GERMAN (TRUE) CHAMOMILE (Matricaria recutita) - Chamomile has a long history of helping skin conditions, such as dermatitis, boils, acne, skin rash, eczema and psoriasis, as well as relieving a variety of body aches and pains. Chamomile balances sebum production and is useful for both oily and dry, as well as sensitive skin types.

True Chamomile oil is effective when used in a carrier oil such as Jojoba and applied directly to your skin. Use it in any blend for soothing inflamed skin, i.e. acne.

If you wish to try it in a blend I recommend you try one of the more emotionally supportive oils like Geranium, Helichrysum, Lavender, Atlas Cedarwood, Himalayan Cedarwood, Clary Sage, Frankincense, Neroli, Orange, Petitgrain, Rose, Sandalwood or Vetiver.

PLEASE NOTE: There are many cheap,! synthetic copies of aromatic oils, but these are not recommended for therapeutic use. For best results purchase the highest quality oils you can possibly find. Use certified organic essential oils, or oils that have been tested and are pesticide free.

Aromatherapy is a gentle and noninvasive complementary health care system used for balancing and synchronizing your body, mind, spirit and emotions to enhance your health. Properly administered essential oils are a natural, safe and effective way to enhance your health and well-being and can produce satisfying results where other methods have failed. Please consult with your physician regarding serious health concerns and do not attempt to self diagnose.
