Aromatherapy Properties:
(Uses)
This Oil is the most
popular type of lavender Essential Oils.
The Lavender 40/42% is a standardized essential oil. The “40/42%” refers
to the content of linalool and linalyl acetate, which are two aromatic
components responsible for conferring scent we most closely associate with
Lavender. |
|
|
|
|
| |
Lavender 40/42% is always carefully developed so the linalool and linalyl
acetate levels are in the 40/42% range resulting in a final product that always
smells more or less the same. This consistency maintains the scent to be the
same from batch to batch. |

 Has a sedative action on the heart, assists in
bringing down high blood pressure, relieves insomnia, relieves muscular spasms
and rheumatic pains. The first essential oil one should reach for in the case of
minor burns and sunburn.
Useful with menstrual problems, bronchitis and headaches, helps lower blood
pressure. Useful in a diffuser in the delivery room. May be useful in
nausea, vomiting and colic. Keeps insects at bay. Purifies the air. Promotes
growth of new skin cells, great healing effect on burns and sunburn, acne,
psoriasis, boils, fungal growths, and scarring. Lavender is one of the
safest essential oils to use with the elderly. The numbers in Lavender 40/42
indicate the linalyl acetate content; in this case, they indicate the
product contains 40-42% of linalyl acetate. Lavender 40/42 is generally a
blend of various lavenders in order to get a consistent scent from batch to
batch, with processors adding linalyl acetate to cover the smell of camphor
or borneol components of a given lavender.
Since pure essential oils (not diluted,
adulterated or tampered with to make them smell better) are ""from the plant""
each lot may vary slightly (sometimes noticeably) due to the climate conditions
that year, altitude of the region they're grown in, time of day harvested, etc.
Most soapers seem to prefer the Lavender 40/42
because it smells the way they believe lavender should smell and it's fairly
inexpensive......about half the price of other, more expensive lavenders. |

Pure
&
Therapeutic Essential Oils : |
|
This oil is Therapeutic Grade. Commercial Grade essential oils are usually made of the
left over plant materials after finishing the therapeutic distillation process.
The commercial
grade oils retain a robust fragrance suitable for soap making, candle making, as
well as cosmetic manufacturing. Unfortunately, because of the reduced active
therapeutic content, the commercial grade oils will not be suitable for aromatherapy or massage
therapy applications.
Silky Scents Essential Oils are all Pure and Therapeutic Grade, not
Commercial Grade. |

Close all windows and doors to prevent the oil vapors from escaping. Fill the
bathtub with warm/hot water. To soften your skin and remove impurities, dissolve
1 cup bath salt in the warm water. In the meantime, mix the carrier oil of your
choice with the essential oils. Pour the essential oil/carrier oil mixture into
the warm bath water. Swirl the water to disperse the oil evenly. Enter the bath
immediately, since the essential oils will evaporate quickly. Relax and enjoy
the bath for at least 30 minutes. |
