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.

The noted historical uses and benefits of lavender oil are quite extensive and include:

  • perfumes
  • skin care
  • elevating mood
  • subsiding colic
  • improving respiratory health
  • relieving menstrual pain
  • promoting healing

The Purely Clear skin care line includes the essential oil of lavender because of its versatile, balancing properties.
