{"product_id":"clove-bud-essential-oil-1","title":"Clove Bud Essential Oil","description":"\u003cp\u003eHerbology Clove Bud Essential Oil is 100% pure, therapeutic grade Syzygium aromaticum (Clove) bud oil, steam distilled from the dried flower buds of the clove tree, one of the most medicinally potent and historically significant spices in human civilization. Known as \"Laung\" in Urdu and Hindi, cloves have been used in South Asian, Chinese, and Ayurvedic medicine for over 2,000 years and were among the most valuable commodities in the ancient spice trade, so prized that they were once worth more than gold by weight in medieval Europe. The Banda Islands of Indonesia, the original source of the world's clove supply, were the most fought over territory in the Age of Exploration, with European powers waging wars and establishing colonial empires specifically to control the clove trade. Clove Bud Oil specifically, as opposed to clove leaf or clove stem oil, is the most prized and therapeutically refined form of clove essential oil, with a more balanced and nuanced aromatic profile and a lower risk of skin sensitization than the leaf or stem oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClove Bud Essential Oil's primary active compound is eugenol, typically comprising 70 to 90% of the oil, one of the most extensively studied and pharmacologically active natural phenolic compounds available. Eugenol's analgesic, antimicrobial, antifungal, anti inflammatory, and antioxidant properties are so well established that it is used as the active ingredient in pharmaceutical dental preparations, surgical antiseptics, and topical analgesics worldwide. Its analgesic mechanism involves the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis and the blocking of sodium channels in nerve endings, producing a powerful numbing and pain relieving effect that is the basis of clove's legendary use for toothache relief across cultures for millennia. On the scalp, its vasodilatory and antimicrobial action stimulates circulation, addresses dandruff causing fungi, and creates a warmer, more active follicle environment. In massage, its analgesic and warming counter irritant properties provide genuine muscle and joint relief. In aromatherapy, its warm, spicy, deeply familiar aroma is one of the most comforting and grounding scents in the botanical world. Clove Bud Oil is one of the most potent essential oils available and requires very careful dilution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEugenol Analgesic and Antimicrobial Action (70 to 90%)\u003c\/strong\u003e the most pharmacologically active natural phenol; used in pharmaceutical dental preparations and surgical antiseptics worldwide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProstaglandin Inhibition and Sodium Channel Blocking\u003c\/strong\u003e dual analgesic mechanism for powerful pain relief; the science behind clove's legendary toothache remedy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScalp Stimulation and Antifungal Action\u003c\/strong\u003e vasodilatory effect stimulates follicle circulation; antifungal action addresses dandruff causing Malassezia fungi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarming Muscle and Joint Relief\u003c\/strong\u003e counter irritant and analgesic properties provide genuine warming relief for sore muscles and stiff joints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowerful Antioxidant Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e eugenol is among the most potent natural antioxidants known; protects skin and scalp from oxidative damage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% Pure and Therapeutic Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e steam distilled from clove buds specifically; more refined and less sensitizing than clove leaf or stem oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScalp stimulation and hair growth support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarming muscle and joint massage blends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAntimicrobial skin and scalp care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComforting and warming aromatherapy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIY beauty and wellness formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScalp stimulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Add 2 to 3 drops only to 30ml of carrier oil (coconut or jojoba) and massage into scalp.

Adding 2 to 3 drops to your regular hair oil blend provides a deeply warming scalp stimulation boost. Its eugenol content also makes it one of the most effective natural preservatives for DIY formulations, extending shelf life and preventing microbial contamination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Always dilute thoroughly before skin application. Maximum skin use concentration is 0.1 to 0.5% due to high sensitization potential of eugenol. Never apply undiluted. Perform a patch test before first use. Avoid during pregnancy. Avoid on sensitive or damaged skin. Do not ingest. Keep away from children. If skin irritation or burning occurs, apply carrier oil immediately to dilute and remove from skin.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Herbology","offers":[{"title":"10ml","offer_id":53372047392952,"sku":null,"price":425.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true},{"title":"30ml","offer_id":53372047425720,"sku":null,"price":1100.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true},{"title":"50ml","offer_id":53372047458488,"sku":null,"price":1700.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100ml","offer_id":53372047491256,"sku":null,"price":3200.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/1698\/5784\/files\/clove-bud-essential-oil.png?v=1776682299","url":"https:\/\/herbology.pk\/products\/clove-bud-essential-oil-1","provider":"Herbology","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
