Description
Ylang Ylang Extra helps you feel beautiful from the inside out. Distilled in fractions over different periods of time (about 1- 20 hours), Ylang Ylang Extra is the product of the shortest Ylang Ylang distillation with Ylang Ylang I, II, III and Complete following. As a result of short distillation, Ylang Ylang Extra contains more volatile molecules than its successive fractions giving it a more intense and well rounded aroma. Apply this aromatic essential oil topically to experience its calming, revitalizing effect. You can also add it to skincare remedies and shampoos to harness its nourishing antioxidants effects.
