How to use Lavender

  • For sleep: using Lavender aromatically or topically can help facilitate a restful sleep. You can use a few drops in a diffuser, apply a drop in your palms and breathe in, or apply a drop to the bottoms of your feet.
  • For skin: apply to minor skin irritations such a scratches, burns, dry skin, and scrapes to help heal. Dilute with Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO) to cover larger areas (helpful with a sunburn!). 
  • For anxiety and tension: rubbing on palms and the back of the neck can help you relax and reduce stress levels.
  • For household odors: create your own DIY natural odor neutralizer by combining Lavender and water in a glass spray bottle, and spray on soft smelly surfaces. This is also great for pillows and mattresses for restful sleep.
  • A relaxing bath: add a few drops to your nighttime bath for a soothing experience that is also great for your skin.
