Lavender Essential oil

Always have NY Lavender on my bedside table. Rub in palms, 4 deep inhales as part of my sleep routine - it really helps wind down for a good nights sleep.

Gorgeous oil

I always choose Neals Yard for my essential oils as you can always rely on the quality of their products.

This oil smells lovely and is not too overwhelming.

I have also been using this oil to deter fruit flies by adding a few drops to warm soapy water and wiping around my kitchen and adding a few drops to mop water.
