short description:
Camphor essential oil is a middle note with an intense and woody aroma. Popular in topical salves for occasional achy muscles and in aromatherapy blends to support healthy breathing. Camphor oil can be found on the market under three different colors or fractions. Brown and yellow camphor are considered to be more toxic because they contain a higher percentage of safrol. Blend with other stimulating oils like cinnamon, eucalyptus, peppermint, or rosemary.
Benefits & Uses
Used cosmetically or topically in general, the cooling effects of Camphor Essential Oil can soothe inflammation, redness, sores, insect bites, itching, irritation, rashes, acne, sprains, and muscular aches and pains, such as those associated with arthritis and rheumatism. With anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, Camphor Oil is known to help protect against contagious viruses, such as those associated with cold sores, coughs, the flu, measles, and food poisoning. When applied to minor burns, rashes, and scars, Camphor Oil is known to reduce their appearance or, in some cases, remove them altogether while calming the skin with its cooling sensation. Its astringent property tightens the pores to leave the complexion looking firmer and clearer. Its anti-bacterial quality not only promotes the elimination of acne-causing germs, it also protects against harmful microbes that can potentially lead to serious infections upon entering the body through scrapes or cuts.
Used in hair, Camphor Essential Oil is known to reduce hair loss, boost growth, clean and disinfect the scalp, eliminate lice and prevent future infestations of lice, and improve texture by contributing smoothness and softness.
Used in aromatherapy applications, Camphor Oil’s lasting scent, which is similar to that of menthol and can be described as cool, clean, clear, thin, bright, and piercing, is known to promote fuller and deeper breathing. For this reason, it is commonly used in vapor rubs for its ability to offer relief to a congested respiratory system by clearing the lungs and addressing symptoms of bronchitis and pneumonia. It boosts circulation, immunity, convalescence, and relaxation, especially for those who suffer from nervous ailments such as anxiety and hysteria.
Precautions
This oil can cause skin sensitization if oxidized. Never use essential oils undiluted, in eyes or mucus membranes. Do not take internally unless working with a qualified and expert practitioner. Keep away from children. Before using topically, perform a small patch test on your inner forearm or back by applying a small quantity of diluted essential oil and apply a bandage. Wash the area if you experience any irritation. If no irritation occurs after 48 hours it is safe to use on your skin.
