Essential oils are all the rave in the beauty and wellness market these days. The oils, which are naturally derived from plants and other natural sources, are have many uses. One oil stands out from all the rest and is likely the most popular and widely used oil available and that is Lavender Essential Oil.
The main reason lavender is so popular is due to its pleasant odour but it has many other uses including:
1) Aiding with sleep. Many people sniff the oil before bed or sprinkle some on their pillow.
2) Freshening up any space. Lavender is great as an air freshener either or alone or mixed with equal parts water and vinegar and sprayed from a spray bottle.
3) Moisturizing the skin. It’s not advised that you put lavender directly on the skin but use it in an oil or moisturizer of your choice to aid the skin in many ways including wrinkle reduction and brightening dull skin.
Lavender oil is widely available anywhere that sells beauty products including natural health stores. The oil is very concentrated so even a small bottle of it lasts a long time.
