Neem oil is a very useful carrier oil to learn about for skin, scalp, and other blending needs. It possesses antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-parasitic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties.
There is one very important thing about Neem that the uninitiated needs to know. Neem has a very STRONG odor. It isn't necessarily a bad odor, but it can be over powering. I have encountered some Neem oils that I just could not stomach regardless of how well they worked. Then again, I never had major dry, cracked and itchy skin. So after a few failures, I took a break from Neem for awhile. It was time for me to revisit this great skin oil as my hubby has very dry itchy skin.
The Oleavine Neem oil I tried is very effective, almost instantly Hubby's itching stopped. Equally importantly to me, the blender and applier, it has a tolerable odor. It is still strong, as I expect all Neem to be, but it is more toasted nuts, than dead fish and compost. (Yes really, some are that bad.)
Neem oil is usually used as a low dilution of a carrier oil blend. You might start at 2% Neem and see if you get the desired results before slowly increasing the percentage until you find the right amount for your needs. Neem oil would also be a great addition to hair and scalp treatments. It can be used straight safely but as with many things, less can be just as effective.
So for a great Neem oil that works without making your eyes water;
Oleavine Neem oil !
