Description

Lavandin essential oil (Lavandula X intermedia) is steam distilled from the flowering tops of a naturally occurring hybrid between true lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and spike lavender (Lavandula latifolia).

Renowned for its fresh, herbaceous, and slightly camphoraceous aroma, lavandin offers a unique balance of lavender’s soothing qualities and spike lavender’s invigorating energy—making it a versatile favourite for beauty, wellness, and household care.

Key Benefits & High-Intent Features

  • Calming & Stress Relief: Promotes relaxation, helps ease anxiety, and may support restful sleep—perfect for diffusers, meditation, or aromatic baths.

  • Pain & Muscle Relief: With higher camphor content than true lavender, lavandin is effective for easing muscular aches, cramps, body aches, rheumatism, and overall tension. Popular in massage blends for athletes and active individuals.

  • Respiratory Support: The camphoraceous aspect provides strong decongestant action, helping clear nasal passages and ease breathing during colds or allergies (via steam inhalation or diffusion).

  • Skin Healing & Cleansing: Antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial—supports wound healing, soothes irritations (acne, eczema), speeds healing of cuts and bites, and brightens skin. Often used in face masks, toners, and healing balms.

  • Mood Lifting & Energizing: Fresh, herbal scent elevates mood, combats fatigue, and may support focus and stamina.

  • Natural Insect Repellent: Camphor content makes lavandin a natural choice for DIY bug sprays and keeps insects at bay. Also soothes bites and relieves itching.

  • Hair & Scalp: Can promote scalp health, ease dandruff, and improve hair shine and manageability—try in hair masks or scalp oils.

  • Home & Cleaning: Uplifts home ambiance, disinfects naturally, and is popular in homemade cleaning recipes, laundry, and linen sprays.

How to Use Lavandin Essential Oil

Aromatherapy:

  • Diffuse 4–8 drops for relaxation, stress relief, or freshening up your home. Pair with citrus, rosemary, or mint oils for extra uplift.

  • Add to bathwater for calming, restorative soaks, or use in steam inhalation to ease congestion.

Topical (Always Dilute!):

  • Massage: Use 1–6 drops in 10ml carrier oil for sore muscles, tension, or post-workout recovery.

  • Skin & Face: Add to creams or serums (patch test first) for wound healing, acne, or skin balance.

  • Bug Repellent: Blend with water/alcohol or other oils in a spray for natural bug defense.

  • Hair: Include in a scalp oil or shampoo for hair shine, dandruff relief, and a fragrant boost.

Home Care:

  • Use in laundry, cleaning sprays, or mists to disinfect and freshen clothes and surfaces.

Safety & Precautions:

  • For external use only; always dilute before applying to skin.

  • Patch test for sensitivities; avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

  • If pregnant, breastfeeding, or using on children, consult a health professional before use.

  • Store in a cool, dark place, out of reach of children.

I just discovered the differences between lavandin, lavender Bulgaria and the French lavender

It's quite amazing how different and similar at the same time those lavenders are. I didn't realize that you can have so subtle balances that gives you so different experiences. I'm now enjoying playing between those 3 essential oils. It's also a journey for me in the education of my smell and i'm starting to discover a sense that i never used properly before. Thank you for bringing us the "same" "different" product on your range.
