Lavender Essential Oil

Lavender is not just a beautiful plant it holds many properties to help you relax and heal. The LYA Lavender essential oil is 100% pure, by using this will help you keep calm, soothe your sensitive skin and unwind before sleep. The lavender essential oil can be used for balancing and normalising body functions and emotions. Traditionally lavender has been used to aid a good night’s sleep, treat colds and flu and help muscular aches and pains. This is because lavender holds antiseptic properties and can relieve many of these symptoms with its camphorous and herbaceous undertones.

Additionally, something that many people do not know is lavender oil can help relieve the itch, which is associated with bites, stings or sunburnt skin. Lavender oil will help soothe and heal the affected areas. Lavender oil can also be used to help soothe acne symptoms as it moisturises the skin whilst acting as an antibacterial substance.
