Rosemary Essential Oil – 10ml

Native to the Mediterranean but now found across the globe, rosemary essential oil has long been used in aromatherapy by those who believe this potent herb has the power to reduce inflammation, improve memory and even encourage hair growth.

With a powerful, fresh scent, rosemary essential oil is a refreshing addition to any aromatherapy collection. Renowned for having its energising aroma, rosemary oil is often used by those wishing to channel their focus and reinvigorate their senses.

It’s claimed that the scent of rosemary can help to regulate disturbed sleep, which is why the herb or a few drops of oil are often used in handmade sleep pillows. Combine this ancient herb with the soothing fragrance of lavender essential oil for the perfect bedtime blend.

Believed to aid mental alertness, rosemary essential oil is also popular with those keen to maintain or improve their memory. When used topically in beauty products, some claim rosemary oil can reduce the effects of ageing on the skin, and so it’s often diluted with a little water and applied to the face as part of a nightly skincare routine.

Rosemary oil benefits

Associated with a long list of benefits, rosemary essential oil is thought by many to help treat skin conditions such as acne, to promote circulation, to prevent hair loss and to reduce the pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis. This essential oil is also believed by some to reduce dandruff, slow down the greying of hair and help with hair growth.

Rosemary is also said to have antibacterial qualities. Because of this, rosemary oil is often used as part of a daily skincare routine. Thought to help cleanse and purify the face, it’s often used to help balance the natural oils found in our own skin.

As is the case with most natural remedies, there is limited research to confirm or disprove the health claims about rosemary essential oil. As always we recommend doing your own research and speaking to a professional if you are considering using rosemary oil for anything more than its gorgeous fresh fragrance.

Rosemary oil uses

One of the most popular uses for rosemary essential oil is as a relaxing massage oil. With a scent that lifts the mood in any space, rosemary is the perfect choice for a home massage to soothe aching muscles.

With many convinced that rosemary oil has the ability to boost hair growth and improve the condition of hair, it’s often added to shampoos and conditioners to leave hair smelling fabulous and looking fantastic.

For a relaxing bath time, add a few drops of oil to a hot bath. Said to reduce inflammation and ease a tired mind, it’s the perfect fragrance for some time out in the tub.

If you’re looking to blend rosemary oil with another essential oil, try combining it with eucalyptus or peppermint to create a fresh scent for an instant lift.
