Benefits of Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender Essential Oil

Balancing, Calming and Relaxing

Lavender essential oil is one of the most popular and versatile oils used in many products such as soaps.....and it deserves its reputation.

It has such a wide range of healing properties, it is suitable for use with babies, children and pets and is one of the few essential oils which is safe to use undiluted on skin.

It is very good for calming and balancing strong emotions such as panic, frustration, anger and nervous anxiety.

One of the reasons that I find myself reaching for Lavender time and time again is that it has the amazing ability to increase the effects of other oils with which it is blended.
