almost boiling water. Drape a towel over your head to make a tent and breathe in the steam for a few minutes.
Make a foot bath with five to seven drops of oil in a quart of warm water; soak for about 10 minutes. Try lemon, mint, tea tree or juniper oil.
Put 20 drops per 5 oz. of water in a spray bottle to make a room spray, or add a drop or two to a basket of dried flowers.
Put a drop of oil on a hot lightbulb - but don't try this with halogen lights.
Create a blend for massage by adding 10 drops of oil per 1 oz. of diluting oil, also called a carrier oil.
Make up a massage oil using apricot or 100 percent extra-virgin, cold-pressed olive oil for normal skin types. Try aloe vera or coconut oils for dry skin.
Use grapeseed oil in blends for skin that tends to be oily.
For good smelling towels, sheets, clothes, etc. place a few drops of your favorite essential oil onto a small piece of terry cloth and toss into the clothes dryer while drying. Add 5 drops essential oil to 1/4 cup fabric softener or water and place in the center cup of the washer.
Potpourri which has lost its scent can be revived by adding a few drops of essential oil.
The bathroom is easily scented by placing oil-scented cotton balls in inconspicuous places, or sprinkle oils directly onto silk or dried flower arrangements or wreaths.
Apply true lavender oil or tea tree oil directly to cuts, scrapes or scratches. 1 or 2 drops will promote healing.
Selling your home? Fragrance sells! Fill the kitchen area with the aroma of spices such as clove, cinnamon and vanilla. Simmer a few drops of the essential oil of cinnamon, nutmeg and other spices. geranium oil sprinkled throughout the home creates a warm, cheerful and inviting mood. Add cinnamon oil to furniture polish and wipe down the wood.
Overindulge last night? Essential oils of juniper, cedarwood, grapefruit, lavender, carrot, fennel, rosemary and lemon help soften the effects of a hangover. Make your own blend of these oils and use a total of 6-8 drops in a bath.
Using Essential Oils Safely:
Do not apply undiluted essential oils directly to your skin, because they are so very concentrated.
Essential oils are absorbed through the skin, so using too much can result in an overdose. Make sure you store essential oils out of the reach of children. Do not get essential oils in your eyes, nose, or ears. Wash your hands thoroughly after using essential oils. If working with pure essential oils, you may want to get disposable latex gloves. Do not take essential oils internally. Even small amounts can be toxic. Do a patch test if you have allergies or think you might be sensitive to an essential oil. Overuse of essential oils can trigger a headache or dizziness. Don't exceed recommended amounts. If you have a medical condition, consult a qualified practitioner before using essential oils.
