Uses:
Lavender is perhaps the most well-known of the essential oils and for good reason. Lavender essential oil is renowned for its many beneficial properties, including promoting calm, relaxation, and being a nervous tension reliever. It can also be added to a carrier oil to help reduce the appearance of scars and wrinkles and help soothe alterations in skin integrity, such as during sun exposure or a minor cooking burn. It can be used in cleaning or as an antiseptic for cuts. Lavender is a wonderful "all rounder" oil.
Diffuse Lavender about 30-60 minutes before bedtime to promote relaxation before sleep.
