Cedarwood Oil
Aromatic, woodsy-smelling Cedarwood oil (Juniperus virginiana) is probably most often associated with pencil shavings and gerbil cages. However the oil of cedarwood (the US plant) is traditionally used as a general tonic, sensual stimulant, inhalant ingredient, and insect repellant. Cedarwood oil can also be helpful for troubled skin and hair. Recommended by Cayce in massage, its applications include bath oil, facial wash, inhalant ingredient and closet scent. Avoid during pregnancy.
Ingredient: Juniperus virginiana from the United States
Directions: Fragrant cedarwood was used by ancient Egyptians as a temple incense. Today in aromatherapy it is used to discourage insects as well as a grounding, woodsy essence in massage oils.
Caution: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. If irritation, redness or discomfort occurs, discontinue use and consult a licensed health care practitioner. Dilute properly before use.
