Holland and Barrett Lavender Pure Essential Oil

**THE PRICE** I purchased a 10ml bottle of lavender essential oil for £3.99 from Holland and Barrett alongside some throat lozenges on a buy one get one half price offer that they are doing across every product in store at present. You can purchase Nofolk Lavender essential oil (reputed to be top quality) from www.neoils.com for £3.50 per 10ml which is slightly better value although harder to get hold of on the high street and you would need to pay P&P. **THE PACKAGING** It comes in a small brown glass bottle inside an orange box accompanied by a leaflet with information about the different applications of the oils that they stock. Being a pure ...  Read the complete review

Lavender oil is by far, one of the most versatile types of essential oil. When I read through a list of natural remedies for common ailments, lavender oil appears as a remedy, 8 out of 10 times. Lavender oil is also one of the few essential oil in which you can use a small amount direct on our skin. When buying lavender essential oil, it is important to get one that is pure. There are cheap lavender oils sold in shops that smell like chemically treated fragrance and they do not have the same effect as pure lavender essential oil. One definite give away of non pure oil is the clear container. Essential oil is contained in dark container so as to protect the ...  Read the complete review

Lavender pure essential oil has so many uses, and I'm never too far away from a bottle. Pure essential oils can be expensive and Holland and Barrett sell 10ml bottles for £3.99 and 20ml bottles for £6.79, which is very reasonably priced. If you just looking to fragrance your home then I would suggest buying bottled of fragrance oil rather than essential oil, as it would work out a lot cheaper, but if you're looking for the aromatherapy benefits then this product is well worth the money. Lavender can be used in many ways, I find it particularly helpful for headaches and sleep - taking advantage of its sedative properties; but it can also be used to treat ...  Read the complete review

I can honestly say that this product should be found in everyones first aid kit at home - it is an absolute must! And Holland and Barrett have produced a wonderful product that is pure, undilluted and very reasonably priced at £3.99 for the 10ml bottle or £6.79 for the 20ml. However, I would add that Holland and Barrett have fantastic sales and the prices of this product are greatly reduced during these promotions, giving the consumer even greater savings. Lavender Oil is an all round, multi purpose essential oil and is probably the most well known of all the essential oils. By 'pure essential' oil I am NOT referring to room fragrance oil which is purely ...  Read the complete review

Complete First aid kit in one bottle. I first took an interest in aromatherapy in the late 1970s long before it became fashionable. I had two little ones and I did not want to pump them full of chemicals I wanted all things natural for them. Of course lavendar oil is a chemical, but it is beneficial. Holland and Barretts pure lavendar oil is paricularly good qualiy and at just under £7 for a large 20ml bottle it is very good value. As you only use it in small quantities (a few drops at a time) it lasts for ages. What can you use it for? The list is endless so I will only mention a few. When your children are fractious at bedtime, put a drop or two in ...  Read the complete review
