Brimming with bioactive compounds of carnosic acid, camphor, and rosmaridiphenol.

Our Rosemary Essential Oil from the high plateaus contains more camphor and cineole than rosemary growing at sea level. This refreshing Rosemary has traditionally been used to enhance the skin’s appearance, improve memory, remove dry flakes from the scalp, and add shine to the hair. Rosemary is particularly suited to skin, hair, and cuticle care with its tonifying, cleansing, rejuvenating, acne-washing, and skin invigorating qualities.

Rosemary’s reviving aroma is clarifying to breath and body, and is mentally restorative, helping to increase focus and quell confusion. Additionally, rosemary releases stagnation, revving emotions to move from apathy into renewed confidence and motivation.

100% rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) essential oil.

“In aromatherapy, rosemary is a problem oil. Hardly any other oil is so routinely adulterated and diluted….
Quality can only be provided by producers who make the oil exclusively for the aromatherapy market, and whose oils will command the appropriate price.”
~Kurt Schnaubelt, Ph.D., Advanced Aromatherapy

“In aromatherapy, the oil is used as a tonic for the nerves, heart and circulation…
It has a refreshing, invigorating scent which has a reviving, uplifting effect on the spirit and helps dispel confusion and give the mind clarity…
Rudolf Steiner thought that rosemary fortified the vital center of an individual and increased the activity of the whole metabolism.”
~Julia Lawless, Aromatherapy and the Mind

“Rosemary oil stimulates hair follicles and circulation in the scalp and thus may be helpful in premature baldness too.
The oil is useful in controlling dandruff, promoting hair growth and controlling greasy hair.
Rosemary oil is also used in shampoo, as it is known to impart a black color to hair.”
~K. V. Peter, Handbook of Herbs and Spices

“There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance, pray you love, remember.”
~William Shakespeare, Hamlet
