Chamomile (German Blue) - 10ml

Chamomile (German Blue), also known as Blue Chamomile, is a highly prized oil steam-distilled from the flowers of Matricaria chamomilla. Native to Europe but now cultivated in various parts of the world, this oil is renowned for its rich blue hue, which comes from the natural compound chamazulene - a powerful anti-inflammatory agent formed during distillation.

Known for its exceptional calming and healing properties, German Chamomile is frequently used to soothe irritated skin, reduce inflammation, and ease muscular aches. It's especially helpful for skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and rashes. Its anti-allergenic, antispasmodic, and analgesic effects also make it ideal for relieving digestive discomfort, menstrual cramps, and tension headaches.

In aromatherapy, German Blue Chamomile  is cherished for its deep emotional support. It helps calm anxiety, irritability, and insomnia, offering comfort during times of emotional distress. Its warm, herbaceous, slightly sweet scent is deeply grounding and promotes inner peace.

Though potent, it is gentle enough for sensitive skin when properly diluted. This oil blends beautifully with florals, citrus, and woods, making it versatile in both therapeutic and perfumery applications.
