BASIL
(OCIMUM BASILICUM)
100% NATURAL AND PURE FOOD GRADE ESSENTIAL OIL
CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS
Main constituent is Estragole which makes it a great oil for
relaxation. Eucalyptol in combination with Linalool makes this
oil perfect for muscle relaxation after a workout. Eucalyptol may also help with respiratory
conditions. A group of phenolic compounds found in basil also make it a great antioxidant source.
WETALITY’S PRODUCTION METHOD
Wetality Basil Essential Oil is produced by steam distillation of the
leaves of the sweet Basil herb.
MIX
Basil essential oil blends well with citrus, spice and floral
essential oils, such as lavender,
eucalyptus, pine. Blend it with lemon to boost mental focus or with peppermint to energize body and
mind before a workout.
USE
Aromatic:
Add a few drops in a diffuser to energize and uplift the mind or relieve symptoms of respiratory discomfort. Combine a few drops with lavender in a diffuser and relax after a long working day. During the day, when you need to focus, you can combine it with lemon and peppermint.
Add a few drops into a water tank and spray any surface to eliminate odor-causing bacteria (in sweat) - works great on clothes and laundry.
Topical: Add a few drops of basil, lavender and peppermint to a carrier oil and massage onto sore muscles – help them relax after a workout. You can use this also to help with muscle aches.
If you suffer from headaches, you can dilute it (+ combine it with Boswellia) and massage the temples (make sure to avoid eyes !). Try it if it helps, together with your standard routine.
As an additional relief when suffering from earache, dilute a drop or two in a carrier oil and massage behind the ears several times daily. It is not medicine so seek professional help! It can also be used as a great insect repellent.
USEFUL TIPS
Don't have fresh basil around? You can use a really small
amount of essential oil to flavour your dishes (the ones, where you would normally use basil). It should be avoided during pregnancy and breast-feeding.
Add water to a punch bowl and mix with 10 drops of Basil, then set floating candles on top. It will be a main pleasant-smelling attraction on your outside barbecue gatherings and keep the insects away. Mix with a base oil and rub into tight muscles after a workout to loosen them up.
Use it to remove bacteria from surfaces and freshen the air, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. To create a homemade air freshener, take 6 drops of Basil and 7 drops of Tea Tree and mix in a liter of water in a glass spray bottle.
CAUTION
Always dilute in a carrier oil before skin application. Avoid
sensitive areas. Avoid eye contact and mucus membranes. Do not ingest. Do not use if pregnant or under the care of a medical
practitioner.
When mixed with peppermint, basil works as an antifungal and can be used as an aid for such purposes.
To relieve airways: mix 10-20 drops in a bowl of boiling water water and inhale with towel over head.
To disinfect, add a drop to your hand/foot cream, or in 1 teaspoon carrier oil and apply to the minor scratches.
Mix 20 drops in 1 dl vodka, white vinegar or water to clean garden furniture and damp areas with mold.
