Frequently Asked Questions
How to use Myrtle essential oil?
  • There are several ways to effectively use Myrtle essential oil and obtain its benefits, including 1.)

What’s the difference between Myrtle and Lemon Myrtle essential oil?
  • Lemon Myrtle (Backhousia citriodora) and Myrtle (Myrtus communis) are most similar in name rather than chemical composition and aroma. Myrtle is herbaceous, sweet, medicinal, and earthy. Lemon Myrtle is citrusy, sweet, tart and fresh. Therapeutically, Lemon Myrtle adds extra strength to cleansers because of its antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, meaning you don’t have to work as hard. It can also help sharpen the mind during foggy moments. Native to the Mediterranean and Western Asia, Myrtle grows from evergreen shrubs that produce fragrant pink and white flowers. Because of its potent antibacterial and anti-fungal properties, Myrtle is also a phenomenal addition to any all-natural household cleaner as well as in skincare blends.
What does Myrtle essential oil look like?
  • The Myrtle plant, Myrtus communis, is an evergreen shrub that is beautifully fragrant. Its leaves are glossy and green and the flowers that bloom from this shrub are star shaped and have long stamens. The flowers produce a berry that is purple to black in color. The essential oil is made from the leaves and the fruit and it is considered a top note with a thin consistency that is pale yellow in color.
How to apply Myrtle essential oil?
  • There are a few ways to use Myrtle essential oil to enjoy its full benefits effectively, including 1.) Dilute it to 1% by combining 6 drops of Myrtle and 1 oz of carrier oil or unscented lotion. Apply it topically as a skin-nourishing moisturizer. Alternatively, use this blend as a facial order by applying it to the face and neck as the last part in your skincare routine. 2.) Create an on-the-go roll-on by adding 6 drops Myrtle in a 10 ml roll-on, then top off with carrier oil. Apply to pulse points such as the neck and wrists.
How to use Myrtle essential oil for cough?
  • Myrtle essential oil is often celebrated for its ability to improve respiratory circulation. The oil acts as an expectorant to aid coughs, congestion, and other respiratory ailments. It can also help reduce inflammation which can loosen mucus for clearer breathing. To use Myrtle for coughing, create a chest rub by combining 1 oz unscented lotion and 12 drops Myrtle. Apply directly to the chest taking slow breaths.
