• GROWN IN BULGARIA - Lavender essential oil is grown in many regions across the globe, however, Aura Cacia lavender is grown in Bulgaria. Lavender is harvested annually near or just after the summer solstice. The flowers only bloom for about two weeks, so the harvesting and distillation is often done all day and night. Lavender is harvested with a combine and immediately taken to the distillation facility, where the distillation process begins.
• Testing for purity and recommended applications - Gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the main method used to confirm the authentic nature of an essential oil. Aura Cacia essential oils undergo GC/MS testing in every batch. This product adheres to vegan and cruelty-free standards.
