Description
We offer natural lovage leaf essential oil for cosmetics, obtained from the plant with the botanical name Levisticum officinale. The product bears the name Lovage leaf natural essential oil for cosmetics. The oil is a liquid with a yellow-green colour, which the leaf material imparts during extraction. The colour accompanies a strong and intense scent in which fresh, green and herbal nuances are recognised, characteristic of the aboveground part of the crop. The nuances derive from the monoterpenes, which studies find to be the predominant group in the essential fraction of the aboveground parts. The monoterpenes remain intact during steam distillation, since the method separates only the volatile aroma carriers and leaves a fragrance with a clear natural profile. The fragrance originates from the leaves of a perennial herbaceous plant of the family Apiaceae. Apiaceae includes crops with divided dark green leaves, and botanists associate the characteristic smell of these species with the group of phthalide plant compounds. The leaves serve as the only part used, and the raw material for the product comes from Bulgaria. Bulgaria ensures natural cultivation of the plantations, which is why the composition retains a fully plant-based origin. The plant-based origin also explains the closeness of the scent to celery, which botanical descriptions of the species note as its lasting and recognisable mark. The advantages of the product are rooted in its natural integrity, while the intense scent remains its most tangible feature. The fragrance keeps its green direction, which reflects the plant tissue at the base of the raw material. The raw material enters the fully natural composition of the finished oil. The absence of preservatives and colourants preserves the natural character of the liquid. The liquid carries an intense herbal fragrance built on the fresh base of the raw material.

Application
Natural lovage leaf essential oil finds application in cosmetics, where it is incorporated into products for the care of the skin of the face and body. It is used in formulas for moisturising dry and dehydrated skin, for soothing sensitive and allergy-prone skin and for reducing irritation and redness. The oil supports tone and elasticity, smooths fine lines and wrinkles and promotes cell regeneration, which is why it is included in rejuvenating and restorative treatments. It is incorporated into cleansing products with herbal extracts, into products for deep pore cleansing and for treating oily and combination skin in order to regulate sebum and shine. It is suitable for products for the eye area, neck and décolleté, for the care of acne-prone skin and for firming the facial contours. The oil is also applied in formulas for protection against oxidative stress and pollutants in the urban environment, for recovery after sun exposure and after cosmetic procedures, as well as for aftershave care. It is valued in organic cosmetic ranges and natural products without synthetics, aimed at nourishing tired and sagging skin, restoring the skin barrier and reviving the natural radiance and vitality of the skin.

Storage

Store natural lovage leaf essential oil in a dark, cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Maintain a temperature from +5°C to +20°C to prevent oxidation and the loss of beneficial properties. After opening, limit the amount of air in the packaging, and as the contents decrease, transfer the remainder into a smaller, clean and dry bottle. Use only aluminium or glass bottles for cosmetic products, preferably of dark glass, which protect the essential oil for cosmetics from light. Close tightly after each use so that air and moisture do not penetrate. Observing these conditions preserves the aroma and quality of the product for a longer period.
