The steam-gasoline mixture rises in the swan neck, then cools in the coil. After condensation, it becomes liquid again. The oil rises to the surface, as it is lighter than water.<br \/>The essencier is fitted with two taps: the higher one collects the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lavande-bio.fr\/categorie-produit\/huile-essentielle-bio\/huile-essentielle-de-lavandin\/\">essential oil<\/a>. <\/strong>The lower one is for removing the distilled water: &#8220;hydrolat&#8221;.<br \/>There are two ways of distilling:<\/p><p>The <strong>conventional method<\/strong>: the flowers and stems are crushed and rapidly distilled.<br \/>The <strong>traditional method<\/strong>: the stems and cut flowers are not crushed, but collected after at least a day&#8217;s drying in the fields, and then distilled.<br \/>50% of the world&#8217;s production of lavandin essential oil is French.<\/p><h3>Properties of lavandin grosso<\/h3><p>Today, lavandin is mainly used in perfumes and detergents.<br \/>It is also used in aromatherapy for its anti-burn, soothing and muscle-relaxing properties.<br \/>It is also very effective against lice, moths&#8230;<\/p><p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>Lavandin is not edible.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><h3>A few tips for use<\/h3><p>Against lice: 4 drops behind the ears (put some on children&#8217;s wrists 24 hours beforehand to prevent an allergic reaction)<br \/>Against moths: 3 drops on a cloth in the cupboards.<br \/>Against mosquitoes: 5 drops in a diffuser.<br \/>You can put a capful in the mop bucket or in the washing powder to replace the fabric softener.<br \/>In case of cramps: dilute the oil in a vegetable cream then massage the affected areas.<\/p><p>Deodorant with natural ingredients<\/p><p>Warm water 500ml<br \/>Spray bottle<br \/>1 tablespoon baking soda<br \/>20 drops lavandin<\/p><p><strong>Preparation:<\/strong><\/p><p>Put the water, baking soda and essential oil in a bottle and shake to mix the ingredients.<\/p><p>This blend is excellent for eliminating unpleasant odors, disinfecting and purifying the atmosphere.
