Cosmetic experts also use lavender to treat conditions on the skin as it is a natural regenerator of cells and tissues that can treat wounds, burns, scars and improve the texture of the skin. Also, when you suffer from certain skin conditions such as acne and blemishes, lavender can be very effective. But it´s important to know that when you are under lavender´s treatment you should avoid being too much exposed to sun.

Lavender is also used as a tonic; some people mix it up with water and use a cotton wool to apply it on your face to refresh, moisturize, close the pores and balance the skin after a treatment or after removing the makeup.
