OIL BENEFITS
Topical and aromatherapy: Lavender is a hugely popular essential oil and covers so many bases. Its uses include, but are not limited to, helping to relieve stress, anxiety, promote concentration, help with aches and pains, alleviate skin conditions such as psoriasis and eczema, promote wellbeing and general health.
This is basically the daddy of all essential oils and can be used in so many ways such as massage oils, diffusers and added to the bath for a good soak. It's also a fantastic oil to blend other oils with to create a wonderful aroma and add extra benefits from the other oils added.
We do not recommend using essential oils directly on the skin as they are very concentrated and can cause skin irritation. Adding a few drops to a carrier oil - such as grapeseed, olive or castor - would be a great way to safely use essential oils for the topical benefits.
