Lotus Touch Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil
Clearing, camphoraceous and herbaceous. Menthol-like fragrance. Colorless liquid. Camphor aroma is good with steam.
Note: All Lotus Touch essential oils are pure, therapeutic grade oils. Before bottling, each batch is tested to ensure purity, potency and quality. Did you know only 3% of all essential oils on the market are therapeutic grade?
Origin: China
Latin/Species: eucalytpus globulus
Distillation/Extraction Method: Steam distillation from the fresh or partly dried, long and narrow leaves of the tree
Suggested Use: Extremely useful during the winter months. It can be very effective in a steam inhalation. Try adding 2 drops eucalyptus, 1 drop Roman chamomile and 1 drop lavender to a bowl of just-boiled water. Lean over the bowl (not too close) with a towel covering your head and inhale the vapors for a few minutes. Alternatively, blend the same oils in two teaspoons of Lotus Touch UltraLight Oil Complex and massage into the chest and back. Also, blended with citronella or cedarwood in an oil burner, eucalyptus can help maintain an insect-free BBQ! Alternatively, try the lemon-scented Eucalyptus Citriodora as a very powerful natural insect-repellent.
Did you know: Australian Aborigines refer to the plant as ‘Kino’ and bind the leaves to serious wounds.
This is eucalyptus 80/85, which refers to the eucalyptol content in the oil (80-85%). Other companies may supply an inferior quality known as 70/75. There are hundreds of different types of eucalyptus that contain high levels of eucalyptol, but globulus is the most popular. The Chinese production’s quality is good and very consistent.
Specific Safety Advice: A powerful oil to be used in moderation.
