also great for hair!



Rosemary essential oil balances emotions and mood swings. It lifts spirits and helps fight depression, stress and nervous exhaustion.


Plus, its stimulating, refreshing effect is great for waking up in the morning (add it to your shower gel) or for studying, driving or any time you need to focus.


Oh yeah, I almost forgot - it's also great for improving your memory.


Migraine sufferers may find that its penetrating scent and stimulating effect on the nervous system helps ease headaches. Dilute a drop or two in a tablespoon of carrier oil and rub gently into your temples (avoid your eyes!) and the back of your neck.
