Emotional & spiritual benefits
Rosalina has a soft, gentle effect on the mind and body. It is not overly stimulating like other Melaleucas. It supports a calm, relaxed outlook and can help alleviate irritability or nervousness.
Cosmetic benefits
The Linalool and Cineole content of Rosalina imparts similar properties to Lavender. It can help minimise breakouts and reduce the severity of acne. It is also useful for insect bites or allergies as it can reduce itchiness.
Formulation types
Rosalina is a wonderful inclusion in many different skincare products. You can add it to hand and body wash, soap, shampoo and conditioners. It is also suitable for massage oils, moisturising products, calming essential oil blends and more.
