Lavender Essential Oil Uses

Lavender Essential Oil is a natural moth repellant! Tuck a couple Organic Lavender Sachets in with your winter sweater storage to keep the moths at bay. Give 'em a squeeze now and again to ensure continued release of the essential oil. Non-Toxic!

Did you know... Lavender essential oil contains naturally occurring antiseptic and antibacterial properties? It can be used directly on the skin to treat cuts, burns, abrasions, insect bites & stings. It's also a powerful addition to chemical-free cleansing and sanitizing for both body and home. Now you know.

Tre the calming, cleansing and therapeutic benefits of organic lavender.

Pelindaba's Organic Lavender Essential Oil is 100% organic and is distilled exclusively at our on-site distillery using only our own flowers. Our Lavender Essential Oil is pure, we do not mix, blend or dilute our Organic Lavender Essential Oil.

In a dropper bottle we use it in the bath, in the diffuser, as a solvent to remove adhesives and the like and between our dog's shoulder blades to keep fleas and ticks at bay. In a roll-on bottle we use it to treat bites, stings & burns and to aid healing, on our upper lips at bedtime to help us sleep, on the temples to reduce tension headaches, on exposed skin as an insect repellant or simply as a delicate perfume. All that from 1 single ingredient, lavender essential oil. Plants are…

Paired with Organic Lavender Essential Oil and Lavender Linen Water, dryer balls make a thoughtful and useful holiday gift.

This year's #essentialoil distillation has finished. A+ for our #lavenderfields and A+ for our farm crew who lovingly nurture our young plants, our middle-aged plants and the plants that are still producing years beyond all our expectations. #betterwithage After aging for a couple of years, these fragrant gallons will be used to make all our products!

Organic Lavender Mask Mist For use with your lavender face mask (or any fabric face covering!), it provides effective, non-chemical prevention and treatment of mask-caused acne-like breakouts and delivers stress-reducing mask freshening. Organic lavender essential oil and hydrosol's antimicrobial and stress-relieving properties help keep bacteria and anxiety at a minimum everywhere you go. Bonus — it also smells delightful...almost like walking through fields of blooming lavender!

Lavender's broad-ranging, naturally occurring properties provide benefit to nearly every aspect of daily life. Whether one is being creative in the kitchen, caring for their health and well-being, managing their home, caring for their pets, cultivating a garden, etc., lavender has a useful place. We've curated a list of several of our favorite lavender products that we (and others) love to use at home or out and about. Where do you use your lavender?

Walking through tens of thousands of lavender plants is an experience like no other. The fragrance is nature's best aromatherapy treatment!

In the distillery we are working through the last of the lavender harvest. As time consuming as it is to harvest by hand and as material intensive as it is to distill pure plant essential oils, it is a highly rewarding process. At the end of every day, we have 35 gallons of organic lavender hydrosol and 5 gallons of organic lavender essential oil ready to be aged. It requires 1,280 plants to make that much hydrosol and essential oil! Talk about a daily labor of love!

This is what the very end of the distillation cycle looks like moments after the steam chamber is opened revealing hot, steamy, post-distillation plant material. Our farm crew works very hard harvesting by hand all day long and toting hundreds of pounds of lavender to the distillery for each distillation cycle. The moment the steam chamber is opened they get a well-deserved and all too brief trip to a lavender steam bath. We wish you call could come to our "farm spa" and experience it too!

A lavender face mask for all of us lavender lovers! Sewn by hand on San Juan Island, WA, these masks are made with a striking lavender flower patterned 100% cotton exterior and muslin lining. Pair your lavender mask with our Organic Lavender Essential Oil to carry the soothing, calming and anxiety-reducing properties of lavender with you throughout the day. A couple of drops on your mask will make a trip to the grocery store almost like strolling through a field of lavender.

Did you know that, although there is also some lavender essential oil produced in the stems and foliage, it is most concentrated in the buds? Squeeze a few between your fingers and you'll see what we mean! If you have any sachets at home that aren't as fragrant as they once were, give them a good squeeze to break open the buds and release more essential oil. This will extend the sachet's life. That was a pro tip!

We smell amazing! At the farm we are transitioning to the "peak of fragrance" when essential oil reaches its full production in each little lavender bud and the fields are most fragrant. You can smell amazing too with our Organic Lavender Sachet and Organic Lavender Essential Oil combo produced directly from the bountiful fields.

A path bordered by lavender is always in need of hands to brush through the flowering blossoms. If you pass by some lavender on your weekend wanderings pause and comb your hands through the fragrant flowers. This is the perfect time for a few deep inhales and exhales. Breathe in the scent of lavender and breathe out worry, stress and anxiety...and repeat.
