Characteristics & Properties 
Lavandula angustifolia is easy to grow, however the precious essential oil derived from this variety is difficult to extract.
 
Considered the queen of essential oil, lavender is readily used either pure, diluted or combined with other oils for a wide variety of benefits and emotional effects.
 
– Skincare – especially for sensitive, dry or acne prone skin.
 
– Headaches – rub a drop or two into the temples for tension or headache relief.
 
– Burns – the anti-inflammatory property soothes sunburn.
 
– Insect repellent/bites and stings – repels bugs and takes the sting away from bites. Also effective in calming the sting of a cooking oil splash (a quick fix for kitchen accidents).
 
– Congestion/Asthma – anti-spasmodic (muscular contraction) and anti-inflammatory effects make lavender good for respiratory support. Suitable for children too.
 
– Dandruff – balancing and moisturising dandruff treatment.
 
– Insomnia / nervous tension – relieves stress.

Mt Retour Director’s Comments
My favourite essential oil of all is lavender! The smell is very relaxing. The most beautiful lavender is certified organic French lavender which is superior to English lavender which contains camphor. Some farms grow English lavender simply because it is easy to grow and yields large quantities of flowers (meaning it can distil more essential oil).
 
Lavender has a very calming and soothing affect on the body and can be used as a first-aid measure to treat insect bites by applying a few drops directly to the skin. To help you sleep better, add a few drops to a burner at night or mix a few drops with sweet almond oil to create a relaxing massage oil.
