Buy Laurel Berry Oil

Laurel Berry Oil, derived from Laurus nobilis, a shrub native to the Mediterranean regions of Greece and Turkey, has been valued for centuries for its aromatic leaves and berries. In Greek culture, Bay Laurel is associated with success, strength, and victory, often used to make fragrant wreaths symbolizing these qualities.
This oil is extracted from the berries and seeds of the Bay Laurel plant, using a traditional method of boiling the berries until the pulp and seeds separate. The oil rises to the surface, where it is carefully collected to preserve its purity, freshness, and nutritive qualities. Unlike Laurel Leaf Essential Oil, which is steam-distilled from the leaves, Laurel Berry Oil is thicker, opaque, and more aromatic, due to its high content of unsaponifiable components.
 
Uses
Laurel Berry Oil has a rich history of topical use for a variety of skin and health concerns. It is particularly effective for moisturizing dry, flaky skin and sensitive skin conditions. It can also help soothe irritated scalp issues and hydrate dry, brittle hair. Known for its gentle, protective, and cleansing properties, this oil is widely appreciated for its ability to support healthy skin.
 
Historically, Laurel Berry Oil has been used to make Aleppo soap, a mild yet highly cleansing soap popular as an alternative to commercial antibacterial soaps. Aleppo soap, believed to have originated in Aleppo, Syria, is renowned for its benefits and suitability for all skin types.
