Fennel is best known for its effect on our lymphatic and digestive systems and as such, is a useful addition to blends targeting slimming, cellulite management, puffiness, and general skin recovery.

  1. Slimming Massage Treatments to assist in the elimination of toxins by stimulating the microcirculation.
  2. Calming massage treatments that support digestive health and target bloating and wind.
  3. Skincare targeting puffiness and congestion such as products for eye bags and for skin recovery treatments.
  4. Herbal Perfumery.  From mood-enhancing spritzers through to roll-on perfumes, fennel brings an interesting blend of notes that span sweet, woody, earthy and herbal. 
  5. As part of an anti-microbial blend. Fennel has antiseptic and antibacterial properties.
