Wild Lavender Essential Oil
$25.00
Wild Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia), known as “true” lavender or the “mother of all lavenders,” is a rare, aromatic, and powerful sub-shrub native to the high-altitude rocky regions (around 1800m) of the Mediterranean. It prefers full sun and poor, well-drained soil, which enhances its strong “life force” and results in a more complex, less camphoraceous scent. Unlike cultivated types like Lavandin, which have an overpowering, camphor-heavy smell similar to Vicks VapoRub and are often used in industrial cleaning products, wild lavender provides a subtle, high-quality aroma. Typically hand-harvested from remote, uncultivated areas of Southern France, it yields a more nuanced essential oil with notable therapeutic and antiseptic qualities. This oil is highly valued in aromatherapy for its calming symbolism.
Key benefits of wild lavender essential oil include:
- Mental Wellness & Sleep: It is commonly used to lower stress, anxiety, and depression. Its calming effect helps reduce insomnia and promote deep, restful sleep.
- Skin Care & Healing: It functions as an anti-inflammatory to soothe sunburns, eczema, psoriasis, and minor skin irritations. Its antiseptic properties can help clean wounds and prevent scarring.
- Stretch Mark Management: helps fade stretch marks by promoting skin cell regeneration, boosting collagen production, and reducing inflammation, making it a powerful remedy for repairing skin tissue.
- Pain Relief: It can help relieve headaches, migraines, and muscle aches, especially when used in massages or with a compress.
- Respiratory Support: It has mucolytic and expectorant properties that can help relieve congestion and sinus problems.
Wild lavender essential oil is blended with fractionated coconut MCT (medium-chain triglycerides) oil, a carrier oil that is non-GMO, kosher, and vegan-friendly. MCT, a fat derived from coconut oil, offers more advantages than mineral oil thanks to its emollient and conditioning qualities. It provides better hydration and is skin-safe because it absorbs rapidly. This oil is popular in cosmetics for its mild aroma, which doesn't interfere with other aromatherapy oils.

Certified organic MCT fractionated coconut oil acts as a superior carrier oil for essential oils. This lightweight, odorless, and non-greasy oil is ideal for skincare and massage products that won't clog pores. It is a smooth, stable oil perfect for beauty formulations. MCT (multichannel triglyceride)-fractionated coconut oil provides nutrients and is readily absorbed into the skin due to its lightness. In contrast, olive oil is thicker when applied, making it less readily absorbed by the skin, and it has a distinct odor that could interfere with aromatherapy.
