Did you know it takes approximately 2 mature lavender plants, with about 1,000 flowerheads, to produce 1 fl oz (30ml) of essential oil? Steam distillation is used to extract essential oil from the lavender flowers. It's a labor-intensive process requiring a great deal of plant material to produce a small amount of pure essential oil. This large plant material requirement is the reason why pure essential oils are more expensive than synthetic fragrance oils.
Centuries of documented experience along with modern science have established lavender essential oil’s many naturally occurring properties.
Antiseptic
Topical Anesthetic
Sedative
Insect Repellant
Natural Oil Solvent
Each of these naturally occurring properties, alone or in combination, has contributed to lavender's extraordinarily broad and enduring range of uses in everyday life.
