Chamomile oil is popular in aromatherapy and natural self-care due to its gentle, distinctive scent and soothing properties. However, this name covers a range of products, from a mild chamomile macerate to diluted essential oil of Roman or blue chamomile. By choosing the right type, you can tailor its use to suit your particular moment of self-care or relaxation.<\/p>\n

At De Groene Linde, you\u2019ll find Chamomile Rooms 10% oil, Chamomile Blue 10% oil and chamomile macerate in the range Monoeteric essential oils (D\u2013K)<\/a>. All three have their own specific uses and compositions.<\/p>\n

Which chamomile oil is best suited to your needs?<\/h2>\n

The most important choice is between an essential oil and a macerate. An essential oil is highly concentrated. A macerate is a vegetable base oil infused with chamomile, making it a gentle base for skincare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to use chamomile oil safely<\/h2>\n

Always read the label and follow the instructions for the specific product. Although De Groene Linde\u2019s products are already diluted in jojoba oil at 10%, it is still important to use them with care. Always test a new skincare product on a small patch of skin first and discontinue use if irritation occurs. Please also refer to the guidelines for Safe use of essential oils<\/a>.<\/p>\n
