Since it's summer and the rage in the natural, green girl talk is fresh basil in gardens, using in salads, cocktails, while cooking and even using the essential oil as a natural insect repellent for pesky flies.
Wanna know what else this bad-ass oil can do?
It is one of the best essential oils for alertness
As for skin care...well its great for congested skin, acne and because it encourages circulation is is great for your complexion! Dilute verrrryy well (1% e/o in carrier) in a carrier oil that suits you skin type.
But of course, as always, check with your aromatherapist, holistic health practitioner or other healthcare provider before using anything on your own! ;)
