For a lot of people Lavender gives off a subtle and pleasant smell. Lavender has a lot of healing properties and is a natural medicine for certain conditions.

Relaxation

Probably the most common of uses for Lavender, is to relax. The fragrance is intoxicating and brings a sense of peace. I have seen a spilled bottle of Lavender essential oil on a crowded bus keep everyone calm when the bus made an unexpected turn. It’s true, Lavender can keep some people very calm and present.

Burn Relief

Depending on the severity of the burn, you can use lavender mixed with lotion on burns to take the sting out of the burn. This is especially helpful for the summer time sunburns. This technique is also useful on minor burns that are topical. Any major burn or injury should be consulted with your physician.

Mosquito and small Bug Bites

Much like the annoyance of sun burns, bug bites are not that different by equally being irritating. Much like taking the sting out of the burn, a mix of lavender oil and lotion can also take the itch out of the bug bite. It has been. thought that Lavender has antiseptic properties.
