Eucalyptus leaves are a traditional Aboriginal herbal remedy. The essential oil found in the leaves is a powerful antiseptic and is used all over the world for relieving coughs and colds and other infections. It is one of our favorites to use in a diffuser during the winter. The scent is crisp, slightly sweet and fresh. It is also an essential oil we add to our revitalize soap, lotion and candle.
Benefits:
Eucalyptus has been found to be balancing, stimulating, refreshing, clearing, and purifying. It has antiviral, antiseptic and disinfectant properties and may help repel insects.
Directions for Use:
Our essential oils are unadulterated which means they are 100% pure. Never use pure essential oils directly on skin without diluting it first.
