Essential Oil Rosemary

Rosemary Essential Oil is thought to be a good stimulant. It helps mental clarity and revives a poor memory.

It's a very useful oil to smell during exams and is also great for that Monday morning feeling. A few drops in the bath are helpful after an illness as a pick-me-up and tonic.

Because Rosemary has a warm, penetrating and stimulating odour it makes for a great Muscle Ease. Superb after sports activities - even more so when combined with Lavender and Marjoram. Dilute well in a Carrier Oil before skin application. Rosemary has also traditionally been used in skin and hair care.

It's a good toner and can be rejuvenating for the skin. You can add it to your shampoo - it makes an excellent rinse for dark hair and hair in poor condition. It restores colour to dark hair and helps combat dandruff when the scalp is dry.

Rosemary is also a strong antiseptic and can be used as an insect repellent - especially for lice.
