Popular as a herbal tea, chamomile essential oil makes an effective skin treatment thanks to its calming and toning properties. It has a strong anti-inflammatory action that penetrates the skin’s layers to soothe and repair, useful for skin conditions such as eczema and for healing.
What is it good for?
Soothes skin A deeply soothing and calming oil, chamomile has anti-inflammatory properties that make it ideal for treating allergic skin conditions and sensitive skin and scalps. It helps to relieve the itchy, inflamed skin caused by rashes, cracked nipples, and conditions such as chicken pox. Its efficacy in treating eczema rivals treatments such as hydrocortisone.
Heals and cleanses skin A repairing oil, chamomile helps heal scratches and wounds, and also has been shown to promote faster tissue regeneration than corticosteroids. Its mildy astringent properties help to clean blocked pores
Acts as a mild pain reliever The anti-inflammatories present in chamomile, bisabolol and apigenin, work in a similar way to analgesics such as ibuprofen, providing effective mild pain relief and helping ease conditions such as arthritis.
Soothes digestion Chamomile is a natural soother and a popular remedy for calming digestive upsets. It can be used to treat a range of digestive complaints such as indigestion, peptic ulcers, and bouts of colic.
Strengthens immunity Use chamomile as a first line of defense against viruses and infection. It boosts immunity by stimulating leucocyte (white blood cell) production.
Promotes restful sleep Chamomile helps to calm irritability, nervousness, and tension headaches, helping promote relaxation and sleep.
Best Uses:
As a bath oil Mix with 1 tablespoon of milk to disperse the oil in a bath. The heat and fragrant steam can relax muscles and help calm anxiety.
In a massage oil A gentle massage with a chamomile oil blend helps ease insomnia, back pain, stomach upsets, and menstrual pain, boosts immunity, and lifts depression.
In a compress Add a few drops of chamomile essential oil to a wet, wrung-out cloth to make a cool compress that can help heal sores and calm allergic skin reactions
In a skin cream Add a few drops to a cream base for a healing skin cream.
Safe usage Nontoxic, nonirritant in dilution.
