    I've done some reading on the internet about essential oils, and I understand that lavender essential oil is supposed to be good for the skin. Has anyone had any experience using lavender eo?

    I have used it..diluted with other EO's I didn't use it on my skin for an extended amount of time..So, I didn't notice any significant results...However it made my legs shine! :tiptoe

    i use it diluted with water on a qtip for spot treatment of blemishes and recently on cold sores that are developing. it's been working great on both of those, although i'm sure mixing it with tea tree eo on the developing cold sore would work loads faster

    I have not tried lavander eo yet, but I have had success with using a blend of ecualyptus and patchouli

    patchouli oil mixed with a bit of jojoba oil works well for keeping the skin supple
