Chamomile Roman has a sweet, fruity odor often referred to as apple-like. This essential oil helps promote a sense of inner peace and calm, reduces stress and anxiety, and promotes restful sleep. It can be supportive of healthy reproductive and digestive systems. Chamomile is anti-inflammatory and is often used as a balm for muscle soreness, spasm, and joint pain. Its anti-inflammatory properties also make it an excellent essential oil for skin care and minor wound treatment, like soothing insect bites. This has already been diluted to 10% in Jojoba oil to make it more affordable, but we suggest diluting further to a 3% therapeutic level before using it on the skin.
This oil is generally considered safe for use on pets. Before topical use on pets, essential oils should be diluted to approximately 0.25%.
Tip: Chamomile is great for soothing insect bites and stings. You can make your own poultice with bentonite clay or keep it simple with a roll-on. See recipes in our blog collection for Bite & Sting Poultice with Lavender and Chamomile.
