Echinacea is the popular kid in class; herbalists have been recommending the pretty purple flower dried or tinctured for years, yet only recently has the potent essential oil become available.

One drop of Echinacea Essential Oil in a teaspoon of honey alights and fortifies the body against elements and invaders, blesses deep breathing, and soothes heat and redness. Applied topically, Echinacea Essential Oil is a do-all for the skin; it soothes smooths, cleanses, and cools skin with any issue that needs some TLC.

“For twenty to twenty-five years, echinacea has been passing through the stages of critical experimentation under the observation of several thousand physicians, and its remarkable properties are receiving positive confirmation… All who use it correctly fall quickly into line as enthusiasts in its praise.”
~Ellingwood, 1919

“Under the older classification of remedies, echinacea would probably be classified as an antiseptic and alterative. Strictly speaking, it is practically impossible to classify an agent like echinacea by applying to it one or two words to indicate its virtues. The day is rapidly approaching when these qualifying terms will have no place in medicine, for they but inadequately convey to our minds the therapeutic possibilities of our drugs.”
~King’s American Dispensatory 1898
