Chamomile, German Blue

German Blue Chamomile is a thick, intensely blue, spicy-scented essential oil, and is the most widely used variety of Chamomile. Beauty products infused with German Blue Chamomile become soothing, anti-inflammatory skin treatments.

While Roman Chamomile is generally preferred for its antispasmodic effects, German Blue Chamomile is the preferred essential oil for anti-inflammatory effects. However, its most valued therapeutic benefits (anti-inflammatory, muscle-relaxing and skin care) are only present if the batch of oil has the correct chemical composition (see the section Dr. Streicher Says).
