How does it work?

Lavender is part of the mint family Lamiaceae. Its herbal, soft, sweetly floral and spicy undertones make it one of the most versatile essential oils. It helps with many things such as anxiety, depression, nervousness and exhaustion. Lavender works on several nervous systems such as the autonomic, sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems as well as the adrenal glands. It is also used in many formulas for eczema and psoriasis.  After microdermabrasions or chemical peels, lavender uses its anti-inflammatory benefits to help calm the skin and reduce swelling. Lavender can be used for all skin types.
