It’s no secret—we seriously love Eucalyptus oil. In fact, we have three different Eucalyptus oils: Eucalyptus Radiata, Eucalyptus Globulus, and Eucalyptus Blue. Whether we’re steam distilling leaves from evergreen trees found in sunny Australia or on our farm in Guayaquil, Ecuador, we can’t get enough of this light, bright, refreshing essential oil.
And guess what?
3 oils = 3 times (or more!) the uses and benefits
Who says math isn’t fun?
