Profile: True Lavender Essential Oil
Details
Properties
Antibacterial: Limiting the proliferation of certain parasites (Leishmania amazonensis) and certain bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes) by altering the outer membranes of microorganisms and inhibiting their ability to communicate with each other via molecular mediators due to the action of linalool, 1,8-cineole and terpenes, in order to prevent or soothe skin eruptions ;
Anti-inflammatory: Alleviate redness, irritation and feelings of discomfort by promoting the synthesis of HSP70 proteins, which ensure the correct conformation of proteins found in the body's cells and help protect against external stresses (heat, heavy metals...) that could potentially cause inflammatory phenomena, through the action of linalool and linalyl acetate present in true lavender essential oil;
Soothing: Alleviating itchiness and heat sensations by inhibiting certain nociceptors, receptors responsible for transmitting pain within the body, through linalool and linalyl acetate;
Mattifying: Reducing the shine of oily skin by lowering the sebum rate through absorption;
Regenerative: Speeding up skin healing thanks to the camphor included in its composition by enhancing blood circulation, promoting the proliferation of fibroblasts and activating collagen synthesis.
