Product Overview

Some scents invite gentle stillness

Lavender Rosemary is gentle, herbal, and quietly clarifying, where soft floral notes meet the fresh green character of rosemary. The aroma is light and close to the skin—never overpowering—designed to linger delicately in warm steam, on towels, and on freshly bathed skin.

Whether added to a bath, used for massage, or smoothed onto damp skin after showering, this aromatic oil brings a sense of calm order and ease to simple moments of care, turning them into a slow, restorative pause.

The Aroma

The scent opens with the familiar softness of lavender—clean, floral, and lightly comforting. Rosemary follows with a cool, green brightness that adds clarity and structure without sharpness. As the aroma settles, the two notes blend into something smooth and balanced, neither sweet nor heavy.

The overall fragrance is softly floral with fresh herbal undertones—calm, composed, and quietly refreshing.

On the Skin

A nutrient-rich blend of soothing organic oils leaves the skin feeling soft, supple, and conditioned. As a massage and body oil, the lightweight texture glides on smoothly and sinks in slowly, creating a velvety finish that feels deeply nourishing.

In the bath, the oil blooms into warm water, forming a delicate, silky layer that settles gently onto the skin, leaving it wrapped in comfort that lingers long after the water is gone.

Plant oils do not add water to the skin; instead, they help slow moisture loss and support the skin’s natural barrier—so skin feels touchably soft and comfortably moisturized long after you step out of the bath or finish your massage.

Botanical Infusion

The oil is gently infused with organic lavender flowers, chosen not only for their aroma, but for the quiet character they bring to the experience. As the buds slowly steep, they lend the oil a soft herbal-floral warmth and a silky, cushioned feel on the skin. The infusion is meant to be felt —subtle and comforting—adding a layer of sensory softness to the ritual itself and leaving the skin feeling nurtured and relaxed.

The Experience

For moments that call for stillness and clarity—when you want your space to feel calm, clean, and gently grounded in the simple beauty of herbs and flowers.

For a moisturizing after-shower treat, add a treatment pump or sprayer

Reviews

Banana For Scale

"I honestly bought this just to fill my cart to get to free shipping. This will become a regular buy for me! I’ve used this oil just after a shower and I think it does just an OK job of moisturizing. Where it REALLY shines is adding a light splash to your bath water. Soak your achy muscles in the tub with this beautifully scented oil and let your cares float away. I come out of the tub smelling like lavender and rosemary and still feeling a light layer of moisturizer on my skin even after towel drying. This one is definitely worth the price to feel like high end luxury at the end of a long week. Picture with banana for scale for those, like me, who cannot determine size based off oz."

Great product but the bottle is too easy to spill

"I love the way it makes my skin feel and it smells wonderful but I've knocked the bottle over and wasted a bit of it. The screw-on cap leads to a wide-mouth bottle opening that doesn't stem the flow. I ended up putting a cap from some baby shampoo on it."

— Madison S. (5/5)

Skincare

"I like the softness and the coverage on the skin."

Q&A

can i use this on my scalp and hair: Hi There, Thanks for your question! You can certainly try to use this on your hair and scalp; however, due to the blends of oils used in our body oils, it may be a bit heavy on your hair and scalp and leave you feeling oily. We do have hair oils and balms that can be found here on our website if you're interested (https://www.chagrinvalleysoapandsalve.com/products/natural-hair/natural-hair-conditioners/). Hope this helps! Thanks again for reaching out and please contact us anytime with additional questions. -Christina
Why do you use sunflower oil in your body oil?: Hi Patti! Sunflower Oil, Helianthus annuus, expeller pressed from the seeds, is very high in essential fatty acids and helps to moisturize, regenerate and condition the skin. This oil is easily absorbed and can be used on all skin types. It is high in tocopherols (vitamin E), a natural antioxidant, making it especially helpful for delicate, dry or mature skin. It is known to be one of the most moisturizing vegetable oils. In hair care, nutrient-rich sunflower oil moisturizes, nourishes and protects for silky, strong, healthy hair. Sunflower oil is said to be a hair strengthener and prevent aging of the hair follicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are essential oils?

What Are Pure Essential Oils?

Have you ever enjoyed the scent of a fragrant flower or herb? The fragrance comes from potent, aromatic compounds called essential oils found in the flowers, stems, seeds, bark, roots, fruits, and other parts of plants. It often requires several pounds of a plant to produce a single bottle of essential oil.

Essential oils not only give plants their unique scents but also help lure plant pollinators and protect plants from insects and other predators.

The chemical composition of essential oils may provide valuable psychological and physical aromatherapeutic benefits for some people.

It is important to note that to be a true essential oil, the oil must be isolated from the plant material by physical means only. Essential oils are NEVER extracted using solvents.

Although synthetic fragrances or "nature identical" oils are available at a much lower cost, only natural plant essential oils will provide any aromatherapeutic benefits.

If you are pregnant or under a doctor's care for any medical condition, please consult your healthcare provider before using essential oils.

Pregnancy & Children: We do not provide information on the safety of essential oils during Pregnancy or for use in Children because the available information is very ambiguous and often contradictory. If you’re interested in using essential oils during pregnancy or with young children please do your own research and consult your doctor, midwife, or health care professional before use.

Is There an Expiration Date On My Natural Skincare Product?

Product Expiration Dates

Natural Organic Skin Care Products We hand make all of our own products in small batches to ensure freshness, consistency, and perfection.

Our products are not made to sit on store shelves for years and years.

Although there are natural preservatives within the chemical structure of many natural ingredients, they not as potent as the synthetic preservatives used in commercial products to prolong shelf-life.

Other than soap, our products are remade every few weeks and none are very old when they are sold. Our non-soap products should be opened within 6 months of purchase.

Since we use no preservatives or chemical stabilizers, the more important question is, "how long will the product last once it has been opened?

Once opened, skin care products become exposed to dirt and microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, and molds) that are found in the air and on the skin.

As soon as you open and begin to use any product, simply the way in which you use it will affect its lifespan.

So, we use the PAO (period-after-opening) symbol. These symbols are already available on the product pages of our website and we are in the process of adding them to all of our labels.

The POA symbol is a standard symbol that identifies the useful lifetime of a skin care product after it has been opened for the first time.

As you can see from the picture, the symbol is an open jar with a written number and the letter "M" for the word "months."

A product with a "9M" would mean that it is good for 9 months after opening.

Tip: write the date you open a product for the first time on its label so you can keep track of the period after opening.

Our POA number represents our best suggestion. There are many factors that can affect the lifespan of a product. If a product is discolored, has an unpleasant smell or looks odd, the product should not be used and should be discarded.

Each time you place your warm fingers into a tin or jar, you melt some of the butter which can change the consistency of the product.
Fingers also introduce bacteria and other contaminants into the product.
If a product has not been stored properly, for example, if the lid has been left off for long periods of time, the product may ‘go off’ before the period after opening has passed.
As scented products age, some of the natural essential oil scent may be lost. Pure essential oils just do not have the staying power of synthetic fragrance oils.
Over time, natural colors may also fade.

If you’re like me, and you find an old dusty product hiding in a drawer, makeup bag, or even a suitcase from your last trip, you can call us with the lot number and we can verify its age. Obviously, if it seems off in any way, toss it!

Please note: This PAO symbol is widely used in Europe to recommend the length of time a product remains usable after opening, for products that have a shelf-life of at least 30 months. Our products do NOT have a shelf-life of 30 months before opening.

What is aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the inhaled or topical use of aromatic plant essences like essential oils to support wellbeing and help maintain the balance of the mind, body, and spirit.

Aromatherapy has been used by ancient cultures for thousands of years to promote psychological and physical wellbeing.

There are a variety of ways to add a bit of aromatherapy into your life using essential oils. Each essential oil offers a range of unique aromatherapeutic properties, uses, and effects. Different oils can also be combined to create a synergistic blend with its own unique benefits.

So how and why does the aroma of essential oils affect our mood? The way in which our sense of smell is wired to our brain is quite unique among our senses. The part of your brain that processes and interprets scents also deals with memory and emotions. This relationship may help explain why smells often trigger specific memories or emotions.

When we inhale through our nose, the scent molecules in essential oils travel across millions of tiny olfactory neurons that sit on the roof of the nasal cavity.

Once triggered, the olfactory neurons send messages to the olfactory bulbs, two lobes at the base of the brain. But olfactory messages do not stop there. They also trigger brain regions like the limbic system which plays an important role in emotion, mood, stress levels, and behavior as well as heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and memory.

Essential oils can lift your mood and make you feel fabulous with a simple whiff of their natural aroma. Each oil has a different chemical make-up and therefore a different effect.

The purpose of aromatherapy is to elicit some reaction in the body. Since we are all unique, not all oils will benefit everyone in the same manner. There is some research and a lot of anecdotal evidence that has shown the positive benefits of aromatherapy, such as relief from anxiety, improved sleep, and improved quality of life. But there is still so much to learn.

For more detailed information I would like to point you to our blog “What is Aromatherapy?” especially the sections near the bottom entitled "Safety" and “Research.”

There I explore questions like Safety, Can Essential Oils Be Absorbed Through the Skin? and Are the Effects of Aromatherapy Real or Placebo?
