DESCRIPTION

From the Mediterranean mountains to your daily routine, Origanum (Origanum Vulgare) Essential Oil brings the bright, earthy essence of oregano to your skin and hair care, as well as home care. Derived from the Greek words oros (mountain) and ganos (joy), its name literally means “joy of the mountains.”

For centuries, this herb has been used by ancient Egyptians for food preservation and by Hippocrates in his healing practices. Oregano’s culinary fame grew after WWII, thanks to returning soldiers and their love for Italian pizza. But this essential oil brings even more to the table — enriching your daily rituals with powerful, natural benefits.


DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

    • Glow with Origanum: Add 1-2% of Origanum (Origanum Vulgare) Essential Oil to your daily moisturizer (about 6-12 drops per 1 ounce) to help support smoother, more radiant skin. Its antioxidant properties can enhance your complexion and promote a balanced appearance. Be sure to dilute properly and patch-test first to ensure compatibility with your skin.

    • Nourish from Root to Tip: Blend 1-2% of Origanum Oil with a carrier like Coconut Oil and gently massage into your scalp. This nourishing blend helps maintain healthy-looking hair and can also be used as a moisturizing leave-in conditioner after washing.

    • Oregano Oasis: Diffuse 1-2% of Origanum Oil to calm the mind and create a soothing atmosphere. In the bedroom, its natural calming properties can help reduce stress, promote relaxation, and support restful sleep.

    • Targeted Relief: For topical use, dilute 1-2% of Origanum Oil with a carrier oil. Gently apply to sore muscles, joints, insect bites, or minor skin irritations for a soothing, calming experience. Avoid applying to open wounds.

    • Naturally Deodorize and Disinfect: Make a natural disinfectant by mixing 1-2% of Origanum Oil with Lemon Essential Oil and water in a spray bottle. It’s perfect for keeping surfaces fresh and can help deter pests like ants and cockroaches.
