We are pleased to offer two types of St. John s Wort: our popular
St. John s Wort infusion, as well as our new pure essential oil. After reviewing the GC/MS data, we simply could not pass up this outstanding specimen of St. John's Wort essential oil. We listed the major components below, which are sure to enthrall any aromatherapist and skincare formulator with endless possibilities.
St. John's Wort flowers have been cultivated in the wild in the United States, and they are painstakingly collected in the Pacific Northwest for steam distillation. It's common to find the essential oil of St. John's Wort to include other components of the plant, like branches and aerial parts, in the distillation process along with the flowers. Our St. John's Wort essential oil has been distilled with the flowers only. This is important to point out because the chemical composition of the two extractions is quite different. Comparatively, the flower-only oil is the superior of the two, both aromatically and therapeutically.
St. John’s Wort essential oil is a remarkably versatile and powerful addition to any wellness routine, boasting a plethora of healing benefits. Its aromatic profile is captivating; it releases a clear, herbaceous scent that dances between soft earthy notes and a hint of mild sweetness. The initial dry top note is evocative, reminiscent of the warm, inviting aroma of freshly baked bread, akin to that of Helichrysum. As it settles, it transforms into a rich and comforting balsamic base, creating a soothing olfactory experience. This essential oil harmonizes beautifully with various fragrances, skillfully pairing with vibrant citrus, warm spices, grounding woods, lush green florals, and earthy mossy notes.
On the therapeutic front, St. John’s Wort shines as a valuable ingredient in skincare formulations. It helps promote the regeneration of healthy skin cells, effectively soothing irritation and providing cooling relief for discomfort. When incorporated into massage oils, it enhances the experience through its remarkable pain-relieving and muscle-relaxing properties, making every session a rejuvenating retreat.
In moments of emotional strain or after a taxing day, the uplifting aroma of St. John’s Wort helps to alleviate feelings of depression and soothe anxiety, enveloping you in a sense of calm. Additionally, it serves as a natural air purifier, aiding in the removal of allergens and viruses from your surroundings. With so many benefits, St. John’s Wort essential oil is truly an indispensable ingredient for anyone looking to enrich their collection of aromatherapy essentials.
