Oh, I also forgot to tell you - if you ever decide to apply any essential oils topically, you need to be sure you don't first need to dilute them. If you do - all you need to do is blend about 1 part of the oil you want to use to about 6-8 parts of a base oil (such as coconut oil amongst others) but lavender is a very light oil so most people will have no trouble with it - but if you decide to apply topically or ingest, apply just one drop on the top of hand first and make sure no reactions for a couple hours - if not it is fine (very few have problems with lavender, its mostly your stronger more potent oils that you will need to be careful of - generally the rule of thumb with oils is if you already know you are allergic to something, do not use the oil because there are several oils almost every ailment
