Purification™


The name says it all, this oil is useful for cleaning just about anything! It is antibacterial and antifungal.  You can diffuse to purify the air and neutralize bad odors.  Or put a couple drops on a wet washrag and put it in the dryer with the clothes.  It also helps to disinfect scrapes and cuts.


It is very useful during picnics and other outdoor activities, as it repels insects.  And it helps soothe the itch of insect bites.

It consists of:

Citronella (Cymbopogon nardus)

Lemongrass (Cymbopogon flexuosus)
     Cleanses; kills fungi and bacteria

Lavandin (Lavendula x hybrida)

Melaleuca (Melaleuca alternifolia) also called tea tree
