Description
CLARY SAGE
Salvia sclarea
Clary sage (Salvia sclarea) is a biennial herbaceous perennial plant of the Lamiaceae family, native to Europe and Western Asia.
Directions
You must not use sage if you have over-indulged in alcohol. The combination of the two causes nausea, vomiting, migraine and nightmares. Not to be confused with common sage, used for extemporaneous preparations. This latter is reserved for medical use as the essential oil is neurotoxic and abortive!
Warnings
Do not use in: pregnant or breast-feeding women, children under the age of twelve years (hormone interference), subjects with asthma without the advice of an allergologist before the first use, persons having suffered from a hormone-dependent cancer or with serious lesions to hormone-sensitive organs (breasts, ovaries, uterus).
Recipes
Acne
150 ml in equal proportions of hydrolates of common sage, common lavender, Roman chamomile and rosemary verbenone. For acne-prone skins, use this mixture of hydrolates, that are more gentle than essential oils. When used morning and evening, after washing with neutral or slightly acidic soap, this lotion allows the skin to gently regain its clarity.
Amenorrhoea or premenstrual syndrome
15 to 20 drops of essential oil of clary sage, 10 ml of plant oil. Mix the essential oil of clary sage with neutral carrier oil and massage the abdomen in the morning for one to two weeks.
