A member of the mint family, oregano essential oil has been used in folk medicine for thousands of years.
Pure oregano oil has a strong herbal smell that can be quite potent, and so is used less often for its scent and more for its powerful antibacterial effects..
Oregano is an incredibly cleansing, healing oil and is often used as a natural facewash thanks to its ability to help fight bacteria and fungi.
