Essential Oil – Myrtle (Red)

• A unique aroma that is more robust and spicy than the Green variety. It is characterized by a "camphor-like" sweetness, a spicy undertone, and a clear, herbal finish
• Primarily due to its slightly different chemical makeup and the maturity of the leaves during distillation

Respiratory & Seasonal Support

• Gentle Congestion Relief: It is a go-to oil for soothing the respiratory tract. It helps loosen mucus and clear the sinuses without being as "harsh" as some Eucalyptus oils.

• Nighttime Breathing: Often used in diffusers at night to promote clear airways and a peaceful sleep, especially for those prone to nighttime coughs.

• Air Purification: Helps to neutralize airborne irritants and "stale" air, making it a great choice for shared living spaces or offices.

Mental & Emotional Balance

• Overcoming Addictive Patterns: In emotional aromatherapy, it is used to help individuals break free from self-destructive habits or "foggy" thinking.

• Promoting Inner Peace: Its clean, herbal scent helps to quiet a racing mind and resolve internal conflict or disharmony.

• Mental Clarity: Used during study or work to sharpen focus and reduce the "heaviness" of mental fatigue.

Skincare & Astringent Properties

• Balancing Oily Skin: Its natural astringent properties make it excellent for balancing overactive sebaceous glands and refining large pores.

• Acne Support: Used (properly diluted) to cleanse the skin and reduce the appearance of blemishes due to its antiseptic nature.

• Mature Skin Tonic: Helps to "tone" the skin, giving it a firmer and more revitalized appearance.

Physical Wellness

• Hormonal Harmony: Historically used to help balance the "inner fire" and support the thyroid and endocrine system (when used by experienced practitioners).

• Soothing Muscles: Its warming, spicy undertone makes it a lovely addition to massage oils for soothing tired muscles and supporting healthy circulation.

• Has a unique aroma that is more robust and spicy than the Green variety. It is characterized by a "camphor-like" sweetness, a spicy undertone, and a clear, herbal finish
• As a middle note, Myrtle Red is incredibly versatile, especially for respiratory and skin-clearing blends
