Lavender, the Queen of Essential Oils

Looking for a versatile essential oil you can keep in your purse, pack for a trip, or use every day at home and work? Lavender is your go-to.

Often called the “queen of essential oils,” lavender is the most widely loved and used essential oil around the world. Its scent ranges from deeply floral to earthy and herbaceous. The Bulgarian Lavender used in Thistle Farms products is known for its soft, balanced aroma that works beautifully for everyone.

Here are just a few of our favorite ways to use it:

1. Freshen Your Home

Make your space feel fresh and inviting by creating a simple DIY scrub for your bathroom or kitchen. Mix lavender essential oil with common pantry ingredients to add a light, naturally clean scent to your cleaning routine.

2. Personal Scent Rituals

Lavender oil can be a lovely part of your personal care routine. Just a drop on pulse points or added to unscented lotion offers a soft floral aroma throughout the day. As with all essential oils, be sure to test for sensitivity before applying directly to skin.

3. Set the Mood at Home

Add lavender essential oil to your diffuser to create a calming atmosphere in your living space—perfect for winding down at the end of the day or adding a peaceful touch to your workspace.

4. Bath Time Upgrade

Swirl a few drops into a warm bath and take a deep breath. Lavender’s gentle, grounding scent can help make any evening routine feel more intentional and restful.

5. For Your Furry Friends

We loved developing our lavender pet freshening spray, and so did our pups! It’s crafted with simple, naturally derived ingredients—and of course, a touch of calming lavender aroma.

Lavender Essential Oil is a gentle favorite that can add a little ease and enjoyment to your daily rituals. Discover its versatility and see how it fits into your unique rhythm.
