Clove Bud Essential Oil

There are three different oils obtained from the clove tree - leaf, bud and stem. Bud is the safest to use as it has the lowest Eugenol content, though it is still as high as 60-90%. Clove Bud is sweet, spicy and fruity. It is used to invigorate and uplift, as well as being particularly good for reducing the pain of toothache and headaches.

Ingredients

The oil is steam distilled from the buds.

How to Use

Try adding 1 drop of Clove Bud and 1 drop of Lavender to a bowl of hand-hot water, soak a flannel in the water and wring out. Place the flannel on the affected area and leave until it loses its warmth. Diffuser: To help stave off winter chills, add 1 drop of Clove Bud, 2 drops of Lavender and 2 drops of Bergamot to the water in an oil burner or diffuser and allow the aroma to fill the room. NB: Do not use on children under the age of 2. Do not use on sensitive or damaged skin. Do not use more than 2 % dilition on the skin or mucous membrane.
