Aniseed China Star (Star Anise) essential oil has a spicy-sweet, warm, licorice-like aroma and is believed the help with digestive problems, cramps and nausea. A useful oil to keep handy in the cupboard!
Essential oils should not be applied directly to the skin and are usually mixed with a base or carrier oil like sweet almond, grapeseed, jojoba or avocado. Add a few drops to your bath water, or you can use this oil for a pleasant fragrance in an oil burner or diffuser.
Always consult an authorised practitioner when using essential oil as a health remedy.
