Turmeric Essential Oil
Turmeric has been used for thousands of years as a medicinal herb to cure a variety of ailments. Turmeric essential oil has a spicy-woody perfume that is comparable to that of the powdered spice used in Eastern cuisine, but it is even more bright and delectable. It has a warm, spicy perfume with mild woody undertones, suggestive of ginger.

Repeat weekly, preferably before bedtime for the oils to soak in and for naturally soft heels in the morning.

Kambio Nature was created by a French family who fell in love with Cambodia and its nature in 2013. In recent years, the increasing use of chemical ingredients in skin care products and its impact on the environment caught their attention. In 2014, they produced the first distillations of essential oils in Siem Reap and in 2015, Kambio Nature was launched. The name is derived from Kampuchea (the ancient country name for Cambodia) and Bio for natural. All products are organic and made responsibly with the European ECOCERT standard.
