Chamomile German Blue Essential Oil

Early morning petal plucking results in the best distillations with abundant matricine, which is fuller in flowers at dawn. High quantities of soothing sesquiterpenes impart this distillation with a deep oceanic blue color and express compelling cooling and calming properties. This blue-hue essence is a champion ingredient for fortifying facials and benevolent body serums.

Consecrated by many a midwife, Matricaria, from the Latin ‘matrix’ (womb) and ‘mater’ (mother) is appreciated as a birth tonic.

While both Roman Chamomile and German Chamomile are champions for skincare, they are distinct in color and scent. The gossamer-gold liquid of Roman Chamomile is sunshine on a summer day with comforting notes of honeyed hay. While German Chamomile’s oceanic blue hue offers an unflappable-floral that is here to keep your skin and your spirit calm, cool, and clear with its nexus-nectar.
