Our Favorite Lavender Products Wherever We Go

The usefulness of lavender has been on record for more than two millennia.  Some of the earliest references to using lavender come from ancient Egypt where it was reputedly used as part of the mummification process, and from the Roman Empire as a regular bathing adjunct and personal fragrance.  Throughout history it has been well-regarded for it's broad range of uses — from personal care and therapy to household care and culinary.

Today, lavender's naturally occurring properties continue to 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.

Here are a few of our favorite lavender products that we (and lots of others) love to use at home or out and about.

 

Lavender Insect Repellant

 

Indispensable for outdoor activities, evenings in the backyard, picnics, camping, boating, hiking or while in the garden, our Lavender Insect Repellant takes advantage of lavender essential oil's long recognized and naturally occurring insect repellant qualities.  The safe (for everyone - including pets) and gentle formula helps to ward off mosquitoes, black flies, gnats and fleas and may also provide protection against ticks. 

"Best I ever used. Saw and heard insects, but they didn't bite me! Not sticky or smelly!"

Susan - New York

 

 

Lavender Lip Balm

Perfectly sized for purse or pocket, our all-natural Lavender Lip Balm formula uniquely blends several naturally occurring oils recognized over the centuries for their extraordinary moisturizing, healing and protective properties.  Especially suitable for the prevention and management of acute and chronic lip dryness or irritation.

"I bought this for my 12 year old granddaughter whose lips are always dry. She loves it!"
Christine - Connecticut 

 

 

Lavender Lip Therapy

Our all-natural Lavender Lip Therapy extends the traditional moisturizing benefits of lip balm.  It has been specially formulated to provide antiseptic and anti-inflammatory therapeutic benefits that are particularly beneficial for treating severe dryness and preventing cold sores.  It is also uniquely packaged as a lipstick, not only for convenience but also as this allows the therapy to be applied to the inflamed area of the lips without requiring finger contact.

"This is one of my favorite lip savers. It is light, never sticky and works. Please don't change the formula - this one really works!"
Yogaenthusiast - Massachusetts

 

Lavender Hand Sanitizer

Wherever hand washing isn't available, Lavender Hand Sanitizer brings together the natural sanitizing and soothing qualities of our own farm-distilled organic lavender essential oil. The inherent antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties of lavender shine in this regularly-used product — in both alcohol-free and alcohol-based versions.

"I love your Lavender Hand Sanitizer! It is superior to any other hand sanitizer out there. Appreciate how it is not sticky, stinky, but indeed nourishing and has a pleasant lavender fragrance ... can’t imagine using anything else."
Janis - Washington

 

Lavender Body Mist

A long-standing favorite in our handcrafted product line, this fragrant mist incorporates the organic lavender essential oil and organic lavender hydrosol from our on-site distillation of the flowers we harvest from our organically certified fields.  Use as a personal fragrance and to rehydrate dry skin, cool sunburn and soothe minor irritations

"I love the body mist. There are no chemicals added, so it is safe for skin and materials. I love having it with me on a hot summer day for a quick refresher!"
Kathryn - Illinois
