Botanical Name: Tanacetum annuum Botanical Family: Asteraceae (Compositae)

Quick Facts

·         Extraction Method: Steam Distillation

·         Part Used: Flowering Tops

·         Aroma Note: Middle

The Profile

Tansy Blue is often confused with Common Tansy (Tanacetum vulgare), but they are chemically very different. Native to Morocco, this Mediterranean plant produces a yellow flower, yet the oil is a vibrant, deep indigo blue. This transformation happens during distillation when the compound chamazulene is released. The aroma is incredibly complex: sweet, fruity, and herbaceous with a subtle "apple-like" undertone. It is one of the most prized oils in modern luxury skincare due to its unmatched ability to calm heat and irritation.

Therapeutic Actions

Analgesic, Anti-histaminic, Anti-inflammatory (powerful), Antipruritic (relieves itching), Antispasmodic, Nervine, Sedative.

Usage & Benefits

·         Skin:The "Blue Gold" of Skincare. It is a powerhouse for "angry" skin conditions. It calms rosacea, acne, eczema, and dermatitis. It is also excellent for soothing sunburns and radiation burns.

·         Allergies: A natural antihistamine. Inhaling Blue Tansy or applying it (diluted) to the chest can help reduce the body's overreaction to allergens, especially during hay fever season.

·         Muscular/Joints: Its high chamazulene content makes it a potent anti-inflammatory for arthritis, tendonitis, and sciatica. It helps "cool" the heat of inflamed joints.

·         Respiratory: Helps ease asthma attacks and spasmodic coughs by relaxing the smooth muscles of the respiratory tract.

Emotional Benefit

Blue Tansy is the "Oil of Emotional Flow." It is specifically for those who feel "stagnant" or procrastinate because they are overwhelmed by hidden fears. Like its color, it has a cooling effect on a "heated" temper. It helps transform feelings of irritability and resistance into a state of calm self-control, allowing you to move forward with a clear, tranquil mind.

The "At Home" Remedies

1.       The "Redness Rescue" Serum: Add 1 drop of Blue Tansy to 15ml of Jojoba or Rosehip oil. Apply to the face at night to reduce redness and inflammation.

2.      The "Itch Relief" Dab: For insect bites or itchy rashes, mix 1 drop with a teaspoon of Aloe Vera gel and apply directly to the area for instant cooling relief.

3.       The "Tranquil Sleep" Inhalation: Place 1 drop on a tissue near your pillow. The high ester content helps induce a deep, sedative state for those who struggle with a "hot" or restless mind.
