Additional reading
The Sea Fennel plant, also known as Rock Samphire or Rock Fennel, has a history of medicinal use as far back as Ancient Greece. So it’s no surprise that our Sea Fennel is sourced from Greece! As a coastal plant, some find Sea Fennel carries the briny scent of the sea while others smell the aroma as a fresh, lemony carrot. No matter what you smell, it has some incredible benefits that you won’t want to miss out on.
Glowing Skin
If there’s one thing above all else that Sea Fennel excels at, it’s skincare. It has incredible skin-renewing and regenerative properties. It helps smooth, brighten and improve the overall appearance and tone of your skin. So whether you have aging skin or are looking to smooth out the appearance of dimples and ripples, this oil can help. For an anti-aging serum, blend 2 drops with 2 drops of Frankincense Frereana, and 2 drops of Orange Blood in 1 ounce of your favorite facial serum or moisturizer.
Better Digestion
Every once in a while, or maybe more often than that, digestion issues come around. So next time you’re feeling some stomach trouble, whether it’s gas, bloating or just your average stomach ache, try applying Sea Fennel topically to your abdomen. Dilute it in your favorite carrier oil and massage in a clockwise motion.
So Long Congestion
It’s getting close to that time of year again. The time where seasonal bugs get passed around at school, at work and somehow, they make their way to your home. If you’re unlucky enough to end up with congestion due to sickness or allergies, try adding a few drops to your diffuser to help ease the symptoms and get you breathing clear again.
That’s Not All
In addition to helping ease congestion, it’s also a great oil to have on hand during times of seasonal illness as it helps boost your immune system!
