Benefits of Lavender Oil

Lavender is one of the world's most well known herbs that not only helps us to calm us down in stressful situations, but has a wide variety of different benefits dependent on how it's used.




Throughout  the ages Lavender has been used to soothe and calm, which is why it's so popular in baby products.  Although most people today have showers instead of baths, there is nothing more relaxing than indulging in some time out with a soak in a lavender scented bath.

When used as soaks, Lavender Oil not only soothes and relaxes but it can also help alleviate the symptoms of headaches, migraines and stress - making it ideal for those who have difficulty in sleeping in getting a good nights rest.

Lavender is a favourite for use in skincare because of its abilities to gently heal and care for all skin types, with its anti-septic, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.

These properties make Lavender Oil perfect for those with acne, allergies, burns and various forms of dermatitis!  Used in soaps and moisturisers, Lavender improves the overall skin condition and helps to heal any damage your skin picks up from everyday life.

We have a large range of products with Lavender Oil because of all these lovely benefits, from our soaps (Lavender Soap, Soothing Baby Soap and Kitchen Soap), and our moisturisers (Lavender Body Butter, Moisturising Baby Cream, Mum & Baby Lotion), to soak (Lavender Bath Bombs, Lavender Mini Bath Bombs, Lavender Bath Salts).

 

Lavender Oil is one of the few essential oils safe enough to be used neat on skin, although it's best to leave this to the professionals as with all essential oils they are extremely potent and may be harmful if used incorrectly.
