It is extracted from the ylang ylang tree, which grows semi-wild in the South Sea Islands, particularly the Seychelles, Mauritius, Tahiti as well as the Philippines which is where the best oil is sourced. The essential oil is extracted by distillation from the flowers, which are freshly picked from the tree.

Ylang ylang is well known for its ability to regulate hormones and it is beneficial where there are problems related to the reproductive system for e.g. impotence and frigidity but at the same time is well known for its anti-depressant and aphrodisiac properties.

Ylang ylang has great calming qualities and helps to relax the nervous system and is therefore a good essential oil to use to help combat feelings of stress, shock, anger, fear and/or anxiety.

You can use this essential oil in several different ways.

In the bath: For a wonderfully relaxing experience at the end of a busy day, just add 6 - 8 drops of essential oil to a warm bath. Mix the water well before getting in.

In an oil burner: A good way of using essential oils is to vaporise them, for example by using an oil burner. To use an oil burner, fill the bowl at the top of the burner with water and place 6-10 drops of essential oil in the water. Then place a lighted tea light underneath the bowl. The water and essential oils evaporate as steam, letting the aroma of the essential oils fill the room.

For massage: Massage is also a very good method of application because the skin, as our largest organ, readily absorbs the essential oil into the bloodstream. You can use one or up to four essential oils according to your particular needs and add them to a cold-pressed oil, in a dilution of 5 drops of essential oil to 10ml of carrier oil. If you have particularly sensitive skin, use only 3 drops.

Ingredients: undiluted, 100% organic essential oils of ylang ylang
