Overview
This is one of our all-time favorite lavenders. It’s grown in the biodiversity hotspot of the Cape of South Africa, where the soil and plants are unique to that region. This lavender is a bit different in that while it is distinctly floral and lavender, the camphor components definitely come through for a full-bodied and rich scent. The higher camphor content makes it an excellent choice for therapeutic applications of lavender, i.e., as an anti-inflammatory or anti-spasmodic in topical massage oil blends or creams. Lavender oil has dozens of uses, ranging from treating anxiety, inflammation, insomnia, to soothing irritated skin. This is one oil that every household should have in their first aid kits!
Safety Information:
Dilute to appropriate concentration (2.5-5%) in a suitable carrier oil. Avoid contact with mucous membranes and eyes. Do not apply before direct sunlight exposure. Patch test skin before application to test skin sensitivity. If any irritation or discomfort occurs, discontinue use. If pregnant or nursing, consult your doctor before use.
