Make sure you buy the adequate lavender oil for your purpose.



If it's just for burning in a room or for a bath, you can buy a cheaper one - like at Body Shop for example.



If it is for massage or inhalation or for taking internally, buy them at a pharmacy or at a health food store and check the quality.



Be aware that you need to know the latin name and the properties of the lavender oil you buy. There are 5 different types on the market. They all have different properties and one of them (Lavandula stoechas) is abortive and neurotoxic (damages your nervous system).



It is not necessary to demand organic essential oils. The process of distillation does not allow heavy metals, chemicals from fertilizers or pesticides to end up in the final product.



Do not use essential oils - of any kind! - if you are pregnant. Not even to burn in the room or in the bath water.



The price is given by other contributors. I don't live in your country.
Reply:You don't need the oil...Just go visit any

garden and ask if you can have some lavender. Cut off the flower ends and lay on

a tray in the sun to dry. When dry, rub between your fingers until separated and then put in a small cotton pouch (either you have made or you buy). Keep it under your pillowcase and yes, it is very relaxing. I love just the smell of lavender.

Another effective relaxer is get some hops

(any brewery has them, or Britain has a

lot of hops). Dry them out and do the same

as with the lavender. Hops makes you

very sleepy.
Reply:I bought some at a health food store. It was only around 15-20 dollars for a small 1 or 2 ounce bottle. Mix it with a carrier oil to make it last longer. Usually the ratio for mixing oils is 1 part scented oil to 10 parts carrier oil. this may differ slightly with various carrier oils and strength of scented oil. Experiment with the mix to see the potency of the mixed oils.
Reply:You can buy lavender oil from the Body Shop - I have it myself. I put a few drops of it in an oil burner and let it burn for an hour or so, and the smell lingers for almost the whole day, it's great. The home fragrance oil is ￡3.50, and well worth it.
Reply:If you're interested in a certified organic lavender oil, I would suggest the 100% pure essential oils fro Frontier Natural products or from Mountain Rose Herbs. Both are very good, reputable companies that sell a very high quality product.
Reply:You can get it a health food stores, at least where I live, but I don't know how much it would cost. Some of the aromatic oils are rather expensive, IMO. Good luck.
Reply:You can buy it at health food stores, many large grocery stores, GNC.....



At GNC it costs $8.99 - $22.99 depending on the size.
Reply:you can get it at whole foods, it's like $15
Reply:i got mine at bath %26amp; body for $10 and it worked well.
