A known scent is Lavender, it’s a beautiful evergreen shrub or shade of colour. Quality sourcing is crucial, from extraction to addition in our Tone and Defence Formula Skin Oil.

Lavender skin is youthful

Using the essential oil in small, safe quantities naturally improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This ability is due to relaxation of the muscles within the skin.  This is similar to Botox but (unlike this controversial product) lavender is completely natural with no long term risks.

Soothing Effects

Lavender can be used to soothe the senses. Conditions such as restlessness, insomnia, nervousness, and depression can be remedied with the tonic herb.

Some people use it for painful conditions including headaches, toothache, sprains, nerve pain, sores, and joint pain.  Inflamed tissues within our bodies, communicates pain to our brains. No one wants pain! But this is natural, so the body does something. Reduction in tissue inflammation causes the relief of discomfort. Some people add it to bathwater to treat circulation disorders and improve overall mental well-being.

Spots or acne heal better. Within a spot, bacteria trigger natural body mechanisms to cause inflammation.

Women find that their period is a trialing week in the month. This inconvenient time can also be eased with the use of T&D skin oil or lavender herb smells.

Healthy hair

Alopecia areata is a hair loss condition. Using Lavender on the scalp, in a topical solution can aid the condition.  The scalp receives nourishment, therefore promoting the growth of health hair. You must consult a qualified individual, prior to application in pure form. However, using T&D skin oil (has been independently tested) on the scalp, can provide nourishment

In conclusion, this botanical agent has a wide variety of uses. We forgot to mention, alongside the health, mental state and skin, it also repels mosquitoes and other unwanted insects. Its extremely unlikely that an allergic effect is seen and hence it is an essential ingredient in the T&D Skin Oil.
