Rosemary Verbenone (Rosmarinus Officinalis) contains the terpene verbenone, which makes it a gentler oil than other rosemary essential oils. This is why Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil is used for more specialized applications in restorative skin and hair care, along with respiratory system support, making Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil a protector of beauty and breath (our life force energy)!
Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil has been used in applications for stimulating hair growth, pain relief, inflammation reduction, and helping soothe a headache. It has also been traditionally included in soaps, face washes, face masks, toners, and creams to soothe skin conditions because of its antimicrobial, antiseptic, astringent, antioxidant, and tonic properties. Often conditions like psoriasis and eczema are treated with harsh prescription chemicals, but Rosemary has been traditionally used to gently and naturally treat these conditions, along with many others for centuries. Adding Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil to a beauty routine, may soothe and revitalize the skin and reinvigorate the hair and scalp. Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil can also be found in Miracle Botanicals Hair Tonic for these reasons.
As another physical benefit Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil can be diluted with a luxurious carrier oil in massage therapy to assist the body in detoxifying, reducing indigestion, bloating or constipation, as well as helping to stimulate circulation. This method of dermal application and absorption allows the body to absorb nutrients better and to be restored to expected function.
Using Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil in a diffuser can be a part of keeping a healthy atmosphere at home too! Rosemary Verbenone Essential Oil is commonly used aromatically to support treatments for bronchial conditions, colds, congested sinuses, lungs and deep coughs. It is also known to help with focus and memory improvement. Plus it has a deodorizing and uplifting effect, creating an energy in the environment of clarity, protection and ease.
