Calm, Soothe, and Balance Your Skin With Lavender Oil

Lavender oil is generally recognized as the most versatile of all essential oils.  It is best known for its antiseptic, bactericidal, analgesic, and antidepressant properties.  However, one of the most valuable benefits may be its abilities to calm, soothe and balance.

Lavender has been used for thousands of years by cultures around the world.  It is native to the Mediterranean area but has flourished in other areas since the Europeans were introduced to it by the Romans.

  • subsiding colic
  • improving respiratory health
  • relieving menstrual pain
