HE LAVANDE OFF BIO 10 ML PHYTOSUN

Phytosun invites you to discover the precious virtues of its Essential Oils (E.O.): calming, energising, balancing, purifying... The range of uses is vast, but it is important to bear in mind that each E.O. has specific properties, and that each is a very pure and concentrated substance which requires precautions in use and, whenever necessary, the advice of a health professional.

Phytosun Arôms only offers Botanically and Biochemically Defined E.O.s. H.E.B.B.D. quality criteria specify that the E.O.s are 100% pure and natural, derived solely from the distillation of aromatic plants, guaranteed not modified or diluted, not deterpenated, not rectified and not reconstituted. Each batch of E.H. undergoes rigorous checks: botanical species, geographical origin, method of cultivation (conventional, wild, organic), producing organ, method of extraction (cold pressing or distillation), biochemical specificity and composition (determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry) and proportion of the various components (determined by gas chromatography/flame ionisation detector). Quality and traceability are essential.
