BASIL Essential Oil (Certified Organic) 50ml

$16.06 CAD

In Greek its name means 'royal remedy' or 'king'. In the 16th century, powdered basil was used to treat migraines and chest infections. The ancient Egyptians believed that it would open the gates of heaven to a dying person, and the Hindus use basil sprigs to protect the dead from evil while in transition between lives.

Its pungent, warm, herbal aroma lend well to diffuser blends for clearing the air and helping a space to feel fresh, clean, and revitalized. Combine with lemon, bergamot, or lavender for uplifting aromas for your house. Blend with peppermint to help focus and energy while studying or reading.

Basil oil is a popular ingredient in steams used for facials or to support healthy breathing with other oils such as thyme, rosemary, or tea tree. It can be added to facial washes or in serums for occasional blemishes or irritations. You can add basil to massage blends for occasional muscle soreness with vetiver or eucalyptus.
