I recently picked up two brand new products from Blue Labelle (I blame the newsletter - it piqued my interest and I knew I had to have!) in the form of their Les Voleurs (Four Thieves) Essential Oil and diluted plant oil blend. Both are currently on introductory prices - £9 for the neat Essential Oil (10ml) and £12 for the 30ml diluted plant oil blend.
They are a potent and powerful blend of essential oils based on the legend of the Four Thieves - a band of thieves robbed the possessions of dead bodies during the bubonic plague in 15th century France - they didn't however catch the infection. When arrested the judge wanted to know their secret - for a more lenient sentence the robbers told him they blended botanicals in vinegar which helped ward off infections. The extracts used were cinnamon, clove, rosemary and lemon - Pascale, at Blue Labelle adds lavender, eucalyptus and tea tree - a blend which purifies the air and invigorates the senses - it really has a heady aromatic punch!
The Essential Oil can be used in diffuser/oil burner or add a few drops to hand wash, make up a cleaner with water and vinegar in a spray bottle or add a few drops to floor cleaning water or to deodorise a bin while the Diluted Plant Oil Blend is best used to refresh hands and feet or add a small amount to a running bath (it's not for face/whole body use).
I love the "story" behind the products as well as finding them very effective. Pick yours up HERE (the physical shop at Ventnor is temporarily closed but the online shop is open!)
