A member of our family has just completed the
post-graduate Tisserand course and is going on to do further training. It's
a meticulously careful training and it benefits a great number of people.
But it's not compulsory, so I never do understand why people get in such a
state about it!



On a slightly different tack but using lavender oil as a link to
gardening. I was very disappointed to see that Tisserands pure oil for
the bath STILL has Sodium lauryl/laurel sulphate in it's ingredients.
That's the one thing, sometimes called SLS that irritates my skin
making it feel like sunburn (it's an ingredient for cleaning garage
floors of oil)
Shame as I love lavender oil, so I use dried lavender instead but the
bits floating around the bath aren't actually calming


Can't you pt them in a cotton bag? Hang it under the tap while you run
the bath, get the benefits of the lavender without the bits. Sort of tea
bag for baths.
