Lavender 40/42. 100% Pure Natural Essential Oil.
A wonderful classic blend of aromatic lavenders. This magnificent bouquet contains Italian, Bulgarian and French lavenders. Aroma is floral, herbaceous, fresh, light with balsamic woody undertones. The most floral scent of all lavenders, but the therapeutic levels are the lowest. Uses include analgesic, anticonvulsant, antidepressant, antimicrobial, antirheumatic, antiseptic, antitoxic, decongestant, deodorant, diuretic, fungicide, and sedative. Has a sedative action on the heart, brings down high blood pressure, relieves insomnia, muscular spasms and rheumatic pains. Excellent for relief of pain from sunburn and minor burns and keeps insects away. One of the safest for use with children and the elderly. Lavender 40/42 is often the choice for applications in soaps, candles, perfumes and cosmetics. The reason is that the 40/42 refers to the standardization of both linalool and linalyl acetate resulting in a very consistent floral scent thus smells the way most feel lavender should smell. Blends well with most oils, especially citrus, florals, clove, cedarwood, clary sage, pine, geranium, vetiver and patchouli. Generally non-toxic. May be irritating to skin and eye
