Rosalina

What is Rosalina?

Rosalina essential oil, sometimes called lavender tea tree, comes from the Melaleuca ericifolia plant, native to Australia. It has a calming, floral, and slightly woody aroma, making it ideal for supporting relaxation and respiratory health. Rosalina is gentle and suitable for children, making it a popular alternative to tea tree and eucalyptus.

Why do I have an intolerance?

Intolerance to Rosalina oil may stem from its cineole content, which can cause mild irritation for individuals sensitive to camphoraceous oils. Though it is gentler than tea tree, its respiratory effects can still be too strong for some people.

What can I do about it?

To manage intolerance to Rosalina, dilute it with a carrier oil for topical use or use it sparingly in a diffuser. Blending Rosalina with lighter floral oils, such as chamomile or lavender, can help soften its scent while retaining its relaxing benefits. If it causes respiratory irritation, reduce diffusion time and ensure proper ventilation.
