Lavender (French) Essential Oil, organic

Alywillow essential oils are Therapeutic Grade, Steam Distilled and/or Pressed Essential Oils. They are made using the healthiest plants, grown with no chemicals, harvested at the right time, with no chemicals, and processed in clean environments through steam distillation and sometimes our citruses are cold-pressed.

This listing is for a 15mL bottle of 100% pure Lavender Essential Oil.

Essential oils are pure, concentrated plant chemicals that come from flowers, fruits, leaves, resins, twigs, seeds, or roots. These essential oils are the same oils we use in our skin care products! They are pure and come from all around the world. 

Properties and Benefits.

Among its many properties, it is known to be analgesic, antidepressant, antirheumatic, antiseptic, antispasmodic, antiviral, bactericide, cicatrisant, decongestant, deodorant, diuretic, fungicide, sedative. Because of these components, lavender has been known to relieve muscular pain and cramps, reduce swelling, encourage cell renewal, reduce fluid retention, and lessen depression. 

• Sunburn/Burns: This is the first essential oil one should reach for in the case of minor burns and sunburn, but our GypsySun Medicinal Spray is even better as it contains large amounts of Lavender, plus other complimentary plants that are more effective when used in combination to calm the pain and repair the damage of sunburn. Plus, you just spray it on, so you don't have to touch it!
  
• Headaches: Lavender is useful with headaches, so it's part of the ingredients in our Headache Medicinal Inhaler. This complex blend is even more effective at reducing headaches for a larger population.
• Calming: Lavender has shown some evidence of reducing blood pressure, as do many of our organic herbal teas. Useful in a diffuser in the delivery room to calm and relax everyone in the room, but Sage can help promote contractions, so consider it too. Soothes the spirit, relieves anger, valuable in manic-depressive cases. Lavender is relaxing for most, but has been known to be an energizer for some.  Lavender has a sedative action on the heart, assists in bringing down high blood pressure, relieves insomnia and muscular spasms and rheumatic pains.
  

It may also be useful with nausea, vomiting and colic. Promotes growth of new skin cells and reduces scarring. This is why it is included in all our Lavender Fields cleansers and moisturizers.

Lavender is one of the safest essential oils to use with children and the elderly. Blends well with bergamot, chamomile, citronella, lemon, and pine. Flash point: 156 F. OK to ship via air/ocean.

Alywillow Essential Oil Safety Tenets:

• NEVER consume or ingest essential oils. Some companies have promoted this practice, but the majority of seizures and fatalities due to essential oil use could have been avoided if the essential oils had been applied externally instead of internally ingested. Even if you have already consumed essential oils, please discontinue this practice as it can lead to long-term damage to your digestive system. Besides, essential oils absorb into your skin, body, and blood so quickly. There really is no need to ingest them.
• Most essential oils should be avoided in the 1st trimester of pregnancy. Many should be avoided during your entire pregnancy. 
• Do not put undiluted essential oils in your bath. Dilute them first, using the Safe Dermal Dilution rate listed above.
• If diffusing in your car, make sure the oil is a stimulant and not a sedative. 
• If applying to your skin, please use the proper dilution- every plant is different! See below for more details.
  
• Always dilute essential oils, especially when used on children. Use essential oils sparingly on children and use only as needed, not as a preventative measure (unless for a limited time).
• Some essential oils require you to avoid direct sunlight for 10-12 hours after use. All citrus essential oils and some others, such as patchouli, are photo toxic, even when diluted. Lavender Essential Oil is not photo toxic.
  
• This is just a brief safety summary. Your safety is very important to us, so if you have questions, please call us!  If you have medical concerns, speak to your doctor. 

Calculating the Proper Dilution: 

Lavender's safe dermal dilution is 0.1%.  This means for every 100 drops of carrier oil (1 tsp), you should use only 1 drop of Lavender Essential oil. You can definitely use higher concentrations if you wish, but if you use a stronger dilution than this and you use it every day, you may build a sensitivity or allergy to Lavender Essential oil. We have seen it happen! How much carrier oil are you using? Carrier oils could be coconut oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, hemp oil, or any other oil. Water is not a safe carrier as it will not blend. 

• Use 1 drop of Lavender Essential Oil to 1 tsp (100drops) of carrier oil.
• Use 6 drops of Lavender Essential Oils to 1 oz. of carrier oil
• If using Lavender Essential Oil on a child, use less. We recommend 1-2 drops per 1 ounce of carrier oil.
