Spring in Winter
Lavender is known as one of the safest of all essential oils and it is also one of the most popular! That is one of the reasons it is so great for bath and body products. Since ancient times it has been symbolic of cleanliness and purity. The early Greek and Romans have documented its use in healing and used it for baths, as perfume and to treat many health problems.
The plant naturally produces the essential oil in its plant structure in minuscule little oil sacs within the plant. This whole plant is filled with scent in the blossoms, leaves, stems, and even the roots!
A lavender bath set makes a great gift for any season. The essential oil is extracted from the plant by various methods and then used in health products or for aromatherapy.
