Native lavender is a characteristic semi-shrub or dwarf shrub of the genus Lavandula in the Lamiaceae family. It has distinct morphological features: branches are erect with stellate tomentose, denser on young parts; older branches are grayish brown or dark brown with striate cortex, and have both long flowering branches and short renewing branches; leaves are linear or lanceolate, with larger leaves on flowering branches, and inflorescences turn grayish white or green when dry; it bears cymes with numerous flowers, clustered into interrupted or nearly continuous spikes at branch apices, and the spikes are long; flowers are shortly pedicellate and blue; calyx is ovate-tubular or subtubular; anthers are hairy; the fruit is a smooth nut. It flowers in June.

Native lavender has strong environmental adaptability, preferring dry and cold climates and being most suitable for northern summers with long-term sunshine but mild solar heat. It can even withstand winter snow and ice. It is mainly transplanted in dry alkaline soil and cultivated in well-drained, well-ventilated areas, which ensures the accumulation of its rich active ingredients.

Lavender Extract is refined from high-quality lavender raw materials, with core effects including soothing tension, calming the mind, calming the breath, controlling oil, promoting regeneration, reducing inflammation and repairing skin. It is widely used in beauty products, with diverse skincare functions: it can promote cell regeneration, balance oil secretion, improve burns and sunburns, remove dark circles, promote the recovery of damaged tissue regeneration, fade scars, and inhibit bacterial growth. In addition, it also helps promote hair growth and improve hair quality.

Lavender Extract has comprehensive skincare effects: it can clear heat and detoxify, clean skin, control oil, lighten freckles and whiten skin, reduce wrinkles, remove dark circles, and promote the regeneration and repair of damaged tissue. Its effect on solving skin problems through oil conditioning methods is very significant, and it is natural and free of side effects, making it the first choice for people with various skin troubles.

For the human body, it also has the effects of beautifying skin, relieving pressure and relaxing muscles. Lavender essential oil (a concentrated form of lavender extract) is known as “plant hormone”—in fact, the properties of many essential oils are similar to human hormones, playing a pivotal role in human skin care.

The essential oil exerts its health effects through the olfactory pathway: when inhaled, it stimulates the olfactory nerve, which transmits the stimulation to the brain center and triggers brain excitement. On the one hand, it regulates nerve activity and dominates the function of the nervous system; on the other hand, it regulates the secretion of glands through nerve regulation, thereby balancing the whole internal environment of the human body.
