FEATURES AND BENEFITS

True Blue Beauty: Naturally rich in chamazulene, Tansy Blue Essential Oil can be used as a natural colorant in skin and hair care, candles, soaps, and other blends. Its signature blue tint, a color often linked to calm and tranquility, adds to the oil’s soothing effect.

Soothing, Sweet & Surprisingly Fruity: Tansy Blue’s scent is a mellow middle note that blends floral hints with luscious fruit undertones. Its relaxing aroma, akin to lavender but brighter and fruitier, contributes a calming quality to personal care products.

Moroccan Botanical Staple: Steam distilled from the flowers and leaves of Tanacetum annuum in Morocco, this oil is also known as True Moroccan Chamomile. Historically used for protection and cleansing, it’s now a favorite in modern skin care.

A Sign of Endurance & Protection: The name “Tansy” is rooted in the Greek word Athanasia, meaning immortality — a nod to the plant’s long-lasting nature. Known for thriving in difficult conditions, Tansy has long represented strength and resilience in herbal traditions.

Calm Complexions: High in chamazulene and sabinene, this oil helps calm the look of redness and irritation. Ideal for acne-prone, dry, or sensitive skin types. It can also be used in hair care products to nourish the scalp and add a calming touch to your blends.


DESCRIPTION

Soft, sweet, and sapphire blue — Tansy Blue Essential Oil (also known as Blue Tansy or True Moroccan Chamomile) is steam distilled from the leaves and flowers of Tanacetum annuum. Native to Morocco, this distinctive essential oil is prized for its vivid blue hue, soothing properties, and sweet, herbaceous scent.

Rich in chamazulene, Blue Tansy is a go-to in skin care for its ability to calm and balance the look of irritated or inflamed skin. A fruity-floral aroma adds a mellow, comforting note to diffuser blends, facial serums, luxury perfumes, and body care products. Just a note: this rich blue oil can lightly tint bases, so test your batch to achieve your desired results.

This oil is verified by ECOCERT / Cosmos Approved.


DIRECTIONS & SUGGESTED USAGE

    • Soothing Suds: Bring the calm to cold process and melt-and-pour soaps with the signature blue hue and soft, sweet scent of Tansy Blue Essential Oil. Use at 0.25–1%. Start with a trial batch to find your ideal color and fragrance strength.

    • Blue Flame Beauty: Add a touch of luxury to candles with this mellow, fruity-floral middle note. Perfect for spa-inspired blends and relaxation-focused collections. Use Tansy Blue Essential Oil at 1–5% of the fragrance load, depending on wax type and scent strength desired.

    • Scent with Intention: From pulse-point rollers to high-end perfumes, Tansy Blue brings an unexpected twist with its earthy, slightly fruity aroma. Use 0.1–2% of Tansy Blue Essential Oil depending on the intensity you’re after. Test in small batches before scaling.

    • Complexion Companion: A go-to for serums, creams, balms, and facial oils, Tansy Blue is loved for its skin-soothing properties and gentle aroma. Use 0.1–0.5% of Tansy Blue Essential Oil in leave-on products. As with any new skin care ingredient, patch testing is recommended before full use.

    • Blue-Ribbon Hair Care: Soothing for the scalp and aromatic for the senses, add Tansy Blue to conditioners, masks, and scalp treatments. Use at 0.1–0.5% and blend with nourishing carriers like argan or jojoba for best results.

    • Blissful Baths: Infuse bath oils, body butters, and scrubs with the calming scent and rich blue tone of this Moroccan gem. Use 0.1–1% of Tansy Blue Essential Oil, blend well, and test in a small batch if your formula contains white bases.

    • A Breath of Blue: Add a few drops to your diffuser or an aromatherapy blend to create a mellow, comforting atmosphere. Start with 1–3 drops of Tansy Blue Essential Oil per 100mL of water or adjust to preference.
