Lavender is one essential oils that should be in every home and first aid kit! Lavender is the most "universal" oil and is the Swiss army knife of essential oils. It is steam distilled from Lavandula angustifolia.
Lavender is one of the few essential oils that is safe to use neat or undiluted, on the skin, if it is therapeutic grade.
