Lavender Month & OM

We are delighted to welcome the month of July by celebrating Lavender Month at Facebistro. More than just a soothing flower with a delightful scent, lavender, one of OM’s key ingredient, is a powerhouse packed with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agents. Today, we will be sharing with you some of Facebistro’s favourite lavender OM products.

Lavender stems from the Latin word ‘Lavare’, which means to wash. The plant was used by ancient Romans to scent their bath and in herbal medicine. Before lavender essential oil had been isolated, the plant itself has been used in traditional medicine for centuries. Herbal medicine recognised and utilised the healing and anti-inflammatory properties of lavender for various ailments. After distillation techniques had been discovered to obtain lavender essential oil, the popularity of the plant grew rapidly. The pleasant and calming fragrance of the oil led to it being used widely.

Lavender plants can typically be harvested in the second or third year for distillation, rendering it a relatively quick harvest crop and suitable for mass production. It is of no surprise that its usage has only increased throughout the years. Used to scent perfumes, soaps, and even to add taste to food products, the undeniable popularity of lavender has led to it being mass produced, often, compromising the purity of the end product.

OM’s lavender essential oils are certified organic and high in purity. Farmed in an eco-friendly and sustainable environment, production is highly controlled and limited, ensuring only all quality control standards are met. The main benefits of Lavender in skincare include its ability to:

1) Detoxifies and clears skin of impurities.
2) Sebum regulating and antibacterial properties prevents acne.
3) Potent anti-inflammatory that soothes and calms irritated and sensitised skin.
4) Reinforces skin moisture barrier and banishes dry spots.

Found in both the OM Lavender Hydrating Cream and the OM Hydro Fluid Super Hydrating Lotion, OM’s certified organic essential oils act to heal and calm the skin, protecting it from further damage while hydrating and nourishing it. Easy to use and quickly absorb, this complimentary pair of products will keep your skin soft and leave a mild, pleasant scent from head to toe.
