Lavender is a shrub native to the Mediterranean. It grows to be around 60 centimetres tall and features purple flowers, which is where the familiar lavender scent comes from. Lavender essential oil is extracted from the flowers before undergoing steam distillation. 16 kilograms of lavender flowers are required to produce a 15ml bottle of lavender essential oil.
The use of lavender can be dated back to the Romans and the ancient Egyptians, who would use it for cooking, bathing, and perfume. However, it is a versatile essential oil and its uses are diverse.
When used aromatically, Lavender has a calming effect which is perfect for unwinding after a long day or helping to promoting a restful night’s sleep. Topical application soothes and nourishes the skin, whilst internal application helps to ease feelings of tension. Furthermore, Lavender essential oil can be used in cooking, or to remove unwanted odours from your home.
