Tisserand Melissa Ethically Harvested Essential Oil 2ml
Tisserand Melissa Ethically Harvested Essential Oil 2ml is extensively used in cosmetic balms and preparations, Melissa is otherwise known as ‘lemon balm’ or ‘common balm’. Named after the Greek word for ‘honey’ the flowers of the plant are packed full of bee attracting nectar and gives off a sweet, lemony fragrance. Steam distillation of the leaves releases a unique sweet, citrus oil which is ideal in preparations to stabilise the mood and soothe fraught emotions. It takes a vast amount of leaves to produce the smallest amount of essential oil, so it is best used sparingly in aromatherapy blends. Used in a diffuser, Melissa will help to ease the spirit and help relieve symptoms of shock and anxiety. Blended in a carrier oil and applied to the forehead in an aromatherapy roller ball, Melissa is also a wonderful, natural help for soothing headaches and revitalising the body after periods of illness.
Ethically Harvested denotes sustainable cultivation. An ethically harvested essential oil is derived from a herb, shrub or tree that is not harvested so aggressively that the species becomes depleted. As far as aromatic plants are concerned, species depletion is only rarely a problem with herbs (which are mostly easy to grow in quantity) but tends to be more of an issue with slow-growing trees. Safety: Melissa is not recommended in massage for people with sensitive skin, but can be vaporised. For external use only. Do not use undiluted on the skin. Avoid contact with sensitive areas, such as eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use essential oils on children under 5 years old.
