Just as the spikes of the Lavandula officinalis gratefullyunravel themselves to provide lavender’s natural essence, you will feel the tension trapped in your body melting away with your first inhalation of this staple essential oil. Lavender is one of our most popular essential oils because it works. Our pure, organic lavender oil is steam distilled to draw out its natural, calming essence and heavenly scent. Drop a few beads in your bath to melt the day away, or dab some oil on your neck and wrists to ward off mosquitoes. Rub a generous amount of our lavender oil over sore muscles or sunburned skin, or apply to the chest to open the airways and enhance breath flow.
The use of lavender as a massage oil dates back to Ancient Egypt. Kings were buried with jars filled with lavender, while queens doused themselves in the perfume of the spiky plant. The Ancient Greeks anointed their feet and breasts with lavender oil, so the intoxicating scent would heal body, mind and heart. Lords and ladies of the Medieval English court cured the migraines of nobility with a drop of lavender in their tea, and the French have been fighting infections with lavender oil since the 16th century.
Doctors in Germany have incorporated lavender into anti-anxiety medications (1), but you do not need a prescription. A few drops of lavender oil in a steaming hot bath will whisk you away to Cloud Nine faster than you can say “Ahhhhh.”
“There's a few things I've learned in life: always throw salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for good luck, and fall in love whenever you can.”
– Practical Magic
“…over 1,200 components have been identified in Lavender essential oil. It is intuitively understandable that these layers upon layers of physiological activity of all the components in lavender generate an overall quality, which is distinctly that of Lavender… and Lavender’s unrivaled ability to heal burns.”

Review(s)
Skin rescue - soothing, healing relief
As for skin applications, I've used this on blemishes and it heals and smoothes things out overnight, great for scar tissue and inflammation. As well, lavender essential oil is part of my sunburn remedy: pure aloe vera gel mixed with 1 drop peppermint and 3-5 drops lavender essential oil. This has saved my sensitive skin from the sun many times, especially from one 2nd degree sunburn years ago that lasted 3 weeks, it was the only solution that remedied my skin and pain. So, I am forever indebted to the power of essential oils, and particularly lavender too, and am so happy I have found the purest line of Living Libations to help with my natural remedies . Lavender essential oil is the master soother, inside and out. :)
Perfection - purest ever
PUREST ever... Calming on the deepest level. You smell it, and can literally feel it being soaked deep in the brain, and it lingers in the nostrils after having smelt it. When I can't sleep or feel anxious, just dabbing a few drops under my nose and I calm within 5 minutes - this is my alternative effective plant medicine :). And it is so perfect during bathtime too. Is wonderful in a blend with other essential oils. I've tried other brands of Lavender essential oil but this is the most authentic just by the way it smells, so deep. I bow to Living Libations once again. This is a - very essential - essential oil in my toolkit :)
Lavender In the Jungle!
I recently spent 15 days in the Peruvian Jungle and I used your Lavender Oil as my mosquito repellent. There were three of us, the other two got eaten alive, and I... virtually bite free! I had about 5 bites total, in the steamy Rain Forest over the 15 days. Yes, I offered my friends to share my Lavender Oil, but they didn't 'get it' until I was leaving and my one friend who was staying asked me to leave her with my oil :) As always, you have the best products ever! Peace, Cathy
Amazing Lavender
Also let me tell you how amazing your lavender oil is! To be honest I never got the hype about the smell of lavender until iv had this. its so different its so creamy in a way. I actually have been dabbing it to some areas where i would break out on my face and i haven't had a break out in weeks! I apply a bit on my usual trouble spots every night and iv even noticed how much easier it is to sleep. What makes this lavender so unique smelling from the others? its incredible, my mother in law just tossed her lavender from Primavera essential oil line over after experiencing this.
Most Unique Lavender ever..
I will never forget the day I bought this magical bottle and took a sniff... the first think that came to my mind was freshly squeezed sugarcane sweetness soothing. Love Love Love this ...
sweet deep strength
Journeying through my chakras, aligning energetic frequencies with a steady deep calming gaze into the vast sunset of my soul purpose. My toddler loves this essence, in baths, on the soles of her feet before sleep, anywhere and anytime, a constant companion for blissfully engaging in the healing power of each moment.
