Its soothing scent helps relax the mind, alleviate stress and anxiety, and promote restful sleep. Topically, lavender can soothe burned skin, aid in healing cuts, burns, wounds, insect bites, and inflammation, and treat eczema and scar tissue. Our lavender, sourced from Provence, France, carries a subtle, aromatic spicy note, adding a unique depth to its calming properties.
